Apple Oatmeal Fritata $2.22
Another "anticancer" recipe, brought to us by Dr OZ. I never thought of combining oatmeal and egg until recently when I made a recipe of Jillian Michaels that involved the two super foods, and now I am finding lots of other creative ways to combine the two ingredients. This recipe actually calls for dried apples, but since I am snowbound at my house, I only have dried cherries to work with, so I am going to have to vary the recipe this time, but Im thinking it is going to still be good, and i will just have to make the apple version another day..
You know the gig, this meal is loaded with antioxidents from the oats, and ofcourse fiber, which can play a big role in keeping us heart healthy and controlling diabetes. From the eggs, we obtain protein, iron and Vitamin A which nourishes our skin and helps our vision and vitamin E, which serves as an antioxident. Cherries are an added bonus to give the recipe a sweet, tart contrast and provide more antioxidents.
This recipe is easy to assemble and be microwaved or cooked in a skillet like a pancake
serves 2
ingredients:
4 egg whites .40
2 cups rolled oats .45
1/3 cup cranberries .33
1 tbsp cinnamon .20

remove and serve with apple sauce
in skillet combine all ingredients except for apple sauce and pour in skillet on medium with 2 tsp canola oil
cook 2-3 minutes until egg is cooked and pancake is crispy.
