Broccoli & Asparagus Breakfast

This morning I decided to make eggs with vegetables:

Eggs with Broccoli & Asparagus
  • 2 large eggs*
  • 4 large egg whites*
  • garlic powder
  • cayenne
  • 3 broccoli crowns
  • 1 bunch asparagus
  • 1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled
Wash broccoli and asparagus.  Chop broccoli.  Remove woody stems from asparagus (hold either end and bend the stalk.  The woody part will break off).  Cut into 1-inch pieces.  Place both broccoli and asparagus in microwave steamer with 1/2 cup water in the bottom.  Cover and microwave for 6 minutes.

In the meantime, beat eggs, egg whites and spices in a small bowl.  Coat a 12-inch frypan with cooking spray.  Heat over medium heat.  Place cooked vegetables in pan, pour eggs over vegetables and sprinkle with feta.  Allow bottom of eggs to cook, then continue cooking stirring with a silicon spatula until eggs are barely wet.  Allow to set 1 minute before serving.

The item on the side is a potato cheese pub pie we purchased at the Shaker Heights Farmers Market.  They were made by a company called Gray House Pies, located at 22560 Lorain Rd, Fairview Park, OH 44126.  We bought those along with BBQ chicken and Daal pub pies and brownies as well.  For more information, you can follow them on Facebook here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Gray-House-Pies/128120697377?sk=wall.

To finish breakfast, I made smoothies:

Mixed Berry Smoothies
  • 1 1/2 cups Fresh Yogurt*
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup fresh blackberries
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries
Place all ingredients into mug from Bullet Blender.  Attach cross blades and blend 10 seconds.  Shake to mix further and blen another 10 seconds or until smooth.

  1. Sounds delish! And you give excellent, detailed instructions, which takes patience to do. (I know because I'm writing a cookbook of my tried-and-true and/or family recipes for my brother.)
