MARINA SE EIER EN SPEK MUFFINS
Geen “Carbs” eier en spek muffins. Lekker gesond vir die kinders se kosblik ook! Ek bak hierdie weekliks vir ons, my man vat van dit werk toe vir ‘n 10 uur snack of ligte middagete saam met ‘n lekker groen slaai. Jy kan enige iets bysit soos jou smaakorgane en voorkeure jou voorskryf… die basis is 6 eiers en 1-2 koppies kaas.
Resep maak 12 muffins

6 eiers, geklits in ‘n bak soos vir roereiers, met room of melk (ek gebruik free range)
Voeg die volgende by:
½ pakkie gekapte spek, vir variasie sit ek soms tuna in
1 grof gekapte ui / sprietui
1 – 2 koppies sterk cheddar kaas, gerasper
sout en peper na smaak
klein bietjie chilli flakes, opsioneel
klein stukkies brokkoli, opsioneel

Skep in muffin pannetjie (12 klein of 6 groot pan)
Bak 180°C vir 30 min of tot lekker bruin bo-op.
Bêre dit in ‘n lugdigte houer – dit hou 5 dae in die yskas.

IMOGEN’S MICROWAVE OMELETTE
3 eggs
full cream milk
chopped onion
chopped tomato
chopped viennas

Whisked up the eggs and a half cup of full cream milk and added a dash of pepper only. I took a Pyrex dish, shallow, and coated it with melted butter and then added the egg mixture. I cooked it for about 5/6 minutes but checked every now and again and once or twice I “worked” the middle of the dish so as to let the raw egg get through.
In my electric frying pan I quickly fried the onions, viennas and tomato and VOILA…..
Tipped half the omelette onto the plate – dressed it and slid the other half on top of that! Cheese!!!…. and we are good to go! Boss is smiling – I am smiling!

ZIPLOG SAKKIE OMELETTE
Ek het vanoggend besluit om omelette in ziplog sakkies te maak.
Ek het groen soetrissies, spinasie en salami fyn gesny.
Drie eiers per persoon geklits en bietjie van die vulsel by die geklitsde eier gevoeg met sout en peper na smaak. Voeg die mengsel in ziplog sakkies, plaas die sakkies in ‘n pot met kookwater, ek kon 3 sakkies in my pot pas.
Laat dit kook vir 13 minute en haal die sakkies uit die pot. Glip die omelette uit die sakkies op ‘n bord en geniet. Almal se borde is skoon en ek is happy.

EIER WOLKIES

4 eiers geskei
sout en peper na smaak
½ kop gaar gekapte spek
¼ kop gerasperde kaas

Klits die eierwitte tot styf.
Vou die res van die bestanddele by.
Skep 4 hopies op ‘n bakplaat en maak ‘n gaatjie met die agterkant van ‘n lepel.
Bak teen 230°C tot die hopies ‘n egalige ligte bruin is, so 6 tot 8 minute.
Skep nou versigtig ‘n eiergeel in elke gaatjie en bak nog 3 tot 6 minute, afhangende van hoe jy van eiergeel hou.

CAULIFLOWER CHEESE AND BACON TARTS
Ingredients:
460 g (16.2 oz) of cauliflower
2 Tbsp of heavy cream
15 g (0.5 oz or 1 Tbsp) of butter
60 g (2 oz) of grated tasty cheddar cheese
1 egg
90 g (3.2 oz) of grated cheddar cheese (I used colby)
180 g (6.3 oz) of streaky bacon
Salt and pepper to taste
Recipe:
Preheat the oven to 190 C (375 F).
Cook the bacon, and chop or crumble into small pieces.
Clean and trim the cauliflower, breaking it into medium sized pieces. If the cauliflower has a hard outer skin, peel this off (to prevent a grainy texture).
Place the cauliflower in a microwave safe bowl with the cream and the butter, and microwave uncovered for 5 minutes on high.
Stir to coat the cauliflower with the cream/butter mixture, and microwave for another 4 minutes on high.
Remove from the microwave and put into a high speed blender or food processor along with the tasty cheese. Puree until smooth and season with the salt and pepper to taste.
Add the egg to the mash and mix well.
Put the mixture into a greased muffin tray to make 12 bases (approximately 2 Tbsp of mash per base). Shape the mixture so that it covers the bottom of the pan and goes half-way up the side (approximately 1 cm or half an inch thickness all around).
Bake the bases for 30 minutes until they dry out and firm up. If they are still too soft then add them back for a few more minutes.
Take the tray out of the oven. Using a butter knife or a spoon, release the bases gently from the muffin tray and place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
Fill the bases with the remaining cheese and the bacon, and put the tarts back in the oven for 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted.

MILLET GROATS BREAKFAST

If somebody doesn’t like millet groats they should try millet flakes. They have a nice delicate taste and when boiled are similar to semolina. They boil fast so they are excellent as a nutritious breakfast. Added fruit and crunchy roasted sesame and sunflower seeds will make it the favourite breakfast of the whole family.

Ingredients (for 2 people):
50g of millet flakes
300ml of coconut milk
3 tablespoons of xylitol
½ teaspoon of vanilla essence
3 apples
½ teaspoon of cinnamon
2 tablespoons of sesame seeds
2 tablespoons of sunflower seeds

Roast the sesame and sunflower seeds in a dry pan.
Peel and dice the cleaned apples. Stew in a saucepan in a bit of water. When the apples are almost ready, add 2 tablespoons of xylitol and cinnamon and lemon juice. Leave to cool down.
Put the millet flakes and milk in a saucepan with a heavy bottom. Boil for 3-5 minutes. Turn off the heat. Add the vanilla essence and the rest of the xylitol. Mix it in. Put it into a small bowl. Add a layer of apples. Sprinkle with sesame and sunflower seeds.
