eggs | A CoLoRfUl PaLaTe

I have a coworker who’s always thinking up really good ideas for new products. The problem is, they already exist.

So far, she’s wanted to invent a dog collar that has a bow tie on it, and wipes that can be used in place of a shower after a run.

It’s fine though – she’s learning new things about the world every day. I feel a little bit of the same way with these omelet muffins. I know they’ve been a “thing” for awhile. I do. But I just discovered them and I’m not going to lie – it blew my mind a little.

How could breakfast be this easy? These things even trump oatmeal for simplicity.

Mind. Blown.

Apparently it doesn’t take much.

What You Need:

6-8 eggs, cracked into a large bowl
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/4 sliced scallions
1 cup diced fresh tomato
1 cup chopped fresh spinach
1/4 cup chopped jalapenos (optional)
1/2 tbsp black pepper
1 tsp salt

What You Do:

Preheat oven to 350F

Literally just crack the eggs and mix them with all the other stuff, pour into a muffin tin and bake for about 20 minutes or until they begin to brown and crisp on top.

Serve with ketchup or hot sauce or whatever.

Easy!

Whenever I go out to breakfast, I have the same dilemma: do I get pancakes, or eggs?

On the one hand, eggs means home fries, hot sauce, and cheese. All great things.

On the other hand, pancakes are pancakes. Sweet, syrupy fluffiness…it’s hard to decide.

Well I have a solution, and it’ll save you money too since you can make these delightful 3-ingredient pancakes in minutes in your own kitchen, and enjoy them whilst relaxing in your pj’s.

What You Need:

1 1/2 bananas, mashed completely with a fork in a medium mixing bowl
2 eggs
2 tbsp brown sugar
Oil or butter for the pan

What You Do:

Using a fork, mix together the mashed banana, eggs and brown sugar until thoroughly mixed.

In a skillet warmed with melted butter or oil, pour the batter into pancake-like rounds. Cook for about 3 minutes – little bubbles should form on the surface of each cake.

Flip gently and cook another 3 minutes. You’ll want to flip them again to cook each side one more time. They’ll be ready when each side is golden brown.

Enjoy with syrup, peanut butter, nutella, mixed berries or whatever topping you prefer.
