I found this on the back of a box of Morning Star Farms bacon strips. I added one (7 oz) can chopped green chilies and I used sharp cheddar cheese instead of the regular. I also have used a can of green beans in place of the broccoli, but cut them up. We loved it. I always make this when my mom, who is a vegetarian comes to visit. Although it is a vegetarian bacon substitute, once it's mixed in and baked, it still has that satisfying bacon flavor and it's hard to tell that it really isn't bacon. YUM. Ingredients:
1 (5 1/4 ounce) package frozen vegetarian bacon, strips (i use morning star farms brand and only 1/2 the pkg.) |
1 cup broccoli, in tiny bite size floretts |
3/4 cup sliced white button mushrooms |
5 green onions, finely chopped using tops and a little bit of the green bottoms |
1 cup green bell pepper, chopped |
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine |
4 eggs, lightly beaten (or you can use 1 cup refrigerated egg substitute) |
1/4 cup water |
1/2 teaspoon oregano |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or more to your taste) |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (or more to your taste) |
1/4 teaspoon onion powder (or more to your taste) |
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (i used sharp) |
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese |
1/2 cup chopped tomato (i used 3/4 cup) |
1 (7 ounce) can diced green chilies (i used mild but you can spice it up as you like) |
sour cream, for topping after served |
