Artichoke Souffle

A good place to start is always breakfast. It's the beginning of the day, you haven't had anything to eat or drink for (hopefully) 8 hours, and you should be starving. If you aren't hungry, it could be that you ate a large dinner too late or you woke up and ate. Enough of the lecture, here's something to start your day. As an added benefit, you should be able to eat off of this for the next few days-meal plan!

Remember, the following food should be organic!! 

3 eggs (free-range, grain-fed, non-GMO)

3 egg whites (free-range, grain-fed, non-GMO)

4 oz. grated cheese (asiago, parmesan or romano)

1/4 cup cottage cheese 

4 oz. quartered artichoke hearts 

A few pinches of sea salt

1. Prep a medium frying pan (make sure it has a metal handle, not plastic) and add a teaspoon of your choice: oil, butter, or bacon fat. Set burner to medium.
2. Set the oven to broil.
3. Whisk the eggs, egg whites, grated cheese, and cottage cheese together in a large bowl.
4. Transfer egg mixture to the heated pan.
5. Add the quartered artichokes. Sprinkle a few pinches of salt.
6. Allow eggs to set on the bottom. It will brown if you lift up the edges.
7. Transfer the pan to the oven and allow the top to set-top will be golden brown. Will take 2-3 minutes. It should be firm set all the way through-no jiggling when you shake the pan.
8. Garnish with a little more cheese if desired.

Cut into quarters and eat with some fruit-whatever is in season will taste the best!
Bon Appetit!!
