2 New and Super Easy Breakfast and Dinner Recipes

March 9, 2010

As many of you have heard me say before, I love to be a mad scientist in the kitchen. When healthy eating is your way of life, you’ve got to keep your meals new and interesting which is why I love to experiment with new recipes all the time, making them (of course) Diet Solution approved.

Today from the “mad scientist” kitchen of Isabel, I have these two recipes for you:

The first recipe is something my husband still likes to make fun of me for. He says it’s “too weird” and “looks gross”…but you know what? I love it! It’s my own creation (at least I think so).

Isabel’s Oatmeal Concoction

Ingredients

½ cup dry oatmeal (slow cook oats, not instant) made with water.

2 organic eggs

Cinnamon and stevia to sweeten (optional)In order to make this a fast and easy breakfast, I cook the oatmeal the night before (while I’m cooking dinner) or make 2-3 servings of it at once and store in the refrigerator for the next few days.
I put my serving of oatmeal in a saucepan and heat up. Once the oatmeal is really hot, I crack the eggs right into the oatmeal (like egg drop soup) and stir them into the oatmeal without breaking the yolk. The whites and the yolk cook in the hot oatmeal. I then sweeten it with a bit of stevia and cinnamon.
I love it! And it takes me less than 10 minutes to make in the morning. You’ve got to try this one. You will either thank me or you’ll make fun of me like my husband.

This next recipe I found on the internet and modified it a bit. It originally included some creamy sauce that called for mayonnaise, but once I made it, it was so delicious, it didn’t need any creamy sauce on top.

Easy Broiled Salmon Steaks

Ingredients

Salmon steaks

2 TBSP melted butter per steak (depending on how many steaks you’re doing)

Minced chives, parsley, and dill (about 1 TBSP for 3-4 TBSP of butter)

Celtic Sea Salt and Pepper to taste

Fresh lemon juice

Lemon wedgesPreheat your broiler (Low setting). Brush the tops of the salmon steaks with a bit of melted butter and put them under the preheated broiler for about 5 minutes per side (for 3/4″ thick steaks). While they’re broiling mix up the rest of the melted butter, chives, parsley, dill, salt, pepper, and lemon juice.You know the fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork. Take a fork and poke at the fish a bit. If it falls apart easily, it’s done. Mine took about 10 minutes. About a minute before the salmon is cooked through, pour the rest of the flavored butter over it and then continue broiling.

Serve with lemon wedges.

Trying out new recipes and cooking healthy meals is always easier when your kitchen is already stocked with the “fat burning” essentials. I always have organic eggs, coconut oil, olive oil, oatmeal, chicken or fish, and raw nuts…along with several other items…handy in the fridge so I can put together quick and easy meals.

If you’re wondering exactly what you should stock up in your own fat burning kitchen, my good friend and colleague Mike Geary can tell you just that in his book (appropriately named) Fat Burning Kitchen.
