I do something very similar, just easier as I am the only one at my house that will eat sweet potatoes. I nuke a sweet potato, take out the insides and ma**** with vanilla protein powder, cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice and butter (no eggs)

Just wanted to share. I made this today, loved it. Modified from a recipe I found online. I think it would be good with broccoli too. I will try that next time.

How about the old standby of `Muffin in a Mug`. I spray a large coffee mug with pam, drop in an egg, 1 scoop of soy protein or other protein powder (not whey isolate; it lumps when cooked at a high temperature), a bit of flavoured extract, sugar/sugar substitute, some nuts, chopped fruit or cocoa powder and about 1/8 tsp baking powder. Stir it all up and microwave it about 60 seconds. Dump out and eat. You can add cinnamon, any other spices, even remove the sugar and add cubed cheddar for a savory muffin. They do not keep well; they are eat immediately as they get very dry otherwise....quick to make! You will get about 20-25 g. protein from the protein powder and 9 grams from the egg, so it is very good for you.
Looks...amazing...my other half is a bacon junkie...I may have to treat him. :D
