An easy way to curb your hunger is to eat breakfast every day. Skipping meals may lead to overeating later on due to uncontrolled hunger. Protein and fiber have been shown to keep a person feeling full for longer which may decrease the likelihood of overeating at the next meal. Try creating a breakfast with lean proteins such as fat-free or low-fat dairy products (Greek yogurt is a great choice!) and high fiber foods like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables.

- 1/2 cup sweet onion, cut into 1″ pieces
- 1 /2 cup yellow, red or orange bell pepper, cut into 1″ pieces
- 1/2 cup zucchini, cut into 1″ pieces

- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- Sprinkle of paprika or cayene pepper

Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Prepare your vegetables.
- Spray an OVEN SAFE pan with cooking spray; always use oven mitts when removing pan from oven (I use my cast iron skillet).
- Place all of the veggies (except for the kale) into the pan and roast in the oven for about 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, give the veggies a stir, add the salt and pepper and the kale. Roast for another 10-15 minutes.
- Now, carefully crack your eggs on top of the veggie mixture, spacing them evenly throughout the pan.
- Bake for 5-7 minute or until the eggs are cooked the way you like them.
- This is great served with a quick sweet potato hash or whole grain toast.
