Ingredients:
* One whole pastured chicken egg (or at least organic/free-range) -I get my eggs locally from an old-fashioned chicken farm.
* 5-6 egg whites from cheap egg source (Look, pretty much all the toxins will be in the yolk/fat tissue, so you can skimp and buy the cheap eggs to use for the whites, which have the proteins, right?)
* 1/2 cup of chopped veggies of your choice (I tend to keep chopped onion and bell peppers on hand for this purpose. Sometimes I’ll add chopped kale, collards (for calcium & phytonutrients) or even dehydrated wakame (seaweed) for iodine, which helps support thyroid function (the seaweed addition is salty and quite a different flavor, so prepare yourself for a shock)
* 1/2 oz. of organic cheese of your choice -You can add organic Parmasean, Romano, feta, raw goat’s cheese or any cheese of your choice. Keep it organic, if not raw, so as to prevent the ingestion of the recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone (rBGH).

Here’s what you do:

Lightly brush olive oil onto a small frying pan. Place over medium-low heat. Then begin to crack your whole egg and 5-6 egg whites onto the pan. Break the yolk (for quicker cooking) with a spatula and cover with a lid. Gather your veggies together and sprinkle them atop the egg and cover again.

You don’t even need to turn your egg over as long as you keep it covered the heat will convect to the top and cook it through. You’ll know when it’s finished because the yolk will be fully opaque.
Here’s another version with the dried wakame on top, onions & raw goat cheese.

Here is another version with the dried wakame (seaweed), chopped onion & goat cheese. It’s only for the daring, hippy-types! Care to join my club?

Let your Guru Omelet cool on a dish and serve after a few minutes. Enjoy and tell me how you like it. What would you do differently?

This is the version with seaweed. Check my 1/1/09 post to view a video with Swiss chard in its place.

Tuna-Stuffed Summer Tomatoes

Ingredients:

3 cans of drained tuna (the lowest in toxins is the run-of-the-mill chunk light NOT albacore)

1/4c low-fat/no-fat organic yogurt

1t favorite herb (basil, oregano, thyme)

OR

1.5T Bragg’s Liquid Aminos (better version of soy sauce)

OR

1T mustard + 1/2T honey

3 fresh tomatoes

cucumber slices

Preparation:

Mix the first three ingredients together. Get as many clumps out as you can. Next, cut each tomato and core out the seeds (use for something else like a vegetable smoothie, if you dare).  Scoop a couple large spoonfuls of tuna mixture into the tomato shells and garnish with cucumber.  (The garnish police are on strike, so you can use whatever behooves you.)

You’re done.  Let me know how you embellish this.
