Mexican Egg Skillet

[DerHusker]

The wife and I are doing the Weight Watchers program so I’m eating quite a bit differently that I did in the past. This was cooked inside on the stove top, but thought I’d share it anyway. (As it was delicious!)

 

Ingredients:

cooking spray (I used some Red Pepper infused OO spray)

1 medium Golden Potato, Diced into approximately ½” pieces

½ cup onion, chopped

1 medium poblano chile, seeded and diced. (Mine was small so I added some Bell Pepper I had left over)

1 cup corn

1 cup black beans, drained

1 cup zucchini, Diced into approximately ½” pieces (I used a Mexican Squash)

1 tsp cumin (I used ½ tsp of Fajita seasoning and ½ tsp of cummin)

1 pinch salt, or to taste

½ cup, green variety (I used 2 Tbsp of the Hatch Chile and 4 tbsp of Herdez salsa verde - plus extra for garnish)

4 large eggs

2 Tbsp fresh chopped cilantro (for garnish)

 

Here a pic of most of the ingredients I used.

I started out by dicing up the potato and putting it in a slightly sprayed Non-Stick skillet to start cooking.

Once it started to brown, I put the onion, poblano and bell peppers.

Once it started to sweat, I added the black beans, corn, squash and seasoning. I let this cook for approximately 6 to 7 minutes.

After that I stirred in the Hatch chilies and Salsa Verde and let that cook another minute.

I then made 4 depressions in the mixture and crack the eggs in them.

I covered the skillet to help the tops of the eggs cook.

And afterwards I plated it up with some wheat toast.

 

As I said, this was delicious and except for the toast, it was zero points for the Purple Program we’re on!

 

Thanks for looking.

Looks great but as John Pinette would have said:  “It needs Gluten!”

Thanks Jeffie. And FYI: The wheat toast is the gluten.

And breakfast today = Another (although slightly different) Mexican Egg Skillet.

Here it is plated.
