Well we didn't have this for dinner, but you could!


We had it for a 1 am snack. You can count on me for interesting combinations due to our distaste for grocery shopping. I frequently throw odds and ends together. Shon and I think it was a success today. I give you....

*drum roll*

Italian Scrambled Eggs with Crab Meat
Serves 2 hungry adults, could be stretched to 3.

1 small can crab meat (of course you can substitute imitation crab or chicken or turkey)
5 or 6 eggs
Small amount of water
Sun dried tomatoes in Italian herbs and olive oil (about 6)
2 squirts mustard (Dijon would be fantastic but all we had was French's yellow and it was good)
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Italian herb mix (Mr's Dash Italian is great)
2T Onion (I would have preferred green onions, all we had was dried onion and it was good.)
2 slices Muenster Cheese (That's what we had, swiss, jack, mozzerella would all be yummy.)

Put eggs in bowl add small amount of water and beat. Set aside.
Open and drain can of crab meat. Set aside.
Pull tomatoes out of jar and drain on a paper towel. Dice them. Set aside.
Put some of the oil from the tomato jar in the pan. Use pastry brush to coat whole pan with thin layer of oil and herbs.
Salt and pepper the eggs, add some Italian herbs and stir. Add onion to eggs. Put eggs in hot pan. Have slices of cheese ready to top hot eggs so they melt nicely. Add in the crab and tomatoes and stir up the eggs. When the eggs are almost done squirt in a bit of mustard and stir again. Finish cooking. Plate eggs and top with cheese.
