Asparagus,Tomato and Dill Egg Bake

May 9, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 22 Comments

Hi Everyone!!

I have to tell you up front, I was so bad at dinner tonight!  Oh my gosh!  Here’s the excuse:  I was so busy at work, that I didn’t get a chance to eat breakfast or lunch, then I had my hair appointment after work, so I went 14 hours without eating, except for two cups of decaf coffee and a few almonds.  I was starving by the time I got home from the hair dressers.  I told myself, no going crazy and eating everything in sight!  I tend to do that when I’m hungry, so I told my Husband I have to eat and I’m to tired to cook, so we went and got burgers at Kinders BBQ.  First I will tell you I was good, I ordered it without mayo and cheese.  Yah!  I saved a couple hundred calories there.  But I did order some lime flavored sweet potato fries.  I couldn’t resist the fries, they are the best!  But when they served me my burger, I almost feel over!  It was two 1/3 pound patties!  TWO!!!  I was going to take a patty out, but my Husband said, enjoy it, you haven’t eaten today and at that point I didn’t care!  It was so good!  But I did only eat half of it, my Gosh it was HUGE!  I did manage to eat all my sweet potato fries though.  My dinner was so fantastic in a bad way!  Then I came home and calculated my calories to the best of my knowledge since they didn’t have a nutritional chart for the meals.  My dinner came in at about 1100 calories!  Man, what the heck!  I am glad I didn’t eat all the bun or the burgers.  But  dam!  Glad I didn’t eat anything else.  I guess you can say this was my splurge meal of the week!  You can bet my fanny I’ll be hitting the gym and working out hard tomorrow.  Sorry I had to get that off my chest!  That was so wrong!  I should have went to Panera Bread!  Do you ever do things like that?

Asparagus and Tomato Egg Bake

As you can see from today’s recipe, it’ s not a huge bad for you burger, but it’s the dinner I had the other night.  There is nothing wrong with eating breakfast for dinner!    I just wish my Husband liked to do that more often.  But with this meal I served him some bacon, so he was happy!!  This is my Baked Eggs with Asparagus, Tomatoes and Dill.

Asparagus and Tomato Egg Bake


The combination of tomato and asparagus is simply wonderful and to boot I added some fresh dill, which made it all the better.  For some odd reason in my CSA box last week, they gave me 4 asparagus spears.  How can I serve anyone dinner with 4 spears?  What do you do with that?  So that is when I thought of putting them into eggs.  Perfect!!  To make the asparagus soft, I cooked them in some water in the microwave for about a minute before baking them.  It worked out like a charm!  They turned bright green and were soft, but too soft.

Asparagus and Tomato Egg Bake

For the eggs I used 3/4 cups egg substitute.  I like the brand Redi-Egg, which I buy at Trader Joe’s.  Add some milk, scallions, onion and garlic powder and poured over my vegetables.  Baked it in the oven for 30 minutes and it turned out light and fluffy!  Oh and of course I added some lite mozzarella cheese on top.  You can use any kind of cheese you like, but I kind of have a thing for mozzarella.

Asparagus and Tomato Egg Bake

I like making egg bakes because you can add anything you like to them.  I served these at Christmas time and they were a hit.  My whole family said they never had baked eggs.  I’m like what?  I make them all of the time, but I make them for me, because when I say baked eggs, I get the ugh look.  Trust me, if you like quiche or frittatas you will love baked eggs!  What I did at Christmas time, was I let everyone fill their own ramekins with whatever filling these preferred.   They loved that idea!  Little Jenny had all cheese, my husband had bacon, cheese and mushrooms and Jenny’s boyfriend had his like mine, with onions, peppers and cooked chicken sausage.  I am sharing with you this recipe today because I thought it would be great to serve on Mother’s Day for breakfast or brunch.  Have a make your own egg bake bar!  It’s fun and you can set it up all cute!  That way everyone gets what they like!

Well my Peeps, I think I blabbed long enough!  I think I’m going to do some sit-up and some arm exercises before bed.  I need to burn a little bit of this hamburger off!  🙂

Have a great day!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    Hey, 1100 calories in a day sounds like a pretty reasonable day to me! And it sounds like you deserved every bite! I think I deserve a nice egg bake like this one, it looks so delicious!

    Jennifer, This egg dish looks delicious. The ingredients sounds perfect with eggs. Have you ever cooked this in a 9″ pan or quiche pie plate? I’m wondering how the cooking time would differ in a larger pan.

      Thank you Joan! I haven’t made this one in a 9″ pie pan, but I have in the past with other recipes. I would say the cooking time would be about 40 – 45 minutes on 350 degrees.

Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterd Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterday taking pictures of flowers and I felt a shadow flying around me. I looked up and there a Monarch butterfly. 
🦋
I don’t see Monarchs very much, I was delighted when I saw this orange beauty flying around. It landed on a Zinnia before it took a rest on my Butterfly Bush. Isn’t it beautiful? It made my day. It’s the small things.
🦋
I highly recommend a Butterfly Bush in your garden. The flowers come in a range of colors from white, pink to purples. They do well in zones 5-9. The flowers smell amazing and bloom all season. They are also a great butterfly attractor and fairly easy to grow.
🦋
Do you get butterflies in your garden?

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors.

I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals.

I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.

This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle.
