This was my lunch yesterday. Keeping in mind that my meals need to be rich in protein and with a side of at least 2 servings of veggies, I thought of making this. I do not have an oven-safe pan I followed my friend PeeGee’s (her blog) tip and covered the handle of my pan with aluminium foil before I put it into the oven.
This is what I needed:
- 1/2 C chicken, boiled and shredded
- 1 cup spinach (I used frozen, organic)
- 1/4 C cheese. I used shredded cheddar and Monterrey jack. You can use any of your choice.
- 4 large eggs
- 1tbs butter
- A dash of milk, roughly a tbs
- 1/2 tsp of grated garlic
- Salt & Pepper to taste
This is how I made it:
- Preheated the oven to 350F
- Added the butter to the pan and to it added the shredded chicken and sauteed till it browned a bit.
- Added the thawed spinach and cooked awhile.
- To it added the grated garlic and cooked till the raw smell was gone.
- Added the 4 eggs that I had whisked in a separate bowl along with a dash of milk and S&P.
- Cooked on the stove top on medium heat till it set.
- Sprinkled the cheese and stuck it in the oven for about 10-12 minutes till it turned golden.
This is a good option for breakfast and I love having breakfast for lunch.
this sounds good! will try this on the stove!
