You might not think it is possible to lose weight while on a diet which includes prickly pear eggs but it is possible. The key is to not eat prickly pear eggs or other high calorie breakfast every day but in moderation.

This is what I do, I allow myself high calorie food one day per week. I eat a healthy diet 6 days a week, say 1200 to 1600 calories each day, and then 1 day, I eat whatever I want – within moderation of course.

I have been using this method for the last 2 weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise plan or taken any vitamins or diet aids. I have simply been aware of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I feel like one day of the week.

I also believe it is helpful if you have some support when on a weight loss program and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have several tools to enable you to monitor your progress and attain your goals.

Prickly Pear Eggs

1 or 2 fresh nopales
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
4 tablespoons butter or vegetable oil
1/2 cup red chile sauce
8 eggs
Salt and pepper

Trim and clean the cactus pads. Dice each pad, then cover with salted water in a saucepan, and simmer gently until tender ? 5 to 10 minutes. Drain in a sieve and rinse under cold water to rid pads of their sticky, okra-like juice.

In a large skillet, saut? the onion in butter or vegetable oil until soft. Add the nopales and red chili sauce and mix well. Break the eggs gently on top of the mixture, cover tightly, and steam until the egg whites are set ? 5 to 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve directly from the frying pan.

Serves 4.

Variation
Scramble the eggs, stirring them into the mixture in the skillet; continue to stir until the eggs are cooked but still moist. You may also add some chopped cooked bacon, if desired.
