Ultimate Recipe Swap: Eggs

|


I love EGGS! Seriously, I could eat them for every meal... there are days that I do! We usually get about 3 dozen fresh EGGS at a time, and it will normally last us a week and a half to two weeks! Normally I just scramble them for burritos, or make yummy omelets with them. But here are a couple of my favorite EGG recipes!  Head over to Life As Mom to read more!

Mini Bacon and Cheese Quiches

prep: 15 min / cook: 20 min / total: 35 min

1 spray(s) cooking spray
36 item(s) wonton wrapper(s), 3 ½-inches square each
1 small onion(s), finely chopped
1 cup(s) fat-free EGG substitute**
1 ½ cup(s) fat-free evaporated milk
½ cup(s) low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
4 slice(s) cooked crisp turkey bacon, crumbled

* Preheat oven to 350ºF. Coat 36 miniature muffin cups with cooking spray.

* Gently press 1 wonton wrapper into each muffin cup allowing ends to extend above cups. Spray edges of wrappers with cooking spray; set aside.

* Meanwhile, in a small skillet, stir-fry onion over medium-high heat until tender, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

* In a large mixing bowl, whisk together EGG substitute, milk and cheese. Stir in bacon and onion until well combined. Fill each wonton wrapper with about 1 tablespoon of filling mixture.

* Bake until quiche mixture is set and edges of wrappers are lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

Broccoli and Cheese Mini Egg Omelets

total: 25 min

4 cups broccoli florets
4 whole EGGS
1 cup EGG whites
¼ cup reduced fat cheddar
¼ cup good grated cheese like pecorino romano
1 tbs olive oil
salt and fresh pepper
cooking spray


Preheat oven to 350°. Steam broccoli with a little water for about 6-7 minutes.
When broccoli is cooked, mash into smaller pieces and add olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix well.

Spray cupcake tin with cooking spray and spoon broccoli mixture evenly into 9 tins.

In a medium bowl, beat EGG whites, EGGS, grated cheese, salt and pepper. Pour into the greased tins over broccoli until a little more than ¾ full. Top with grated cheddar and bake in the oven until cooked, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately. Wrap any leftovers in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator to enjoy during the week.

I am so glad I read your about me page. I love seeing families strive to eat healthy, and I am so glad you try to eat organic. I know it can be hard, especially in a town where there might not be a lot of options, but you are making a difference each time you do buy organic.
Have a healthy day!

Thanks for stopping by everyone!

@Melissa- they are awesome!

@Tasha- It definitely can be hard sometimes around here. We have a few organic farmers that set up at the farmers market. This year I've decided to grow a lot of my own veggies as well!

@Cashier- Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy it. I've done weight watchers on and off for years, so a lot of the recipe I post have came from that!
