Scrambled Egg Whites With Scallions and Veggie Bacon
This is a recipe based off what I can remember from the cookbook "The Art of American Indian Cooking" by Yeffe Kimball and Jean Anderson. The book has disappeared somewhere in my house and I haven't been able to locate it yet. This is my most frequently chosen meal for hot breakfast because it's healthy, quick and can be taken on the go. I'm not much of a fan of onions or onion-like plants but I do like scallions and I substitute them anywhere a recipe calls for onions. [The one exception is shallots which I frequently use in most soups.] This is a recipe that could win over almost any picky eater. I also like this recipe because it has the taste quality of a dish you'd find in places like Hugo's Restaurant or Du-par's but its simplicity gives the feeling of classic comfort/homemade food. …
Ingredients
4 serv.Step-by-step instructions
- 1
Coat the bottom of a skillet or frying pan with cooking spray and heat on medium heat. Mince the Smart Bacon and add to the pan. Spray lightly with a thin layer of cooking spray and stir for a minute.
- 2
Slice the scallions vertically into two to three thin strips and then cut them into thin slices, carrying up to the green parts. Check to make sure there is no mold or dirt in the greener parts of your scallions before slicing. If there is, don't use these parts. Add the chopped scallions to the minced veggie bacon and keep stirring for about three to four minutes or until the bacon starts to brown slightly. You want to crisp the Smart Bacon but you don't want to burn it, so keep an eye on the bacon. Set a timer if you need to because this stuff can burn easily if you don't pay attention.

Turn the heat down to low, add the turmeric and keep stirring for another minute.
- 4

- 5
