1. Easy Egg Salad
You'll Need:
- 3 hard-boiled eggs
- 3 tbsp mayonnaise
- 2 slices cooked bacon, diced
- salt & pepper to taste
- chives
Here's How:
1.1 Peel the boiled eggs and add them to a freezer bag along with the mayonnaise, bacon, salt, and pepper. Use your hands to press down on the bag and knead the ingredients until they are well combined.
1.2 Squeeze the egg salad to one corner of the freezer bag and cut off the corner.

2. Cheesy Egg White Omelet
You'll Need (for 2):
- 6 eggs, separated
- 1 tbsp parsley
- salt & pepper to taste
- 4 cheese strips
Here's How:
2.1 Separate the eggs, add the parsley to the egg whites, and season the egg yolks with salt and pepper.
2.2 Heat a square pan over medium heat and lightly grease it. Pour the egg yolks into the pan, wait for them to set, and put 2 cheese strips on one end.
2.3 Wrap the cheese in the omelet, leaving one edge open. Slide the omelet roll to the edge of the pan and pour the egg whites over the end of the roll, making sure there's enough egg white on the edge of the omelet so that they overlap.

3.3 Place the cheese slices on top.

3.5 Cook the rice frittata for 45 minutes in a preheated oven set to 275°F. Garnish with parsley before serving.

- 9 slices bacon
- 1 cup cooked & seasoned sushi rice
- sushi mat
Here's How:

4.2 Roll up the omelet, slide it to one side of the pan, and pour in more of the egg mixture, making sure the edge of the omelet overlaps with the liquid mixture to make them stick together. If there is any egg mixture left, repeat this process until it's gone.
