Leela's Vegan and Vegetarian Recipes & Cooking Hints

This is Leela's Vegan and Vegetarian Recipes and Cooking Hints. My cooking style is improvisational. I don't measure much, but go on instinct. I take inspiration and improvise to make up recipes. I'll add various menus, recipes and cooking hints. As I refine items, I'll modify recipes. I'll also point out other delicious recipes I've tried.

Mexican Broccoli & Mushroom Frittata

Ingredients:

  • Chopped Broccoli
  • Chopped Mushrooms
  • 1 clove garlic
  • Salsa (Paul Newman's HOT salsa)
  • Eggs and Egg Beaters
  • Milk
  • salt
  • pepper
  • oil to saute
  • Mexican blend cheese

Hints:

Select a pan which you can cook the vegetables and eggs and then put into the oven to bake.
The amount of vegetables and eggs depends on how big you want to make this. For two people, you could use 1 cup broccoli, 1/2 cup mushrooms, 2 Tbsp salsa, 1 Egg and 1/2 cup egg beaters and 1/4 cup milk, for example

Recipe:

  1. Whip up eggs, egg beaters and milk
  2. Pre-heat oven to 350
  3. In Ovensafe pan, heat oil, Saute Broccoli, mushrooms and garlic until tender
  4. Add Salsa to taste (see above for measurement hints), stir
  5. Add egg mixture
  6. Pull egg mixture away from bottom of pan to side with spatula to allow eggs on top to reach the bottom of pan and do this until most of the liquid eggs are thick (but not completely firm)
  7. Take pan and place into center of oven for 10-15 minutes until the eggs are almost firm.
  8. Add cheese and allow to bake for 5 more minutes until cheese melts

Serve hot or cold with a salad (Spinach salad is nice with this)

Notes:

High protein, low-carb. Use lowfat cheese and will be really low fat!
