Since my mom's passing I haven't written anything new, but I did find this draft just sitting there waiting to be published. Enjoy. I will be posting new adventures shortly.
I found some stuff online where people were making food in muffin tins. I thought it was cute and a great way to have ready made portions. So I gave it a try. Since my hubby isn't really thrilled about taking yogurt to work and eating it every morning with blueberries and nuts... maybe I should shake it up a bit. I decided to make some breakfast omelets with sweet potato waffle fries as the bottom.
I'm not going to say this was a great success, but I'm not going to call it a failure either. Although, it was a learning experience for sure. I probably should tell you that I've been experiencing major bouts of clutziness in the kitchen for a while now, well actually since we moved in here a couple months ago. Yeah, I had you fooled didn't I... thinking I was spinning all kinds of cooking magic in there with ease. In reality I'm afraid I might have started a few salmonella farms in a few select places. If there is a surface in the kitchen/dining room that I haven't spilt, splattered or dropped something on well then I deserve a medal!
This day was one of those days magnified by ten! But I survived with minimal battle wounds. Here is what I came up with:
I preheated my oven to 375 degrees. I came up with this based on another oven omelet recipe I have seen.
I buttered my muffin tins and added some sweet potato waffle fries.
I whisked up some eggs, salt and pepper. I got a bit carried away and beat them to a frothy mess! I continued and added some peppers for my veggie element.
Yep... still nice and foamy, at this point I didn't know what to expect as the result when I pulled them out of the oven. I threw some fresh parsley on top to add another colorful element so they wouldn't be boring... and after over 7 years of marriage, my hubby recently told me he likes to eat it!
Looking good!
Looking not so good. I should have used coconut or olive oil instead of butter or better yet muffin cups!
I served them that night on the side with a big salad, focaccia "bread"sticks and Humus.
