A Greek styled omelet.

Contains:  Eggs, dairy.  Is:  Quick and easy, simple vegetarian option, nightshade-free.  

The Second Recipe of a personal Greek Month.

Many ingredients. Goat cheese, dill, scallions, olives, lamb. Missing from photo: eggs, olive oil, spinach, ground pepper, oregano.

You can eat this by itself, or have a side of toasted pita and/or Greek salad.  See the previous recipe for the latter.

For vegetarian, simply nix the lamb.  Just as tasty, and I added the lamb in anyway as a last minute decision.  Normally, I wouldn’t do this either.  I had the lamb here – it’s not something I’d run out to buy just for an omelet!

I prefer fresh spinach, which you would just wilt.  However, nothing says you can’t use frozen – simply thaw it and squeeze out as much water as you can prior to cooking.

Starting to layer in omelet innards…

Today’s Menu: Chopped Bison Sirloin and Sauteed Mushrooms w/ Baked Potato and Texas Toast (Light)

For Breakfast this morning I Scrambled a couple of Eggs, toasted 2 slices of Aunt Millie’s Light Whole Grain Bread and I had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. I topped the Scrambled Eggs with a sprinkle of Sargento Off the Block Sharp Cheddar Cheese and some Ortega Smoky Chipotle Taco Sauce. A few snow flurries blowing around this morning. Light Rain and 38 degrees for the day. Not a whole lot going on today. After Breakfast I went Meijer for a few items and stopped by the Bank and ATM. For Dinner tonight its Mom’s favorite, Chopped Bison Sirloin and Sauteed Mushrooms w/ Baked Potato and Texas Toast (Light).

We love these Chopped Bison Steaks from SayersBrook Bison Ranch! I had them in the freezer so I grabbed a package of 2 of…

A few posts ago, I told you about a recipe for Cheesy Hash Brown Potatoes, made by Jane Ann for her department lunch. Well, Jane, who is also in that same department, madethis fabulous Texas sheet cake for the dessert. It was super-good…nice and moist, very

For once I shall do things the other way around, providing an intro to the recipe and ingredients first and writing my little ‘story’, the context, after.

If you want to spruce up an ordinary meatloaf, present it encased in pastry.

Instead of Beef Wellington, you can dub it Meatloaf Wellington.  I chanced upon this recipe on the internet and am providing a link below.  It’s in Italian but no worries – even if you don’t speak the language, everything is so straightforward, you’ll get enough of an understanding to get started right away.

One of the reasons I did want to get started is that the last time I had made a meatloaf it had been a complete disaster, a ‘beautiful catastrophe’ as Zorba the Greek would have remarked (see my previous post harking back to it).  So I’m a bit sensitive that way, you see.  I…
