Taste Explosion

I make an egg bake at least once a month and each time I've made it different. With my recent health trend to lose weight, I have an assortment of fresh veggies in the fridge. My egg bake this morning consisted of fresh spinach, bella mushrooms, onions, and cherry tomatoes, along with shredded cheese. Other than the cheese, I put all ingredients with 4 eggs into the Ninja and into the 8X8 pan and into the oven for 20 minutes. I also added my favorite spice - Mrs. Dash garlic and herb. Yes, my taste buds were in heaven. The only thing I didn't put into it that I usually do is shredded potatoes. Now I just need to figure out the calorie count on all that. I do have a plan for a large salad later today and a fruit salad as well. For right now, the notifications are done and I need to get to my daughter's to do laundry. I'll be back later to check in with you all. What are your plans for today? Thanks for reading.

That sounds delicious, I had a bowl of cereal with fresh blueberries and a bowl of cantaloupe. We have exercise this afternoon and need some strength.

I haven't had cantaloupe in a while. I should get that the next time I'm buying fruit. I have one container of blueberries that will be part of my fruit salad.

@BelleStarr I've finished off the blueberries, I still have a couple peaches, and grapefruit yet. I do need to go to the store soon though. I'm almost out of the apple cider vinegar drink.

Are you happy with your results? Do you feel deprived?

Your egg bake sounds good. I like to add things to eggs. Love a good omelet.

@just4him ......It's all in the technique. I couldn't either for a long time. You put the ingredients on the one side and it is easier to flip.

Omelets are delicious, unfortunately mine don't look like omelets because I can't properly fold it over all the ingredients I put in them.

@celticeagle That's the way I do it, but it doesn't always work out, only when I have one or two ingredients.

I love baked eggs, have you tried feta cheese with asparagus in your eggs? That's one of my favorites. Today is my day off, I'm relaxing and catching up on the site here.

@just4him Oh thank you, I am having a very relaxing day off today. I'm planning on making a nice supper, we just bought a new grill, so I'll try my hand at that in a few hours.

I thought about feta cheese for my salad, but I don't have any. I hadn't thought of it for the egg bake. Great suggestion. Thanks. Have a wonderful relaxing day off.

@Juliaacv That sounds great. I'm going to get busy in a few minutes and get my salad made before my stomach tells me I'm hungry. That'll be a switch

Sounds yummy! I usually use 4 eggs per person when I make that for dinner. I'm sure it gave you a good start to your day!

Wouldn't you know I'd make spaghetti only to read this and change my mind. Maybe I'll have eggs first then a little skettie.

@DianneN I don't know how I missed your comment on this post two years ago. From the date, it was one month before I started my diet plan as I was still eating cheese. It was delicious, and I've made many different varieties since. It's been a couple of weeks since I had an egg bake. Sounds like it's time for one.

@rebelann That sounds like a good plan too. I haven't had spaghetti in a while. I need to get a spaghetti squash and make it one of these days.

The egg bake sounds delicious. I'm dieting but I refuse to count calories. I'm just watching what I'm eating and exercising more. It's working so far. I'm down nine pounds.

That's totally awesome! Counting calories keeps me accountable and I don't go off the deep end.

@BettyB I'm looking at short term of 10 pounds. I stepped on the scale this morning and I'm down another 2 for 8 total.

@just4him I'm glad that's working for you. My long term goal is daunting so I'm setting five pound goals. It's easier to stay focused that way. If I look at the big picture I'll just give up.

Let's see: I have done some yard work, and I have laundry going. I have had a scramble very similar to your egg bake. I am very sweaty and I plan to have my second cup of coffee and then lots of cold flavored water and a shower. I need to make some phone calls and in general push furniture around inside and out.

Don't get overheated with all you're doing. That makes me sweaty just reading it.

My roomie makes a turkey meatloaf with cream cheese and jalapenos. I think I am going to try that. It sounds awesome and probably tastes like a jalapeno popper.

That sound so good. I could eat that now. When you put in the shredded potatoes, do you shred them yourself or do you by them already shredded?
