Veggie Scrambles
Disclaimer: This was originally a Frittata recipe. However, I am not good at making frittata's on the stove (I prefer baking them), so this ended up being a veggie scramble. Here is the original recipe:
Calico Pepper Frittata
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 medium red bell pepper, chopped
1 spicy pepper, seeded and chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
(my addition) 1 medium tomato, seeded & chopped
(my addition) 3 okras, sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 Tbsp olive oil
5 eggs
1 1/4 cup egg substitute
1 Tbsp grated Romano cheese (I substituted monterrey jack)
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
In a large nonstick skillet, saute veggies and garlic in oil until crisp-tender. In large bowl, whisk eggs & egg substitute. Pour into the skillet. Sprinkle with cheese, salt & pepper.
As the eggs set, lift edges, letting uncooked portion flow underneath (or in my case, just scramble the whole thing as it cooks). Cook until eggs are completely set, about 8-10 minutes. Cut into wedges (or serve as you would scrambled eggs).
This is a picture of another veggie scramble I made. I simply stirred some eggs together with some of our garden vegetables and cooked it like I would scrambled eggs. I served it with bacon and some leftover Italian bread I had from the Panzanella recipe.
The frittata recipe is from Birds & Bloom Grow It Cook It (A to Z veggie guide plus 350+ tips for your BEST garden ever!!). You have probably noticed by now that I love this magazine. Every recipe I have made from it has been delicious (even when I have to adjust for my lack in cooking skills).
