Breakfast Burritos - Lowfat - 3 Points Preparation

saute onion and pepper in non-stick pan which has been sprayed with desired flavor of non-stick spray. Add cut up Healthy Choice sausage and stir into vegetable mixture. (No need to cook sausage; its fully pre-cooked.) Transfer to a bowl or bag and refrigerate. Lightly beat eggs and egg substitute with the water. Melt butter or margarine in the skillet that was used to saute the onions and peppers (or use non-stick spray). When melted, stir in egg mixture. Cook eggs until almost done, keeping in fairly large curds. Salt and pepper to taste. Combine eggs and cooled sausage mixture. Warm tortillas in the microwave. Place about 1/4 cup of the egg mixture in the center of a tortilla. Top with 1 scant tablespoon of shredded cheddar cheese. Roll tortilla and wrap in waxed paper, tape to seal (label if making more than one kind). Place waxed paper wrapped tortillas in a zip-lock freezer bag in the freezer. To heat from freezer: Cook a single wrapped burrito in the microwave for about 2 minutes on 50% power (or defrost) (would take longer if you were doing multiples). Then microwave for about 1/2 minute more on full power or until hot. Just peel the paper down as you eat so that all the filling stays in. per MasterCook with these lower fat substitutions: 167.8cals,5 fat (25.9% CFF), 97mg chol,2.2g fiber = 3 Weight Watcher Points NOTES : I got the original recipe for these from Libby. Ive been experimenting with lowering the fat and calorie content without "ruining" the flavor and texture. This is my final "successful" experiment! I chose to use a small amount or real butter and real eggs, but these could easily by made with all egg substitute and cooking spray. This would change the nutritional analysis to: 138cals,1.8g fat (11.5%CFF), 2.2g fiber =2 WW points each JaneStarr Nutr.
