- Yields:
-
1 strata
- Serves:
- 1
ingredients
- 1 slice low-calorie bread
- 1 egg whites or 1 egg
- 1 slice tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon black beans (cooked or canned)
- 1⁄4 cup sliced mushrooms (canned or fresh)
- 1 slice onion
- 1 slice jalapeno pepper
- salt
- chili pepper
- oregano
directions
- Dice the tomato, onion, jalapeno, and mushroom. Mix with black beans and add spices to taste.
- Put into individual microwave bowl and cook on high for 45 seconds.
- Beat egg white until frothy. Tastes better I think with the whole egg but healthier with just egg white. Pour evenly over the mixture in the bowl.
- Toast the bread. Cut it into cubes and make it the top layer in the strata. Here I also like to drizzle some smart buds butter spread on top but you can either add your favorite sauce or leave as is.
- Microwave on high for 1 minute. Check. Microwave again until the egg is completely set.

I am originally from Moscow, Russia but I currently live in Clemson, SC and attend Clemson University. If I was not majoring in microbiology i'd be cooking all the time. I LOVE cooking but I don't think I'd ever want to go to culinary school because I treat recipes as "guidelines" versus actual instructions.
