Another wonderful healthy recipe. Very quick and easy to prepare and so filling. If you don't like Italian seasoning this would be good with other spices of choices, I'm thinking Mexican would be great. Thanks for posting this keeper for me, I'll be making this often. -
This was great. I didn't have any tortillas on hand, so I used a few chips instead. I made a few substitutions for what I had on hand---onion for shallot, turkey deli meat for turkey bacon and I left out the green peppers since I don't like them. I also tried some goat cheese in place of the mozzarella and highly recommend it. This was such a healthy breakfast. Hubby and I both enjoyed it (esp with a dollop of low-fat sour cream). Thanks for the recipe! ~ La Gourmande

Me in my kitchen, and at the Wild game.
I am a photographer, portrait and fine art, and I am a yoga instructor. Besides cooking, I enjoy fitness and yoga, reading, organizing, gardening, puzzles, family, and HOCKEY. GO WILD!!!! I love to cook for my large husband...he is a natural powerbuilder and has a lot of muscle to feed. People ask how he got so "huge" and he has to answer, my cooking of course!
We both work out a lot, so we eat a lot of healthy food...I cook a LOT! The recipes I post and save to my cookbooks are usually healthy and lower calorie, or can be adapted to be so.
