Turkey and Asparagus Breakfast Casserole

Servings:
8

Ingredients:
1 lb. Asparagus, chopped into 1" segments
1 lb. ground Turkey
1 Sweet Onion, minced
1 Green Bell Pepper, finely chopped
1 small Tomato, finely chopped
4 Omega 3 Enriched Eggs
1/2 cup Coconut Milk
1/4 Almond Flour
Spices of your choice (I used garlic powder, oregano, black pepper, and paprika)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 425° F.
Cook Asparagus in a saucepan with water until tender. Then remove from heat.
Put Turkey, Onion, Pepper, and Tomato in a large frying pan and cook until there is no pink color left in the Turkey. Mix well while cooking.
Place contents of frying pan in a glass baking dish (I used a 10" pie pan). Then lay asparagus on top of turkey.
In a mixing bowl, whisk Eggs, Coconut Milk, Almond Flour, and Spices well. Pour mixture on top of asparagus and turkey.
Bake for 30 minutes, you'll know it's done when you put a knife in the middle and it comes out clean.

As a lover of quiche, I am very happy with the way this turned out. It's savory and filling, but very healthy!

Spinach Omelet

Servings:
1

Ingredients:
2 Omega 3 Enriched Eggs
1 tsp. Olive Oil
1 cup Spinach, chopped
1 Tbl. Basil, finely chopped
Fresh ground Black Pepper



Directions:
Heat Olive Oil over medium heat in a frying pan.
Beat Eggs in a bowl, and pour into frying pan. Use a spatula to push edges of egg so that any uncooked egg gets directly onto pan.
Once the egg is somewhat cooked put Spinach and Basil on top of half. Grind Black Pepper onto the other half.
Flip the side with Black Pepper onto the side with Spinach and Basil.
Cook evenly on both sides for 1-2 minutes.

This is one of my favorite breakfasts because it's simple, quick, and delicious! I'm also happy to report I have mastered my omelet skills, a few months ago everything was just scrambled together :) On a similar note, I have only recently began to eat grapefruit, and I always saw people eating halves with a fork. I did not know that they cut it up first, needless to say, my first grapefruit was not a success - good thing I found a YouTube video about cutting grapefruits!
