Scrambled Eggs

But why eat just plain old scrambled eggs? Bor-ing.

I spice mine up by adding vegetable and spices that I like.

I chop up as much onion and garlic as I'm willing to eat.
I saute the onion and garlic in butter or oil that's pre-heated with crushed red peppers.
I add herbs and spices; this morning, as usual, I added cumin and cayenne - don't forget the salt!
As soon as the onions are tender I add my egg.
When the egg is cooked I add chopped mushrooms and parsley.

I made my scrambled eggs into an egg sandwhich by toasting a multigrain english muffin and dumping the egg into it. It was sooooo delicious!

Guess what! You can add cheese, salsa, bell peppers, anything else that sounds good to you. I LOVE cooking!

The english muffins of which I speak I found at Trader Joe's; they're Disraeli and Gladstone multigrain english muffins. They have 160 calories, 5 grams of fiber, and 7 grams of protein.

  1. YUM! I cook up sweet onions, red pepper & zucchini in my eggs. Even better? Top with provolone and stick it under the broiler for a minute or two for a yummy frittata!!! :)
