Super Easy Indian Style Omelet

This is a great, quick snack to have- definitely one of my favorites.. I usually make this delicious omelet when I don’t feel like eating anything else- or I am in the mood for something very spicy. I add lots of serrano chillies and cayenne pepper!

Healthy Vegetable Scramble

Healthy Scramble I like starting my day with a healthy breakfast.

I bought a carton of egg whites and decided to pair some up with a regular egg.

I sauteed up some veggies as well. My fridge is filled with peppers, mushrooms, spinach, zucchini, and sprouts. I decided to use some mushrooms, peppers and spinach. I cooked them with a tiny bit of oil. I used the non-stick pan so it doesn’t take too much fat to cook the vegetables. I mixed up the egg whites and egg with salt and added it to the non-stick pan.

It is a delicious breakfast with a very large cup of coffee- perfect way to start the day…

  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup egg whites
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 to 2 cups baby spinach
  • ½ cup yellow or red pepper, sliced
  • 3 to 4 cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • ¼ cup low fat, shredded cheese
  • 1 teaspoon extra light olive oil

Beat the egg and egg white in a small bowl. Add the salt and cheese and mix well. In the meantime, heat a non-stick frying pan and add the oil. Add the spinach, peppers and mushrooms. Saute on medium heat till the mushrooms have cooked down- about 5 minutes. Lower the heat and add the egg mixture. Mix well and turn the heat off as soon as the mixture begins to set. Serve immediately.

Leftover Meatball Lasagna

Leftover Meatball Lasagna Why not finish off the week with another pasta dish? Like yesterdays post, this one made with leftovers as well- I love making a completely different dish the next day. This one is quite simple as well since most of the work was already done. All I made was the béchamel sauce and layered the lasagna noodles with crumbled meatballs. It took almost no time and I had a delicious dish.

Next time you have leftover meatballs, make this delicious lasagna…
