Spinach Mushroom omelette

Breakfast is one of my favorite meals of the day..I also LOVE it that my kids LOVE breakfast too ;) 

Our breakfast usually consist of eggs, bacon or sausage... And LOADS of CARBS.. Croissant, bagel or BUTTER BISCUITS 

SINCE I BEEN trying to eat healthier.. We are cutting back on the carbs and trying to incorporate more veggies and fruits. 

This morning we did great.. We had TURKEY  BACON and a spinach/mushroom omelette 

Ingredients: 

3 eggs.. Beaten really well 

1/2 C spinach

1/4 C sliced mushroom 

Onion 

** beat eggs and add your seasoning.. All I added was a dash of Tony and cracked black pepper 

I cooked my onion and mushroom first with a little olive oil.. once it was cooked I pour in my beaten eggs and then turn heat down to medium low.. I laid my spinach on top then I placed a lid over my omelette for about 1 minute 

Flip the omelette in half and cover for another minute 

Plate and serve with turkey bacon 

ENJOY!! 

Mini ham muffin cup

12 slice of thinly sliced ham
12 eggs
Salt
Pepper
Cooking spray (Pam)
** cheese ( depending on what kind of eggs you make...if u make a small omelette)
**green onion or bell pepper (optional)

Preheat oven to 350

Direction:
1.Spray your muffin pan with some cooking spray
2. Line each muffin cup with a piece of ham.. Work it in until u get a little cup shape
3.Scramble your eggs .. Sprinkle some salt and pepper (if u like u can add some sliced green onion...bell pepper etc)
4. Pour the egg mixture into the prepare ham cup about 3/4 ways up because it will fluff up
5. Sprinkle each with cheese (I used Mexican blend)
**** if u want the sunny side up then crack 1 egg into each muffin cup .. Then sprinkle with a little salt n pepper
Bake for 15-20 minutes... Depending on your oven and if you like your eggs still runny
Once it's done take a big tablespoon and scoop it out .. I found this method to be the easiest without breaking the muffin cup

Serve it up with some toast or grits

ENJOY!!

Egg and cheese quesadilla

4 eggs beaten
1 T oil or butter
1/2 C mix cheese ( I used Mexican because that was what I had)
1/4 t Tony Chachere's ( or salt)
Pepper
2 10in flour tortilla

*** a plate the same size as your frying pan***
(Beat eggs and mix in your Tony and cracked pepper)

Oil your non stick 10in frying pan.. Try to use a frying pan the same size or a little bigger than your tortilla. Pour in your beaten egg and swirl egg mixture around to cover your frying pan. Turn heat to medium low.
Once the egg is cook.. Pour in half your cheese mix and put 1 tortilla on top of the egg mixture and take your plate put on top of the pan and flip the egg/tortilla over onto the plate ( be careful because the pan is hot) Next slide the tortilla/egg back into the frying pan (tortilla side down... so it can cook..about 1-2 minutes) Next pour in the rest of your cheese mixture and put the other tortilla on top and once again take the plate and put on top of the tortilla and flip the pan over... Slide the other side of the tortilla onto the frying pan... So the other side can get lightly brown.
Be careful because it cook really fast and you don't want to burn your tortilla.
Take pan off heat and slide quesadilla onto your plate and cut into wedges. Serve with a side of bacon or sausage

We like ours with bacon and avocado and tomato slices
Enjoy!!

Pandan Waffle

Ingredients:

1 egg beaten

¾ cup coconut milk

1 tablespoon butter

½ teaspoon pandan extract

¼ cup rice flour

½ cup all purpose flour

4 tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

Pinch of salt

Oil/spray for greasing waffle iron

Directions:

Preheat waffle iron – medium (on my waffle machine its at level 3).

In a small bowl, beat egg with a whisk. Coconut milk, shake can well before opening, then stir well before measuring. Add coconut milk, butter and pandan to the bowl. Mix well.

In a larger, separate bowl, mix the flours, sugar, baking powder sugar and salt. Stir to combine. Incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, folding until incorporated and smooth; do not over-mix.

When the waffle iron is hot, lightly oil the top/bottom waffle grids. Spoon batter into the center of each quadrant of the waffle iron. Close the lid and cook until slightly golden and crisp. 

(Note:  if you plan to reheat waffles later, slightly undercook initially, and reheat in the waffle iron or toaster.)

 ENJOY!!

Waffles

Lately we have been on a waffle kick ;)
We eat waffles @ least 3-4 times a week. My kids love it with strawberries, mix berries, bananas or with mini chocolate chips. My son likes it with powder sugar whereas my daughter likes it with butter or maple syrup. I usually make a fresh batch every morning. But waffle freeze very well also. I find when I under cook it a little and individually layer each waffle between a piece of parchment paper then inside a ziploc bag works BEST for me. Then on the morning of... I just stick it in a toast and it taste just as yummy as freshly made.

Breakfast.. YUMMO oatmeal
