EGG WHITE WRAPS WITH SAUTÉED VEGGIES

In this blog post I'll give you a pretty healthy recipe, gluten free, sodium free, and best of all it will be about 60 percent vegetarian, the only animal product is the egg whites we'll utilize. To remove the yoke in the egg, just crack the eggs, and use both shells to sift the whites into a bowl.








EGG WHITE WRAPS WITH SAUTÉED VEGGIES 

3 egg whites
1 tbsp. vegetable oil and 4 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped green beans
1/2 cup chopped black olives
1/4 chopped bell peppers
1/2 cup diced tofu
Spike
Dijon mustard
Vegenaise
Sea salt and pepper to taste

1. Heat up nonstick pan with vegetable oil 1 tbsp. over medium high heat, cook the egg white until firm on one side, flip and cook the other side until firm, remove from heat on a plate.

2. Heat up same pan with 4 tbsp. of oil, sautee the mushrooms, green beans, black olives, bell peppers, and tofu until heated through. Remove pan from heat.

3. Season to taste with Spike, Dijon mustard, Vegenaise, while pan is still warm, season with salt and pepper, use salt very sparingly.

Note: Once the egg whites cool, it is still pliable, it holds together very well, you can even use it like a taco shell. Cooking the mustard and Vegenaise in a warm pan is alright it will not totally break. Spike is found in most natural food stores it comes in different flavors, it is a bottled seasoning with herbs and spices and no sodium like Mrs. Dash.

Vegenaise is a vegan mayonnaise made from Follow Your Heart, it is animal free, no cholesterol.

Dijon mustard gives the veggies a little flavor and some kick.

Trying to stay away from heavy, salty cooked meats is important for good health. Not totally eliminating meats, but slowly eating less of it will make you feel better. Lots of proteins from meats can be hazardous, eat more vegetables and fruits.

Stay away from bags of chips that is made from those companies that stock up your local gas and go food mart, or the convenience stores. If you want snacks, purchase a small dehydrator and make your own vegetable or fruit chips, those market chips are filled with bad sodium based additives that is not good for the body, and the artificial food colorings have been known to give people allergies, and cancers.

Eat healthy, be healthy, be positive- without good health I don't care how much money you got, you'll be sick and then what? Look around you the next time you're out in public, look at the people who are overweight, and struggling to walk from their car to the store, and when you run into them at the food court they are mauling a huge sandwich filled with greasy pork, and greasy fries, with a chocolate sundae chaser! Not good.

So today, be healthy, instead of a bag of unhealthy chips, eat an apple instead, an organic one would be best. Drink water instead of a soda, if you want a soda, just drink half the can and save the rest, the more you cut back on the bad stuff you'll realize that you don't need the bad stuff.
