Egg Souffle

This meal can be used for any time of day. We tend to make it at night using left overs and save some for the next morning. It's comfort food! You can eat it cold or warm-up it up for a yummy breakfast or lunch treat.

Main Ingredients:
  • 4-6 eggs, separated yolks, whites.
  • meat (bacon, turkey, ham, sausage, or any combo)
  • 2-4 tablespoons butter or coconut oil
  • Veggies (peppers, potatoes, onions, broccoli or any thing else you want to throw in)
  • sea salt, pepper

Bay House Version:
  • 4 eggs, separated yolks, whites
  • 2 tablespoons butter (or coconut oil if dairy-free)
  • 2 slices of bacon
  • 1/2 cup of left over meat (we used turkey breast, tonight)
  • 1/2 large green pepper 
  • 1/2 large onion
  • 2 medium sized potatoes (omitted if needed for low carb)
  • salt & pepper
  • salsa
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a large non-stick skillet, fry up bacon. 
  3. While the bacon is frying, melt butter, separate eggs, dice veggies into a sugar cube size.
  4. When nice and crispy, remove bacon from the pan. Leave grease. 
  5. Add veggies and meat to the pan. Fry until cooked to your likeness. While frying add salt & pepper and any other spices that you like.
  6. While the veggies are cooking, whip egg whites until stiff peaks form. 
  7. When the veggies and meat are complete, remove from heat but don't turn off the burner. 
  8. This part must be done QUICKLY: Start beating the egg yolks so that they break. While beating,  add in melted butter. Then add the butter & yolk mixture to the egg white mixture. Mix quickly.
  9. Once mixed, cover the veggies/meats in the skillet. Stir once to mix in and shake the pan to distribute mixture. 
  10. Place back on burner for 5 minutes until egg sets.  Crumple the bacon into bits and place on top.
  11. Put in oven for 15 minutes on 350 degrees F. 
  12. Remove and cool for a few minutes. 
  13. Add Salsa and EAT!
Don't forget to place the left overs in the fridge for tomorrow's breakfast! 

Imagine a full skillet there.... ;) We ate it before I realized that I forgot to take a pic. hehe
