Kim's Kitchen - Comfort Food Made Easy

It’s Sunday morning, everyone is hungry…..what to do…..

Use your left overs of course!

It’s Sunday morning that means I go through my refrigerator to see what I have left over from the week.  In my case, I had a handful of asparagus spears, a sweet potato, onion, red/green pepper and mushrooms.  I always have cheese and eggs so I made a veggies scramble for my family.

Cut your veggies into pieces and saute in a pan with some butter, salt and pepper.  I had some diced ham so I added that once the the veggies were soft.  Otherwise, use what you have, bacon, sausage, smoked bratwurst or no meat if you are in the mood for something vegetarian.  

Mix up 4-6 eggs.  Add salt and pepper and mix again.  Always add your milk or cream after you have added your salt and pepper.  The S&P mix better with the eggs and they don’t clump.  Pour your egg mixture over the veggies, reduce your heat and cover.  Let it cook for about 5 minutes or so until the eggs start to set. 

Starting from the edges, fold the egg mixture inward.  Cover and let cook again for about 5 minutes.  This time, add a handful of your favorite cheese, once again fold eggs in from the edges.  This time like you are making an envelope to hold in the eggs and cheese.  Top with a handful of cheese some sliced tomatoes and avocado if you have it. 

Not only did you use up all your veggies from the week, you made your family a healthy and hearty breakfast to start their day.  Now….it’s time to use that good energy to clean the garage, weed the backyard or if you’re like me, wait for NASCAR to start.
