Tortilla Quiche

 I made a small tortilla quiche just to try it out.  It is a nice change for breakfast.

2 eggs

1/2 c cottage cheese

1 tortilla (I use whole wheat)

1/2 red pepper cut into bits

a few spinach leaves

salt and pepper to taste

1/2 c shredded cheese

Lay the tortilla into a pan so that the tortilla edges curl up the side a bit

Mix in the eggs and cottage cheese

Add salt, pepper, vegetables and top with shredded cheese

Bake at 350F for 25 mins until eggs are set

Cottage Cheese Scrambled Eggs

 I made some cottage cheese scrambled eggs.  We should use more cottage cheese I am thinking.  It was good in a sandwich.

2 eggs

1/2 c cottage cheese

1 green onion chopped

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

Whisk together and scramble!

Nicole's new pizza recipe

 Nicole posted her new pizza recipe and I couldn't wait to try it.  It is now my new pizza recipe.  Thanks a million Nicole!  I used half whole wheat and half white flour in mine.  I used pepperoni, tomatoes and pickled onions for my toppings.  Daughter L had been over and added the toppings.

Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date Pizza theme and Pumpkin Soup

Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date!  Here is my pizza (2 1/2" x 3"), not quite ACEO size.

For the Dinner Date, I made some pumpkin soup using 3 pumpkin pies last month. It was delicious! 

 3 pie pumpkins

 2 tbs olive oil 

1 onion chopped

 1 tbs salt 

3 cloves garlic minced 

1 tsp ground ginger 

1 tsp cumin 

1/2 tsp coriander 

1/2 tsp tumeric 

1/2 tsp ground cardamom (I left this out as I didn't have any) 

1 can coconut milk 

2 1/2 c chicken broth

 1 tbs apple cider vinegar

 1/2 tsp black pepper

 1 1/2 c water

 Preheat oven to 400F Cut pumpkins in half, scoop the seeds out, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper. Bake them cut side down for 40-60 min until softened. When it cools, scoop out the flesh and mash with masher. Heat oil in a soup pot, soften onions, garlic. Add salt, pepper and spices. Add sqush, coconut milk, broth, water. Stir in vinegar. Blend with an immersion blender.
