RECIPE: Green Eggs (Vegetarian)

Best Blogger Tips In order to get myself back off sugars, I'm taking some time to load up on vegetarian protein.

I used to make these all the time for my (then) two year-old son.  He wouldn't eat greens but after reading the Dr. Suess book to him, he thought these were great!

(The eggs I buy are from a family friend who cares for his chickens humanely.)


Local farm fresh eggs, spinach, and house seasoning

GREEN EGGS


Ingredients:

*2 eggs (preferably organic, locally raised) or 3 egg whites
*Handful of fresh spinach
*House seasoning to taste


Directions:

1. Blend all ingredients thoroughly in a Vita-Mix Vita Prep 3 or other high speed blender.
2. Use non-stick spray or cooking oil to coat the bottom of a small skillet.  Cook at medium-low heat until done.

Serves: 1

Variations:

1. Top the eggs with cheese or soy cheese
2. Use for the base of a yummy vegetable omelet by topping with your favorite veggies!
3. Try making these using egg substitutes.  Let me know how they turned out and I will add them to the "Variations" on this post!

Tips:
1.  The higher heat eggs are cooked at, the more chewy they become.  For fluffy eggs, cook at medium-low.


Yum!
