Salsa Scrambled Eggs With Peppers And Onions



Recommended Posts

I came across this recipe online while searching for high Protein pureed recipes and thought I would share. It says it makes one serving though it seems to me it might be on the large side based on the quantity of ingredients, and it is a bit high in calories but it does sound delicious. I'm excited to try it.

Salsa Scrambled eggs with Peppers and Onions

Ingredients:

3 eggs

1⁄2 medium raw green pepper

1⁄4 medium raw onion

1⁄4 c salsa

2 tbsp. whole milk mixed with 4 tbsp dry milk

2 tsp. vegetable oil

Instructions:

Clean and chop pepper and onion into small pieces; puree in food processor; set aside. Puree salsa & set aside in a separate bowl. Combine eggs and milk in a bowl; mix with a fork until blended. Heat 1 tsp of oil in medium frying pan. Sauté’ mixture into pan and mix constantly with wooden spoon (goal is to scramble eggs). Remove from heat when eggs are thoroughly cooked (not runny). Pour salsa over scrambled eggs and ENJOY!!!

I do the same type of recipe but use one, maybe two eggs, fat free milk and use Pam instead of the oil, way less calories and still tastes fabulous! I sometimes throw a couple tbsp's of grated cheese too, even a dollup of fat free sour cream.....yummy! It doesnt have as much Protein but way less fat.

Those are great suggestions to modify the recipe. I will have to try them!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
