(This morning, I've got Ashlee Simpson, Mary J. Blige and Carrie Underwood on the ipod as I cook.)
I eat eggs often. I tend to think I have an insulin resistant problem, so I try to keep sugary foods at bay. Doesn't always work, but I try. Also, as I said yesterday, I attempt to eat all produce first, before I resort to foods that can last longer in the pantry. So veggies and fruits are the first things I reach for, when they're in the fridge.
This morning, I'm going to have fried eggs over asparagus, mushrooms and tomatoes. First, I load up my veggie steamer with asparagus. My steamer has been through the mill. The timer doesn't work, I lost the lid, the bowl is cracked and missing handles, and the only way to turn it off is to unplug it. But it still serves its purpose.....
Next, I put a teaspoon of oil and one small pat of butter (for flavor) in the frying pan and throw the mushrooms in. Salt and pepper. I cook these down until there's enough room to toss my eggs in there, too.
Then, once there's enough room to fry two eggs, I add another couple drops of oil, then crack the eggs in there. Salt, pepper, garlic herb seasoning.
I flip them when the egg white's translucency is gone, then today I added a few thick slices of tomato. Salt, pepper, sprinkle of parmesan cheese. I only add tomatoes at the last minute, because I hate when tomato skin is cooked too long. Then about a minute later, I get 'em all out of there and plated it up.
Then, to finish if off, I shred a few slices of pecorino/romano overtop with the veggie peeler. Mangia!
