My daughter and I are both anemic and were looking for easy and yummy ways to incorporate more iron into our diet. I'll admit they don't look really appetizing, but these eggs are light and fluffy and are great accompanied by Dr. Seuss' Green Eggs and Ham. My daughter is 2 and can be picky, so I was ecstatic that she loved these eggs and asks for them almost daily. Mustard greens are an amazing source of vitamins and nutrients! Ingredients:
1 tablespoon cream or 1 tablespoon half-and-half |
6 tablespoons water |
1 tablespoon parmesan cheese |
sea salt |
pepper |
1 1/2 cups mustard greens (cleaned and chopped. packaged) |
4 eggs |
1/2 tablespoon butter |
olive oil flavored cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Combine cream, water, Parmesan, salt and pepper in blender (I like ours salty, so we use just over 1/4 t of sea salt and 1/8 t of pepper). Blend until smooth (small pieces of greens are fine). About 15-30 seconds.
2. Add eggs and blend until mixed (about 15 seconds).
3. Gently heat small frying pan. Add butter and olive oil spray to coat. Add egg mixture and cook gently over low-med heat, as you would cook scrambled eggs (more slowly = more fluffy and yummy!).
