SOUTHWESTERN EGG SCRAMBLE: Daily Diabetic Recipe

SOUTHWESTERN EGG SCRAMBLE

Yield: 4 servings
Source: "The Complete Diabetes Prevention Plan"

INGREDIENTS
- 3/4 cup canned (drained) hominy
- 2 tablespoons chopped green chilies
- 2 cups fat-free egg substitute
- 1/2 cup shredded, reduced-fat Monterey Jack
(plain or with hot peppers) or Mexican cheese blend

DIRECTIONS
Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray
and preheat over medium heat. Add the hominy to the
skillet and cook for about 1 minute, until heated through.

Stir the chilies into the egg substitute and pour over
the hominy. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook without
stirring for several minutes, until the eggs are set
around the edges. Stirring gently to scramble, continue
to cook for another minute, until the eggs are almost set.

Sprinkle the cheese over the eggs and cook just until the
eggs are set but not dry and the cheese is melted. Serve hot.
