The Screaming Goat

Yes...you read that correctly. It's an actual restaraunt here in Austin. And it's good. Don't let the name hold you back, I assure you that I did not eat goat while there. It's close to downtown off of 10th & Lamar in an older house. A friend & I went there a couple of weeks ago. And they have the BEST queso and their chips are very different & yummy. And I can also vouch for the tilapia taco, but if you are more of a beef or chicken kind of person, they have that too! There nachos look great, someone next to us got them. Anyway..2 thumbs up from me!

Crustless Cheesy Quiche

Okay...this is my new favorite breakfast to have that is South Beach friendly & yummy!

8 eggs
Turkey Sausage (I bought the smoked turkey sausage and cut up about 1/3 of it into bite size pieces)*You could also use ham or canadian bacon.
6 fresh asparagus spears cut into 1/2" length
1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese
1/2 cup reduced fat cheese of your choice
1/4 cup finely chopped onions
1 Tbsp. dijon mustard
Salt & pepper to taste

Grease 9 inch pie plate. Mix all ingredients until well mixed. Bake for 40-45 minutes at 350 degrees.

**I would add a little bit more cheese as I wouldn't exactly classify it as cheesy. I also added some chopped fresh mushrooms...but you could also swap out the asparagus for other things if you wanted.

YUMMY & HEALTHY!!
