MORE ABOUT EGGS If you’re like me, as Easter approaches you smile at fond memories of decorating eggs for those old fashioned egg hunts, all the while thinking about doing the same thing for the little ones in your life. Fortunately we’re not limited to the old Paas egg kits anymore and there are many ways to both decorate eggs, and use them once the festivities end. Rather than go into a gazillion things you can do with eggs, following are some fun and informative links you may enjoy in preparation for the upcoming holiday. Blessings to all, Ros

CRUSTLESS ASPARAGUS QUICHE

If you are watching carbohydrates and calories, but want high protein, you really can’t do much better than this quiche.  You’ll be getting a lot of vitamins as well.  This delicious quiche is high in vitamins C, A, K, iron, and folate. Making it crustless cuts out a lot of carbs and calories. Using more egg whites than yolks cuts down on the cholesterol and fat, while still supplying 7 grams of protein per serving. Not too bad for just 72 calories a slice!

2 cups sliced asparagus 6 egg whites 2 whole eggs 1/3 cup diced onion 1/2 cup (low-fat) feta cheese, optional parmesan cheese 1/2 cup diced tomatoes 1/4 teaspoon black pepper Kosher or sea salt to taste
