She Says: Easy Eggs on a Monday Night

by Heather Monday, October 19, 2009

I am missing my solo short of the Chocolate Peppy-mint Refresh Glo Bar. So sad. I was hesitant to try this because I do not, I repeat do not, like chocolate and peppermint, but alas, I was hungry and there was chocolate involved, so I went for it.

Much to my delight, I could not detect much peppermint at all! What a lucky girl I am. :D

For dinner I made something quick and simple from one of my favorite cookbooks, Apples for Jam. In Real Meal Challenge style, I cooked up a Zucchini Omelette. Admittedly, Mark is a prettier omelette maker than me, but I did my best. And what this lacks in imagery, it makes up for in taste – simple, yet delicious.

I would also like to add that this meal is super cheap too! Two organic eggs, 1/2 of a zucchini, garlic, basil and a sprinkle of Parmesan Cheese. Eating well does not have to be expensive!

I am trying to fight off a cold, so I am going to try my hardest to get to bed early and load up on vitamin C! Have a great night.

    Yum! I love zucchini omelettes!

  2. There are many days I’m glad I’m not on Iron Chef getting points for presentation. Some of my favorite meals would earn a big zero in that category.

    I would never have thought to but zucchini in eggs. Such a new concept to me. :-)

    I find a good nights sleep is the most overlooked cure for cold prevention. Sleep tight!

  4. Hydration and sleep are the best cold preventions for me!
    I hope you feel better!

    Thank you for the linkage lovely lady! I’ve heard that hummus sandwiches and no-bake cookies ward off any and all cold viruses.

    Hi. I am for real starting my second masters on Oct. 29. I will be a reading specialist in 2 years. I need something to keep my mind occupied about now.

    Also, I hope you feel better.

    Sometimes you just need a good omelet. And sometimes you only have the time to throw an omelet together. Either way omelets are a great dinner option.

    i love eggs for dinner, even more than for breakfast. this is an awesome easy eggs-for-dinner recipe: http://smittenkitchen.com/2008/09/eggs-in-tomato-sauce-contest-winners/

    serve it with bread, or over pasta, or over polenta and some veggies. it’s a perfect meal.

    hope you feel better soon!

  14. I don’t think I’ve ever put zucchini in an omlet – looks good. I always love breakfast for dinner.
    Hope you feel better soon.
    (Thanks for the link to the “new” blog.

  15. Breakfast for dinner.. woohooo the best!

    I am jealous you get to try all the Glo bars! They sound fabulous!

  18. 20 katherine says:

    Looks like a great dinner – I love zucchini omelets! One step away from a zucchini puff quiche, which might be one of the tastiest foods EVER :)

  19. I remember Jenna of EatLiveRun speaking highly of the Apples for Jam cookbook as well. I’m going to have to check it out!

  20. i have always wanted to try something from the GLO bakery, but alas, i cannot afford the shipping !

    it all looks super yummy though! you must be the first person i have met that doesnt like chocolate peppermint!

  21. 23 RunToTheFinish says:

    eggs are such a great meal and make an easy combo with veggies! good reminder I think that may be my dinner!!

  22. yum, i love omelettes for dinner. so quick and easy and always delish! i’ve never had one with zucchini but it sounds like a great addition!

  23. 25 Ashley says:

    i just bought that cookbook and its in the mail today!!! cant wait to try some recipes out!!!

  24. 26 Quix says:

    Omlettes look so yummy! I wish I liked eggs, I just… can’t stomach them. At all. All eggs smell and taste rotten to me. I am pretty sure I could do egg whites but I just haven’t tried yet.

    You’re crazy! :) Chocolate and peppermint is pretty much my favoritest combo ever – a distant second being chocolate and peanut butter.

    Feel better!

  25. 27 Jenny says:

    I had easy eggs last night too!! Zucchini sounds like a nice addition :)

  26. LOVE how quick and cheap eggs are! My husband thought he was allergic for years and slowly discovered he wasn’t so now they can be dinner, yay!

  27. 29 Elina says:

    That omelet actually sounds really great. Simple is good sometimes :)

  28. 30 Jenny says:

    I am such a failure when it comes to eggs.. not once have I ever successfully made a pretty omelet. Something to work on!
