The Incredible Edible Egg

Last night I got home late from a meeting (no, summer doesn't mean no work for profs!), and was starving. Hunger and appetite are new things for me; I think it's been about four or five years since I last felt hungry!

So, I needed food fast. The fastest thing I could think of? Eggs.

I seasoned some organic polenta with fresh ground Himalayan salt, fresh ground black pepper, and Herbes aux Provence. I fried the polenta in Grapeseed oil while warming some corn tortillas in my toaster oven. Once the polenta set, I added two organic, cage-free eggs, and the tortillas torn into pieces, along with some additional salt & pepper. Finally, I threw some Trader Joe's salsa verde around the edges.

Yum. This is my new favorite fast meal.

Eggs truly are a wonderful food - versatile, quick to prepare, and so delicious served in so many different preparations! Your own egg-creation sounds plenty enticing to me. Yum.

Eggs have become my backup plan food; if I'm late or tired, I know I can count on something that tastes good and is nutrious. I'm also enjoying buying them from local farms and seeing the interesting colors they come in!
