Breakfast Tostadas


Yum, breakfast tostadas, a variation on a recipe taken from the EatingWell site.
Two white corn tortillas, one slice of diced Canadian bacon, 1/2 cup egg whites, 1/4 cup 4-cheese low-fat Italian mix, 1/4 cup chuncky salsa, 1/4 cup non-fat cottage cheese, 1 turkey sausage patty. Melt the cheese on the tortillas while heating them on a griddle. Cook the egg whites with the diced Canadian bacon. Divide and heap cooked eggs on each tortilla. Divide salsa and cottage cheese to top the tostadas. Serve with 1/2 cup OJ and sausage. 470 calories, 12 g fat, 50 g carbs, 1676 mg sodium, 42 g protein.
Too much salt, from the bacon, sausage, and cottage cheese. I'm gradually phasing those foods out of my diet, replacing them with good low-salt foods such as fresh pork, canned green chilies, and Greek yogurt.
