Tuna Garden Omelette


Hubby is on a week-long school break so I had to prepare fish meal for him everyday. Sad to say, I was too tired to cook the night before so I had to use my magic kitchen wand the following morning before running off to work. đŸ˜­đŸ˜ąđŸ˜“đŸ˜„

My mind must have been actively working in my sleep that when I woke up I was able to quickly draw a mental picture of what to cook. So there... straight to the cupboard, then to the veggie bin, I went to prepare the ingredients for another version of Garden Omelette. 

Ingredients:

1 can of Doña Elena Tuna Chunks in Sunflower Oil
Onion, sliced
Tomato, sliced
Mushroom slices
Salt, pepper and curry powder to taste
A bunch of french beans
1 red or green bell pepper, diced
A handful of spinach leaves
2 eggs, slightly beaten

Directions:
  1. Pour oil from the canned tuna to frying pan. 
  2. SautĂ© onions, tomatoes and tuna chunks. 
  3. Add mushroom slices. 
  4. Add salt, pepper and curry powder to taste. 
  5. Add french beans. Simmer until tender. 
  6. Add bell pepper and spinach leaves. 
  7. Add beaten eggs. Spread eggs evenly to cover the veggies. Simmer while waiting for eggs to settle. 
  8. Serve with wheat bread or as toppings on fried rice. 
I love garden omelette for breakfast. It’s fast and easy to cook. Very practical for a working person like me. I just make variations in the ingredients, depending on what’s available. 

This is the first time I used Doña Elena Tuna Chunks in Sunflower Oil. I bought it at a promo price in a food bazaar. A can full of tuna at PhP20 lesser cost than its regular price at the grocery store is not bad at all! The flavor of the tuna has captivated my tastebuds! 



I also added a pinch of curry powder. I love using curry powder for my dishes these days. Thanks to Ayana Grace for bringing home several variants of curry powder from her recent trip to India. I love the smell of curry powder! 


My first time to add french beans to my omelette, too! No regrets for this experiment. I so loved the crunch!!! 

Now it’s time to have coffee. Please join me...

Pesto Spanish Sardines Pasta: A Remake

There's a saying that goes, "One is enough, two is too much..." Uh uhhh, not for this!!! I'm referring to the Spanish Sardines Pasta which was my welcome post this year. My daughter, Ayana Grace, bought a bottle of pesto from the grocery store last month (she usually does...we seldom run out of pesto sauce in our cupboard) and I just wasn't able to resist making another try of the Pesto Spanish Sardines Pasta so here it is...

Ensaladang Mustasa

It's back to work today, after five days of rest, something I've been looking forward to. As if the  long Christmas holiday vacation was not enough :) Well, days just seem to fly so fast! Thanks to the additional non-working holidays brought about by the Pope's visit to my country, the Philippines. I had time to relax, stay at home, bond with family and yes, sort picture files in my computer. In between social networking, of course, I cooked for my family. With my husband home, there has to be fish and vegetables on the dining table. There was a bunch of mustasa (mustard) leaves left in the vegetable bin. What could be a better and perfect partner to fried fish than Ensaladang Mustasa (Mustard Salad)? Very simple and easy, here's how I did it. Ingredients: 1 bunch of mustasa leaves Rock salt 2 medium-sized tomatoes, sliced 1 small onion, sliced thinly 3 tbsps vinegar Iodized salt, ground pepper and sugar to taste Steps: 1. Cut mus...

Ensaladang Alugbati (Malabar Spinach Salad)

This post appeared in my Facebook memories today. I'm glad it did! I featured this salad in my FB page a year ago.  Alugbati  (Malabar Spinach)  Salad (Ensaladang Alugbati). This came up when I received for the first time this bouquet of alugbati from Erik, my officemate. He shares with us fruits and veggies fresh from his garden.
