A better breakfast

The first winter I spent in New York was marked by a daily egg and cheese on a roll from a cart on 70th Street. Not surprisingly, this failed to do wonders for my waistline. Lately, when that egg-and-cheese craving hits me, I take one slice of browned toast, cut it in half, sandwich a piece of American cheese and some cooked egg substitute (Eggbeaters or egg whites work) between the halves, and microwave for half a minute. I supplement with a half cup of oatmeal, no sugar, low-fat milk on top. This satisfies the craving, fills me up, and leaves less guilt--a better way to start the day...
