I adapted this to cut all but veggie and cheese carbs out... for my pre- diabetic hubbie. please post your adaptations im still improving and this is a first run on this :) Ingredients:
3 eggs, -beaten |
1/2 lb ground beef (turkey, sausage, etc) or 1/2 lb meat, of your choice (turkey, sausage, etc) |
4 eggs, beaten |
1/2 lb ground beef |
2 green onions |
1 cup broccoli floret |
1 tablespoon bacon bits (real is what we used) |
3/4 cup fresh spinach |
1/2 cup cottage cheese |
1/2 teaspoon onion salt |
1 (8 ounce) package shredded cheese, your choice (mozz, cheddar, or blended) |
Directions:
1. brown 1 lb ground beef in skillet, (I boil mine in 2 cups of water its crumblier).
2. in separate bowl beat 3 eggs and add crunched up pork rinds to egg.
3. drain ground beef through a screen type strainer and add half the beef to egg pork rind mix salt and pepper as desired.
4. this should be a thick gooey consistancy (like stuffing).
5. press into the bottom of a square baking pan ( appx 8X8).
6. in bowl beat other 4 eggs add remainder of ground beef, fresh broccoli (in small chunks 1 or less), bacon bits, spinach, cottage cheese and seasonings.
7. -be sure to add salt and pepper to your family's tastes. I used 1/2 tsp of pensys fox point seasoning and 1/2 tsp of pensys bouquet guarni as well-.
8. pour this mixture over the crust .
9. Top everything with shredded cheese.
10. Bake at 350 for 30-45 mins- cheese should just be light browned.
