Quick and Easy Egg Recipe: Kate's Fluffy Scrambled Eggs

Who loves eggs? I do! This is a quick and easy breakfast treat or brunch treat.  My sister cooked it for us last night and I made my own batch this morning.  You can prepare and cook this for 15 minutes or less, and you won't have that much dishes to wash after either.

Ingredients:

2 large eggs
2-3 tablespoons sweetened soy milk (buy natural and organic)
grated cheese (as much as you want)
Bacos bacon chips (optional)
One fresh tomato (optional)

Procedure:

Whisk eggs, soy milk and grated cheese in a bowl. The more you whisk your eggs, the fluffier it will be.  Cook on a non-stick frying pan.  Make sure pan is hot enough. I use olive oil to make my dish more healthful. Stir constantly until eggs are cooked but still moist and soft.  You don't want to overcook them.  You may want to add a little salt. I personally don't like salt on my eggs.

Top with Bacos and grated cheese and serve with fresh tomato.  Other variations include cooking with mushrooms and basil or topping with a bit of cream cheese. It's hard to go wrong with eggs.

This quick and easy sweet egg recipe serves one or two.  Yummy!

Healthy Options (and sinful choices) for hungry young writers - Pancake House, Megamall

Verdict:  Good for a casual lunch with friends or family.

Damage level:  around PHP 400-450 each, including dessert

They say that there's no such thing as a free lunch. But it looks like I'm being treated to quite a few lately. Last Tuesday was Pancake House free lunch day, and I decided to try their new healthy options.  I wasn't prepared to be taken to a lunch treat, so you'd have to forgive me for the yellowish cellphone photos.

My Healthy Option

Salmon Cakes with Brown Rice Tabbouleh and Dill Mayo (PHP185)

Tabbouleh is a traditional Arab salad made primarily with bulgur, a cereal food consisting of different wheat species. The Pancake House version was supposedly made with brown rice, but this doesn't look brown to me.  Even with the yellowish photo tinge, it clearly looks white, right?  I also couldn't get a taste of any spices. The tabbouleh reminded me of watery white rice with baby food consistency.

According to the menu, the salmon cakes were supposed to be crunchy. I couldn't feel the crunch, but I liked the tender texture of the salmon beneath the breading.  This viand is perfect for those on a low-salt diet.  For those looking for a tastier dish, skip this.

Ching's Healthy Option

Spicy Chicken Fillet with Brown Rice Pilaf, Garlic Cream Mayo and Lemon Wedge 175

Ching tried the chicken paillard (pounded or thinly sliced meat) with pilaf. The dish had strong hints of thyme and was lightly seasoned.   It wasn't salivatingly amazing, but it was a good choice for a healthy eat in Pancake House. I'd rather have this, or better yet, their cream dory, than the tabbouleh.

Sinful Endings

Of course, you can't end a healthy meal with something as tasteless as water.  We just had to have dessert.

The cream cheese didn't exactly "fill" the pancakes, but this was a decent dessert.  Considering that we each ordered mango crepes, I can't complain about not being filled.

Mango Crepes for Three Hungry Young Writers 144 each

Mangoes were sweet and the crepe itself was thin and soft. Next time I order this, I'd have it with my staple ice cream AND whipped cream.  Whipped cream only does not satisfy my sweet tooth.

Any free lunch on a working day is a good lunch, wouldn't you agree? Thanks to our supervisor for the treat!
