#Valley Eats – Power Packed Breakfast: Scrambled Eggs with Slaw & Greek Yogurt with Blueberries

Get a serving of veggies, fiber and deliciousness at breakfast by adding a large handful of broccoli slaw salad mix to your eggs. The slaw is inexpensive, eliminates prep time and available at most grocery stores with the refrigerated, packaged salad mixes. Feel free to add a little chopped onion and a pre-cooked, chopped turkey sausage link to up the flavor even more. With the eggs, each person can enjoy 1/2 cup unsweetened, nonfat Greek yogurt mixed with 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries for a quick, power-packed breakfast to start your day.

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tablespoon water
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon olive or avocado oil
  • 1 1/2 – 2 cups shredded broccoli slaw salad mix

INSTRUCTIONS

With a fork, whisk the eggs, water, mustard, salt and pepper in a bowl. Set aside. Heat oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the broccoli slaw mix and sauté for about two minutes. Turn heat to low and let pan cool down a minute. Add egg mixture. Gently stir, lifting the egg/slaw mixture up and over from the bottom as it thickens. Continue to stir until the desired texture is achieved.
