Wasabi Monday

After flushing my eye with water, I cooked up a nice breakfast for this rainy Monday morning. First, I sautéed dried onion, spinach, and peas.
Then, I added one egg and two egg whites.
Once the egg had set around the edges, I sprinkled it with nutritional yeast, and popped it in a 375* oven for 8 minutes and drank my coffee while it cooked.
Voilà! Served up with a little nub of homemade French bread.
I hope it’s not rainy/snowy where you are and that you have a happy Monday!

Oh I SO feel your pain. I have super sensitive eyes to begin with, and once forgot to wash my hands after I cut a jalapeno and put my contacts in…I basically wanted to die.
That is an insanely impressive Monday morning breakfast! Now I have to go find wasabi peas so I can put them in eggs
Wasabi can be such a painful thing, I can’t imagine getting it in the eye…eeks! The first time I tried eating it on top of sushi, I had no idea it was so incredibly hot until I put a big glob in my mouth. I learned my lesson pretty quickly.
Your breakfast looks so nutritious and delicious. Yum!
That is one tasty looking omlette, Miss Katie!
(Thank you for the comment the other day, too!)
I hope your eye is OK.
Ack, wasabi!! Oh how awful…I’m the worst about touching my eye after things like that. I can’t tell you how often I’ve gotten hot sauce in mine.
Love the breakfast idea and thanks for the tutorial on baking it, I usually get impatient and just make a scramble.
Oh no, hope your eye is ok!! That breakfast looks really, really good!! I’m totally impressed with your before school breakfasts, btw!! I’m always eating my yogurt mess as I’m doing 20 other things at work before school starts. I really wish I could get up earlier!!
Wasabi in the eye! Sounds all too painful:(
Wasabi in your eye! Ouch! I rubbed my eyes at a Mexican place once and got some hot sauce in that area. Not a pleasant feeling! Have a great Monday
It’s so sunny here, it’s unreal! Making me wish I didn’t have so much work, haha
Wasabi-eye aside, that looks delish! Hope it made up for the owie! I’m a clutzola too. Sending ya wishes for a great, less painful week!
The sun is shining and it’s actually warm here in KC!! So excited for a spring-like Monday. Hopefully your rain doesn’t last long…
It’s rainy here, but I’m home sick so it’s not bothering me too badly.
Sorry about the wasabi eye!
Wasabi in the eye…holy ouch!
omg ow!!! one time my cousin thought wasabi was green tea ice cream….yeah. didn’t turn out so well. fyi, don’t chug sprite to get rid of the wasabi taste, the carbonation just makes it worse!
I had a similar experience with wasabi peas, except mine involved eating them for dinner and partying WAY TOO HARD on New Year’s Eve. Let’s just say I haven’t eaten them since.
Holy Moly – amazing recipe!
I´m sure it tasted AH-MAZING…
Have a great Tueday, girl!
Brazilian XOXO´s,
