Foodie Friday: Egg White Pizza




Hosted by Gollum, foodie friday is a fun way to experience food from a different perspective.  I love sharing my recipes and reading what others have posted as well.  Stop by Designs by Gollum to see more.

My foodie:


Egg white pizza 

Is it a pizza if it doesn't have dough? Is it a frittatta if it doesn't have cream? You decide.

Basically, this is  breakfast or lunch I make on days I feel I need to increase my protein and whenever I need a little change with my veggies.  I love this dish, any time of day.  I hope you will too.

Ingredients:

Cooking Spray or a tsp of olive oil
1/2 cup egg white
4-5 stalks of asparagus
1/2 plum tomato
1/2 cup uncooked baby spinach leaves
2 TBSP of cheese - any kind you like
Salt and Pepper to taste

  1. Coat the bottom of a pan with cooking spray or olive oil and heat on Medium to High.
  2. Gently pour in egg white, sprink with salt and pepper and let it cook for about a minute. 
  3. Cup up asparagus and add to the egg white, let cook another minute.
  4. The eggs should be looking almost done at this point if not give it a little more time.
  5. Add the plum tomato, then baby spinach leaves, and sprinkle the cheese on top.
  6. Cover and let it cook until the cheese melts and the spinach leaves are a little wilted.

My coffee and my breakfast were done about the same time--it's a quick and easy meal to make.

Slide off the pan and onto a plate, eat and enjoy!! It's filling, healthy, and delicious!

Foodie Friday


Foodie Friday hosted by Gollum is so much fun.  I said before, I love all the neat recipe ideas we get to share, so read mine and then go over to Designs by Gollum to see all the other awesome recipes and hey, maybe, just maybe, you'll add your own. 

Here goes my recipe for this week - sorry I don't have a photo this time:

Veggi-Packed-Pita

Ingredients:

1/2 pita pocket (whole wheat)
1/4 cup cooked, cut up chicken breast
1 cup veggies (zucchini, squash, portabella mushroom)
1 cup uncooked baby spinach
2 table spoons olive oil
1 slice pepperjack cheese

cook the veggies in olive oil, just before they are done, add the chicken and spinach, cover and let cook at low heat for a few minutes or until chicken is heated through.

Place the cheese in the pita pocket, add the veggie mix, enjoy!

I felt so full after this one I thought I cheated--it is absolutely delicious, filled with nutrients, protein, vitamins, fiber--it's just awesome!


**Note:  you can add or replace the cheese and the veggies for something you would rather have.  I had this yesterday and after it was all done I added a couple of slices of Avocado and used Asiago cheese - still delicious.

Enjoy!
