I was cleaning out my fridge the other day, and found leftover fresh spinach, bell peppers, and always have fresh ripe tomatoes on hand, since we have tomatoes all year round in S. Florida. I have not taken any photos of my foods lately, since my Red Clam Sauce, so at the last minute, I took some pictures of my simple Scrambled Eggs. I always have wonderful pita breads in my freezer (not homemade)...but one of these days!
I had to fast since last night because I had to have my 'blood tests' for my routine checkup this morning, and I stopped at the nearest breakfast place in my 'old' neighborhood...and what a 'letdown'...just for a simple egg sandwich...sigh!...I prefer my own scrambled egg sandwich, and I'm sticking to my promise next time...'MAKE YOUR OWN!'
Scrambled Eggs in Pita Pocket
my own concoction; by, Elisabeth
2 large eggs (scrambled in a small bowl)
1 medium onion chopped (I used red onion)
1 bell pepper diced, or pepper of your choice
(I used yellow bell pepper)
A handful of fresh baby spinach
1 cup (8 oz) grated cheddar cheese or cheese of your choice
2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
Just let the eggs settle carefully, add the salt and pepper.
Carefully separate the eggs in the middle, add the grated cheese, and just let it cook for a few minutes...do not stir, or disturb the egg mixture any longer...done!...ready to serve!...that simple:)
Hi Elisabeth, that's a very delicious scrambled eggs. Love the amount of filling that you stuff inside the pita bread, so yummylicious!
ReplyDeleteI love pita bread too cos it's so versatile, you can stuff any kind of filling. I use to make my own, so far have not try the store brought pita.
Love the beach picture very beautiful. You are lucky to stay near sea front, can enjoy your cup of coffee with sea view.
Have a nice day week ahead, regards. With hugs to you.
The beach looks amazing...wild and rough!
ReplyDeleteAnd the eggs...you have a way of making me hungry!
I should try this. My hubs is such an egg guy but I don't eat them and never quite know what to make with them. This is perfect, he'd love it.
ReplyDeleteI would give my right arm for a view like that. I look out my window and see about 4 to 6 neighbours houses at any given time of the day.
The eggs look scrumptious and I LOVE the wild scene at the beach!
ReplyDeleteWhat's that about throwing in the towel!? Noooooo!!!
ReplyDeleteDid you really miss me that much? Sigh. I'm here with a ton of hugs. I've had a couple of crappy months and have been awol with blog love and everything else. I must have missed out on what's been causing you to think of giving this up. I have been reading on and off but am one of the silent ones being in no mood to say anything.
Things have settled a little and I will be back full blast and making sure you are too!
Do continue. You are such a pillar of support for so many.
Sorry, that got me so bad, I'd totally forgot about the lovely scrambled eggs. Did I mention I love eggs in any form?
Glad you aren't throwing in the towel. If it makes you happy and it's not hurting anyone else, then just do it, that's what I've been trying to live by more. Plus you have lots more great advice still to share I'm sure. Hope you have a great rest of the week.

Elisabeth, love the scrambled eggs! I am an egg lover and love whatever food with eggs in them :) Love the pita bread with the scrumptious eggs. This is a great idea for a packed lunch to take to work. I haven't been to the beach for ages. We have nice beaches back in Terengganu, my hometown. Do miss it quite a bit.
ReplyDeleteOMG-I envy so mych to have such a panorama from the window!!!:)

ReplyDeleteGlad you're not throwing in the towel. You've been a terrific blogging friend to a lot of people, whenever you can. . . . love the eggs.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous view, darling! A great place to work up an appetite for some super yummy pitas!
ReplyDeleteEli, have you a spare room to rent out? I want to move in with you! Love your beautiful balcony view.
ReplyDeleteThese pita sandwiches look mouthwatering.
Elisabeth,
ReplyDeleteEvery now and then, we all need a break:) Your scrambled eggs, with the spinach and cheese, are amazing. I like to put spinach in my scrambled eggs, too.
Elisabeth I loved your expression "let the egg settle" that is the key Elisabeth isn't? Working with the ingredients and not against them... Your food has love written all over it, yes that is what it is.
ReplyDeleteKedves Elizabeth! Nagyon szeretjük a blogodat, és ha te is örömödet leled benne és van mit írnod, mondanod, akkor miért ne?! :) Szenzációs a tojásos pitád is! :)
ReplyDeleteI love scrambled eggs and until this post, never thought to stuff them in a pita pocket! Love this idea and recipe.
ReplyDeletei would love to have this for my breakfast on the go. pita pocket will surely keep the scrambled eggs in place, while you drive. great idea!

I woudln't mind having this for breakfast or for lunch. I know it's not a bagel but it sure does reminds me of the 2 breakfasts we had in that Bagel Shop in SF. LOL.. a hearty warm breakfast can never hurt anyone. Have a great weekend ahead! I am certainly looking forward to it. HUggss
ReplyDeleteÉn is szeretem a blogodat! A receptek nagyon jók és a sok fotó a lakhelyed közeléből pedig mindig lenyűgöznek. Mint most is! A tenger csodás! A pita szintén! :o)
ReplyDeleteKedves Elisabeth nagyon örülök, hogy nem hagytad abba a blogolást, és itt maradtál velünk. Bizony nagyon hiányoztak volna a finomságaid, és a csodálatos fotók, melyekkel megajándékozol bennünket.Most valahogy én is ritkábban vagyok, kicsit beleuntam, de annyi munkánk van a blogírásban, hogy nem szabad feladni.
ReplyDeleteCsodálatos reggelit készítettél, itt nálunk most éppen reggeliidő van, így szívesen látnám a tányéromon. Szeretem az ilyen mindent bele rántottát, és a pitában valami isteni finom lehet. Puszillak
I had my blood drawn on Wednesday, too! I should have stopped at your house for breakfast afterward...you were serving a much yummier meal. This is exactly how I like in my scrambled eggs... simple, with veggies and cheese! Glad you're not throwing in the towel :) xo
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful way to serve eggs, your pitas look delicious and I'd love to eat them sitting on that beach, though I think anything would be wonderful sitting on that beach!
ReplyDeleteSo good to see you again! I always like reading what you have to say! I prefer my own scrambled eggs as well...and I often will add spinach to mine and chopped tomatoes. Yours breakfast sandwich looks scrumptious! The Florida storm crop up fast don't they? and then they're gone! I always like looking at the water stormy or calm. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend! Cheers!

ReplyDeleteIt is such an ingenious way to use eggs, Elisabeth! I'm so sorry I have missed this incredible recipe! Your gorgeous filled pita opens so many ideas to my beloved eggs.
ReplyDelete(I'm glad you have decided to continue bringing as joy and visual feasts with your blog!).
Hi Elisabeth- I think you and I like to eat the same kind of foods because every post you make is calling out to me- now I want scrambled eggs with sliced tomatoes! Sorry I'm behind on your blog-have a little catching up to do;-)
