Veggie Omelet

 

Eggs are a favorite part of any breakfast or brunch.  Enjoy this omelet for breakfast served with whole-grain toast and a glass of orange juice on the side.  This omelet contains garlic and tomatoes as superfoods, along with other healthful vegetables.

 

Prep time: About 15 minutes

 

Cooking time: About 7 to 8 minutes

 

Yield: 4 servings

  • 3 eggs (or equivalent amount of egg substitute such as Egg Beaters)
  • ¼ cup nonfat milk
  • Canola oil or nonstick cooking spray
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • ¼ cup mushrooms
  • ¼ cup chopped red or green pepper
  • ¼ chopped tomato without seeds
  • ¼ cup grated cheddar cheese
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  1. Whisk eggs and milk in mixing bowl.
  2. Spray nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray, or coat lightly with canola oil. Heat skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add onions, garlic, mushrooms, peppers and tomatoes to the skillet and cook until onions are translucent, stirring continuously.
  4. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl. Wipe the skillet and re-apply nonstick spray or oil.
  5. Add eggs to the skillet. As the eggs cook, loosen the edges and let the raw egg slide underneath.  Cook for about 1 minute.
  6. When eggs appear to be nearly cooked, add onions, garlic, mushrooms, peppers, tomatoes, cheese, salt, and black pepper to one half of the omelet.
  7. Fold the other side of the omelet over the filling. Turn off heat, and cover.  Serve after the cheese has melted, about one minute.

Spinach Quiche with Pecans

Cinnamon Blueberry Whole-Grain Waffles

 

These waffles include oats and blueberries to make them into superfood waffles.  We also use whole-wheat flour for a hearty flavor and more fiber.

Cooking time: About 5 minutes for each waffle

 

Yield: 8 servings

  • 1 ¼ cup whole-wheat flour
  • ½ cup quick cooking oats
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 ½ cups reduced-fat milk
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries, or frozen blueberries, thawed and drained
  1. Heat waffle iron following manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour, oats, baking powder, salt and cinnamon.
  3. In a separate bowl, stir together milk, canola oil, and egg.
  4. Combine wet and dry ingredients and stir until large lumps disappear, but don’t over mix.
  5. Fold in blueberries.
  6. Make waffles according to your waffle iron’s instructions. Serve with light syrup or nonfat whipped topping and more blueberries.

Whole-Wheat Oat Pancakes

 

Homemade pancakes are a favorite breakfast/brunch food, but typical pancakes are low in fiber and high in sugar.  These pancakes are better for you because they’re made with whole grains and nonfat milk and have the additional goodness of applesauce.

 

Prep time: About 10 minutes

 

Cooking time: About 4 minutes for each pancake

 

Yield: 4 servings

  • 1 egg
  • ½ cup oat flour
  • ½ cup whole wheat flour
  • ½ cup nonfat milk
  • ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • Canola oil or nonstick cooking spray
  1. Whisk the egg in mixing bowl until beaten.
  2. Add flours, milk, applesauce, oil, and baking powder; mix well.
  3. Heat skillet over medium heat and coat with oil or nonstick cooking spray.
  4. Pour ¼ cup of batter into skillet, cook until batter bubbles, about two minutes, turn and cook for two more minutes.
  5. Repeat for the rest of the batter.
  6. Serve with light syrup or fruit spread.
