Low Carb Breakfast

So, this whole low-carb diet thing is awesome. 

And by awesome I mean annoying.

And by annoying I mean super difficult to eat food.

Because I love pasta
and bread
and fruit
and chocolate
and everything else that is good and yummy in this world.

BUT--
I did find a way to make a few yummy things.

Ultimate Breakfast Toast
Toast a slice of Bread (Sara Lee's 45 calorie wheat bread has 9 carbs for 2 slices!  way good!)
put sliced hard-boiled egg on top
put sliced tomato on top of that
and sliced avocado on top of that
and a slice of provolone cheese on top of that

Put it in the broiler until the cheese gets bubbly brown-like and then remove.
It is super yummy. 
You could also put bacon, ham, sausage, or something of the like on it. 
Either way, it is like 15 carbs for the whole thing when you do 2 slices of the sara lee bread even if you add meat.  I am allowed 30 at breakfast, so this is way good.  Cuz then I can eat some 1/2 cup raspberries and a glass of milk and I'm at 30 and full.
And it's not a salad!
It is apparently called a california melt, but I add egg to mine.  :)
