Eggs trying to hide
title=”You can’t run and you can’t hide - because you’re an egg.” alt=”Eggs hiding under cheese” />
I don’t have children so I don’t really have an excuse for making this. I just had some processed cheese in the fridge, which I generally don’t understand and am always a little unsure how best it might be used. In this experiment, the processed cheese slice did not (as ever) add anything that you would miss were it not there. I like it when narrative is introduced to meal-times, though. Why is the egg hiding? Shame? Guilt? Fear? Depression? The scene could be made a whole lot more dramatic by the addition of a blob of tomato sauce somewhere beneath the cheese blanket.
Serves: 1
Time: 10 mins
Ingredients:
1 egg
1 slice processed cheese
Wholemeal/granary bread
1 Tbsp skimmed milk
1 clove garlic
Half Tbsp olive oil
Half tsp dried herbs such as tarragon, basil, oregano
Black pepper
Small pinch salt
Lo-fat, no-transfat margarine
Ketchup (optional)
Method:
Finely chop the garlic and gently fry it and the pepper in the oil for a few minutes until the garlic is cooked and just starting to colour. Toast a slice of bread. Beat the milk and herbs into the egg, turn the heat up on the garlic and pour in the egg, giving it a quick stir. Let it sit for a few moments while you quickly spread the margarine on the toast. Start to scramble the eggs with a chopstick or something. Just as they are about to set, throw in the pinch of salt and stir it through before tipping it all out onto the toast. If you are feeling macabre, add the blob of ketchup before dropping the cheese slice on top.

I think I could survive quite well eating broccoli, pumpkin, blueberries, fish, spinach, and tomatoes
Simplify your life-and boost your health-with these basic foods that really work You can nibble on goji berries, whip up noni juice smoothies and stock your shelves with antioxidants. But if you’re looking for what really works for optimal health and disease prevention, the best approach is to focus on foods that are rich in disease-fighting phytochemicals.
“Basic foods that have proven health benefits are what we want to emphasize.” says Steven Pratt, MD, author of SuperFoods Healthstyle. “For example, blueberries, broccoli and tomatoes have a large number of peer-reviewed published studies substantiating their health bent- fits. These foods are readily available, inexpensive and have other benefits, such as high fiber content. And they’ve been used for years, with m no drawbacks, side effects or toxicity; you’re never going to see a headline that blucherries are had for you.”
None of the foods on this lop 6 list will surprise you, but they may inspire you and help you feel good about the food you eat.
