My neighbor called me over for breakfast yesterday and what a surprize I had when I saw what she made for me. She is a nurse and also watching her weight. what a delicious dish this is. She told me that it has only 5 grams of fat with 237 calories.You wouldn't know it by the taste. I took her recipe home with me and made it for my sweetheart. He loved it. Sure hope all these recipes helpe me in loosing my weight. Will just have to wait and see. I must keep in mind, SMALL PORTIONS!! Omit the chips and it is only 122 calories per serving.
