No recipe. Tried to buy things in small amounts so I didn't have a ton.
Handful of green beans, two yellow potatoes, handful of pink beans (dried and cooked prior), small white onion, small can of corn, small zucchini, carrot, celery, 1/2 pound cooked ground beef, fresh parsley, dried thyme, oregano, salt, pepper, beef broth, V8 juice, a little tomato paste and a parmesan rind. Veggies cut into pieces, about the size of the corn kernels. Tomatoes and carrots were cut to be a little larger. Cooked until veggies were tender then added a handful of baby spinach, cut in strips and a small amount of fresh basil, also cut in strips. Very good and not too much. Just enough leftover for someone to have another meal or two people to have it as a starter. For the soup hater in the house, I tried that omelet in a bag that is going around on FB. She liked it but it was too much food. I wasn't too pleased with the overall results. The eggs showed a lot of white. You are supposed to crack your eggs into a high quality, gallon sized freezer bag, then squeeze out the air and shake until mixed. This did not work. I had to use my hands to squish the yolks. Then I shook. Looked okay at the time but clearly wasn't mixed well. You can add whatever you like. I added a little black pepper, red pepper, green onion, cheddar cheese and diced ham. Mix again then seal the bag, once again, removing excess air. Drop in a pot of boiling water. Supposed to cook for 13 minutes for 3 eggs, 15 minutes for 4. I used 4. I could tell that 15 min. would not have been enough. She likes well cooked eggs. Husband probably would have eaten it. He likes runny eggs. Boiled for another 3 min. Plopped it out on a plate, cut in half and... Still runny. 30 sec. in the microwave fixed that. She liked it except for it being too much food. Doubt I will make one this way again though unless she specifically asks for it. I did read that this was excellent to make while camping or if you have several people to serve who all want different ingredients. Maybe. But to me, making an omelet the regular way is pretty easy to begin with. |
