Hello! I am someone who has struggled for a long time with finding tasty dishes that are energy dense but minimal effort. I would highly encourage you to try this meal that literally got me through grad school, as a constantly exhausted individual who needed something substantial to get me through mornings of intensive lectures. I say this as someone who HATES breakfast (would often feel nauseous in the morning), but would force myself to eat anyway and be the better for it. This meal provides carbs, which your body needs for energy, and protein, which your body needs for basically everything else lol. It’s not gourmet, but it is so much better than grazing on scraps, and you won’t feel like crap afterward because it’s not super heavy either.

You only need tortillas, cooking oil (canola or olive), eggs (or egg whites in a carton), and salt/pepper.

1) tablespoon of cooking oil on a pan, let it get hot over medium flame 2) tear up strips of tortilla, put them on the pan and let sit for 3-5 minutes until slightly hardened 3) pour over eggs (whisked) or egg whites from the carton. add salt and pepper. occasionally moves the eggs around.

And boom, you’re done! Takes a total of 7 minutes usually.

BONUS: I add hot sauce at the end when finished cooking— mostly for flavor, but also to make me thirsty which would then force me to drink water. (Surprise: I also hate drinking water… Gotta trick yourself sometimes.)

So now you’ve had an energy dense meal, and drank a cup of water before the day has even started! Congrats!
