Attack of the Mizuna, Part III

baked-tomato-and-egg-2-600-x-398.jpg

Everyone knows my love of all things egg, so I had been trying to figure out for a while now how to bring an egg dish to work.  And the mini frittatas were just the start.  I either eat the baked egg dish at room temp or I heat it up in the microwave.  If it’s enough as is, I go with just the egg, or at times, I add a side salad.  Oh, how this will triple my egg consumption.  Does anyone have tricks on how to combat cholesterol?   

Tomato and Mizuna Egg Bake

With the leftover tomato from this broiled recipe, I chopped up the slices of tomato with mizuna and cheese, an additional yellow tomato and added it in to a whipped egg (3) and milk mixture, combined with salt and pepper.  Bake at 350 for 45-ish minutes.  If saving for next day’s lunch – let get to room temp before refrigerating.

    why do you have to let it get to room temp before refrigerating if you’re saving it for the next day’s lunch? just curious.

    yea there are egg beaters. Who knows if it’s worth the switch. It looks good anyway
    Exercise more wouldn’t hurt either

    Maidelitala -it’s a food safety issue. If you put anything warm/hot in a container and close it up, condensation forms, and that’s where bacteria love to grow.

    And if you’re my mom, putting hot stuff in the refrigerator f*s up the system and breaks it. I don’t know if that’s true or not, even though a friend of mine is swearing that’s why her fridge is broken right now.

    woah is that really true? how can hot food break a fridge? sounds kind of crazy to me, but I might stop doing it just to be safe.
