Salmon Egg Foo Young

What to have for dinner in a short time that is budget friendly is a question often asked by many. This recipe here is one answer. It is not only friendly and easy to prepare but also is very healthy.  I use the salmon patty that is sold in Costco, but Walmart has it and is a little less pricey.  Eggs are always less expensive than meats or other healthy clean protein sources. The book, "Eat This Not That", shows the new revised guidelines on eggs and cholesterol consumption, and for most people without a concern for cholesterol, but they can enjoy eggs for their many healthy benefits. If we can have eggs seven days a week, the protein and amino acid in eggs will be good for our eyes, cardiovascular system, having healthy hair, and for the brain, etc. I always love eggs, and this recipe is very easy to prepare on a limited budget by adding a salmon patty to contribute to a long list of healthy benefits that comes with both eggs and salmon.

(Completed dish can be divided to serve 2)
Ingredients:
4 eggs
1 salmon patty
2 button mushrooms, diced
2 green onions, sliced
1 handful of bean sprouts
1/4 salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
Sauce ingredients:
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 tsp cornstarch
1 tbs soy sauce
1 tbs dry sherry
1 tsp molasses
1 garlic clove, minced

Directions:
Dice the salmon patty and mushrooms.
Lightly beat eggs with salt and pepper. Add diced salmon, mushrooms, and bean sprouts into the beaten eggs.
Combine the sauce ingredients and set aside.
Heat a non-stick frying pan and add 2 tbs of peanut oil.

 Swirl and spread oil over pan. Pour egg mixture into the pan and quickly stir until the mixture slightly solidifies.

Lightly flatten mixture to form a big pancake. If necessary, add a little more oil to prevent burning. Turn the heat down and flip the egg pancake to cook the other side.



  Pour the combined sauce ingredients over the egg pancake. Top with green onions and serve.
