Veggie Omelet

Image by Eggland's Best

Servings 2
20 min. prep time
10 min. cook time

5 pasture raised eggs
1 avocado
1 cup spinach
1 medium tomato, diced
half medium bell pepper
¼ cup medium red onion, diced
¼ cup minced shallot
¼ cup almond, oat or coconut milk
1 Tbsp coconut oil
1-2 Tbsp dairy-free pesto
2 mushrooms sliced
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp chili flake
1 tsp himalayan salt
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 tsp cayenne
1 tsp chili powder

Combine egg, pesto, dairy-free milk and spices in a medium bowl whisking until the ingredients are completely combined.
Add the garlic, shallot, and veggies.
Heat oil over a stainless steel skillet or cast iron and evenly distribute the mixture into the pan on medium heat.
Allow for the entire bottom to cook before attempting to flip. To help this process use a thin spatula to work slowly around the sides to prep for the flipping processing.
Around 5-8 minutes it should appear as if it has cooked for the most part evenly alongside the bottom, and be easily flipped in half. Allow for this to cook another few minutes before flipping onto the other side.
Once it appears the omelet is cooked to liking, transfer it to a large plate, or split in half to serve on two separate plates.
Garnish with spinach, avocado and your choice of hot sauce. Enjoy!

Tips:

We enjoy our omelet with a fresh side salad with oil and apple cider vinegar and/or homey-potatoes. Mm-mm!
Add cheese as desired for those dairy lovers. You can also substitute alternative oil and milk for your preferred dairy choice.

Buckwheat Granola

1/26/2017

Image by Joe Pineda

5 servings
1.5 hour prep time

3 cups buckwheat groats
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup unsweetened cacao nibs
3 T coconut oil, melted

Set the oven to 260 degree F.
Melt coconut oil and combine with all the ingredients in a bowl. Distribute the oil evenly among all of the ingredients.
Spread out all of the ingredients on a sheet of baking parchment paper and bake for one hour.
Allow granola to cool before storing in a air tight jar or container.

Tips:

Fig juice from the fig bar recipe can be reused for this recipe.
Excessive amounts of sugar should be avoided. Albeit, sugar helps hold the granola together. We prefer them sugar free. This way they are more like healthy grape nuts.
This recipe pairs well with oat milk to create a cereal-like breakfast. Add fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, and nut butter with a dash of cinnamon.
