Breakfast Burritos - Day 10

This morning Nick and I made some awesome vegetarian breakfast burritos. They went something like this:

Ingredients:

• 4 eggs
• 1/4 sweet onion, diced
• handful baby portobellos, diced
• half a red pepper, diced
• 1 cup-ish of frozen shredded potatoes
• garlic powder/salt/pepper/sriracha
• butter
• light olive oil
• shredded "taco" cheese
• burrito size flour tortillas
• 
  

We cooked the scrambled eggs first, in butter, and set them aside.

Then, heat some olive oil and spread the potato in a thin layer, sprinkle with spices, let it fry for a few minutes to get crispy. Flip them over and stir in the veggies.

Stir-fry it all together until the onion gets caramelized and everything is starting to get a little crispy. Stir in the sriracha.

Add the scrambled eggs to the pan and stir them in. Turn off the heat and sprinkle with cheese. Roll up into tortillas. Nom!

Gruyere Popovers

 I happened to pick up gruyere cheese recently simply because it's something I don't see often and had never tried it. It's a really nutty/bitter hard cheese and wasn't sure what to do with it. Then I came across this recipe over at Martha Stewart's website. I had recently acquired a popover tin and hadn't used it yet so I went for it and made these this morning. So good! And only 4 ingredients: flour, milk, eggs, cheese (well, and a pinch of salt).

I halved the recipe and only made 6 instead of 12. Served them cut in half with butter and jam.

Spinach Gouda Grilled Cheese

OK so grilled cheese does not need a recipe. I'm only posting this because it was a delicious idea that I want to remember later.

I used this Arnold Butter Split Top high fructose corn syrup-free bread
1 slice of Gouda cheese
1 small handful of fresh baby spinach
Smart Balance olive oil based "buttery spread"

I think you know what to do from here ;)

p.s. I've tried it with more cheese because I love cheese and more should be better, right? But surprisingly I find that it's too much. Restrain yourself, one slice is perfect!
