A Flavor Pop for Scrambled Eggs

     Like every one else I'm sure, we like to make our scrambled eggs a little different and interesting each time we cook them. My daughter made breakfaat this morning and when she served the plate I noticed that she included a couple wedges of lime on the side. I'm not really a big fan of limes, I can take them or leave them.

     She explained that she tore up small pieces of corn tortillas and added them to the eggs and that the lime was to squeeze on top. I had already tasted a couple of fork fulls and they were good with the tortillas, in fact I could taste them but couldn't identify her secret ingredients right away. Then when I put the lime on top, Wow! It made the whole dish pop with flavor. The lime worked perfectly with the mixture  of egg and corn tortilla..It's an easy, inexpensive, and healthy meal. Try it for yourself.

Pandemic

     We know that not everyone dies from the flu, even this flu. This is the perfect time to start eating more fruits and vegetables to strenghthen your immune system. Every little thing you can do helps in this time of a possible pandemic.

     Just remember to wash your produce well, and keep washing those hands.

What's Good Now

     Just a short post to remind you not to waste your money on certain fruits and vegetables. I'm in the midwest and can tell you that green and red grapes are very small tart and of poor quality right now. They are on some good sales right now, but that's because they are having trouble selling them. I like my grapes to be crisp, and sweet so I am waiting another month or so till they hit peak season.

     The same goes for melons especially watermelons. They just aren't good out of season. They are not sweet or crisp inside. I have decided to just pass them up and wait.

     I have been finding fantastic savings on grape and cherry tomatoes and when you buy them and they appear smooth without wrinkles, they are wonderful and just pop in your mouth. Great for salads of course, they are even better as snacks.
