Another thing people could have learned from "The Office"

I had a similar situation at work today…only since I live in New Mexico, it involved a tortilla.

There was a department breakfast this morning celebrating folks who had worked there 10 yrs or longer. (Ironically I work in a Palliative Home Health Care & Hospice agency). I spoke with the staff who ordered the breakfast food last week, told her I was eating low carb, she assured me that they would have eggs. Turns out that wasn’t “eggactly” the case. Breakfast burritos are big around here, so she was so proud she had ordered a bean burrito for me instead, to go along with the fruit, berry blintzes, & OJ that was served!

Fortunately I had a keto inspiration before I left home, brought with me some “purse bacon”, & a Maria Emmerich chocolate keto waffle with butter. During the breakfast, I was able to de-construct the burrito to extract about 3-4 T of scrambled eggs (minus the beans, hash browns, & tortilla) to create a nice little meal. Even got a couple compliments from other folks…I think they were coveting my bacon :wink:
It pays to be keto-creative! (And if all else fails…just fast)
