We love this more for dinner than for breakfast. It's a great meatless meal and easy to prepare without much time. I usually double it and it's really good leftovers too.


2 t olive oil
1/2 onion, finely diced
1 small zucchini, finely diced
1/2 c frozen or canned corn kernels
2 T minced kale, spinach or other leafy green (I just chop spinach up really fine)
1 T minced fresh cilantro
6 eggs
1 t water or milk
tortillas
optional toppings:
cheese
avacado
salsa

Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Stir onion and saute 5 to 10 minutes or until soft. Stir in zucchini and corn. Cover and steam 5-10 minutes until zucchini is tender. Stir in greens and cilantro. Beat eggs with water or milk. Pour over vegetables. Let mixture sit for a minute or two then gently stir around skillet until firm.
Warm tortillas and scoop egg filling down the tortilla, top with cheese and toppings.

This salad was really yummy and healthy. I threw it together in the morning and my family ate it up for lunch. Great way to use leftover brown rice - we love brown rice around here. If your new to brown rice this a good recipe to start with because the dressing masks some of the nutty taste difference between brown and white.


4 c cooked brown rice
3/4 c golden raisins
1/2 c chopped almonds, toasted
3 T. chopped fresh cilantro

Honey - Curry Dressing
2 T lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, crushed or minced
2 t curry powder
1/4 t ground cumin
1/2 t ground tumeric
1/4 t ground ginger
1 T honey (or agave nectar)
4 T flavorless oil (grapeseed, canola, safflower, etc)
1 T toasted sesame oil.

Place rice, raisins, almonds, and cilantro in large bowl. Whisk dressing ingredients together or place in a jar and shake until combined. Pour over rice mixture. Toss until coated and chill at least an hour before serving.
