Why People Are Skinny Fat (and How to Fix It)
Are you skinny fat? Here are the three things you must do to fix it . . .
Read MoreIf your idea of quiche is a delicate lunch with the ladies, think again–it’s a delicious and economical way to eat and leaves plenty of leftovers.
Start with eggs and/or egg whites and include your favorite fillings and seasonings and you’ll have a baked breakfast, lunch, or dinner in under an hour. If you want the full homemade experience, you can even make your own dough and keep it refrigerated or frozen.
And when I say “your favorite fillings and seasonings,” I mean it. You can make mouthwatering quiche with a wide variety of ingredients ranging from the obvious choices like bacon, sausage, and cheese to the more creative like pancetta, sweet potato, salmon, and avocado.
No matter what ingredients you have to use up in your fridge, chances are you can toss them into a healthy quiche – with or without crust.
Enjoy!
For a brunch dish that’s simple yet impressive, this ham quiche will become your go-to.
It starts by mixing hash browns with a little butter and using that to line a pie dish. It’s par-baked before getting filled with a mixture of eggs, milk, cheese, and ham. Bake for a half hour, and then dig right in.

Get the RecipeThere’s just something about the way asparagus and eggs taste together. And although it’s indescribable, there’s no doubt the combo can convert even stubborn veggie avoiders. The asparagus ends up with a buttery texture. Any bitter earthy flavors will fade away as the quiche cooks, bringing out its slight sweetness.

Get the RecipeAlthough it would be good with criminis alone, this mushroom quiche is even better with salty pancetta.
It comes from pork belly, but while it’s cured like bacon, it’s not smoked. It also tends to be thicker so you get big meaty pieces to sink your teeth into. That means there can be less of it without less flavor, keeping this crustless quiche not only low in carbs but in total fat too.

The dough will still need to be rolled out a bit, but then it’s pressed into the bottom of the slow cooker. So there’s no way to get it all smoothed out, which means you can rest easy while it cooks.

Get the RecipeWhat if I told you that just about everything magazines and trainers “teach” you about dieting is wrong?
What if you could build muscle and lose fat eating “naughty” foods every week?
What if you didn’t have to suffer through low-carb dieting to get lean? In fact, what if you could eat all the carbs you wanted?
And what if you didn’t have to gorge yourself just to gain muscle and didn’t have to put on pounds and pounds of ugly fat, either?
In short, what if I told you that proper dieting--whether you want to maximize fat loss or muscle growth--is much simpler and more enjoyable than you’ve been led to believe?
Imagine eating delicious, filling meals every day...never feeling starved or stuffed...having great energy levels and workouts...and watching your body respond exactly as you desire, dropping fat or adding muscle each and every week.
And imagine finally understanding how proper dieting really works, never again falling for the BS, tricks, and gimmicks pushed by “gurus” and other shysters.
Well, I have good news.
All these “fantasies” can be a reality...if you know how to do a handful of “little” things correctly.
You see, when you know how to diet properly--and this doesn’t mean learning to eat boiled chicken and raw broccoli six times per day--getting lean and muscular becomes simple, convenient, and dare I say...enjoyable.
And this book will show you the way.
