The Scramble

Hello World! Long time no blog!

So my life has been insanely, grossly busy. I’ve been cast as Hermia in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. And between classes, work, homework, and rehearsal I have essentially no time to eat. So these next few posts will be completely dedicated to my new favorite “fast” foods.

First up, The Scramble.
I found out this summer I’m hypo-glycemic. Which doesn’t really mean much or change much about my diet. But it does mean that I have to eat more protein! So I’ve been eating a lot of eggs in order to maintain my energy level. I also love this dish because I get a full serving of vegetables in.

Ingredients:
-1 or 2 eggs (and use the full egg. Egg whites are less fatty, but they also contain less protein)
- any vegetables you like: spinach, tomatoes, onions, garlic, artichokes (I’ve been obsessed with artichokes since I started eating them this summer), etc. I also add tofu sometimes, for fun!
- Cheese!

1) I just sauté the veggies together. I do the onions first as they take longer, then tomatoes, spinach, artichokes, etc. Garlic is always last because if it burns, your meal is dead.
2) I usually just make scrambled eggs like normal, then add the veggies on top. And finally, cheese!!!

Enjoy!
