Healthy Greek Frittata!


We have been making this healthy Greek Frittata. It's funny. I have a bad heart and the wife has the sugar but our cholesterol is fine. So we enjoy frittatas. This one is made with onion, black olives, fresh tomato, seven whole eggs, three egg whites and topped with feta cheese. After sautéing the onion till translucent throw in the cut up fresh tomato and black olives. Then mix in the eggs and bake for twenty minutes. Add the feta at the end. Very tasty.

Eggcellent!

What's the difference between frittata and titus quiche?

ndspinelli said...

Real men eat frittata. That's the difference.

Evi L. Bloggerlady said...

I have a feeling Titus eats bowls of unsqueaky cheese curds and Hormel chili, alone, in front of his computer, trying to be fabulous.

Weighing in @ 250!

Trooper York said...

Actually at 262 as of today.

I lost 41 pounds so far.

I haven't weighed 250 since I was in High School.

blake said...

Wow. That's not too fast, is it?

Bodies don't tend to like the sudden weight changes.

Cody Jarrett said...

I think he's including the 4-5 gallons worth of water they flushed out of him though, that accounted for 30 odd pounds right there.

rcocean said...

A lot of rapid weight loss at the start is just water. Plus if you're over 250 you can probably lose 1 lbs a day without much problem.

rcocean said...

I thought there was a strong connection between heart problems and cholesterol.

Trooper York said...

I know what you mean rc but I seem to be opposite guy. Usually it is cholesterol problems and high blood pressure. I have good cholesterol and really low blood pressure. How I got this fucked up is anybody's guess.

Trooper York said...

Cody is right. About 25-30 is just water. I am losing about a pound a day on the Bridge over the River Kwai diet that my daughter put me on when she came up from Florida.

If I see William Holden I am going to shoot the fucker.

ndspinelli said...

Troop, Way to go. It's a marathon, not a sprint.

The "250" was a response to Evi's comment about Titus. With all his thin obsession and self loathing, can't you see him being 5'4" 250?

Michael Haz said...

Troop - there's a book in what you're doing. Seriously. Self-published, electronic book. You are a good writer, you could do this.

The Dude said...

Too late on the William Holden thing - he got black out drunk, fell over, hit his head on the coffee table and bled to death.

But he did schtoink Natalie Wood, so there is that.

Let us know when you get under 200 - that will be a worthwhile milestone.

Until then, shut up and get back to walking.

"Pissed Off: The True Story of My Weight Loss"

It works.

"Pissed Off: The True Story of My Weight Loss"

I've got another title:

"Shooting William Holden's Corpse: Adventures in Weight Loss"

Cody Jarrett said...

I like that, IP. Genius.

Really, I mean it. I'm not being an ass.

I figured I'd better make sure and point it out. Because Crack Emcee, that's why.


Did William Holden really do Natalie Wood? I missed that one I guess. I thought Holden was a closet queen?

Just looked at his wikipedia page. Guess I was wrong. If he was, he had really good taste in beards. Stef Powers. Oy.

My mom is visiting right now and I'm gaining a pound a day. I'm usually in the mid 190s, but I've been as high as 236, and I'm always heaviest when there are women in the house. My diet secret is I can't cook.

Icepick said...

All this talk about William Holden making anyone else think of "I Dream of Jeannie"?

Cody Jarrett said...

All this talk about William Holden making anyone else think of "I Dream of Jeannie"?

no, she wasn't a whore.

Icepick said...

LOL, not exactly the answer I was looking for! But an answer nevertheless!

Evi L. Bloggerlady said...

Bridge on the River Kwai diet?

I do not remember the food in that film, but Bill Holden was banging those Thai porter girls out in the jungle.

I would not recommend that. That will get you shot by Lisa. Or she will just crack you over the head with a pan and stage it to look like you hit the night stand like Bill Holden. And no one would blame her for doing so.

And ndspinelli, I got the reference of Titus at 250.

And since Chick thinks Titus is out there lurking: Yeah Titus, we know how fabulous you are. We also notice how you dodged any actual meeting with ol dirty EBL.

Evi L. Bloggerlady said...

Cody, those Thai girls in Bridge on the River Kwai were not bar girls, they were porter girls.

Evi L. Bloggerlady said...

You will feel better when the weight is off Troop. How tall are you anyway?

Trooper York said...

I am about six feet two. When I get under about 250 I get really skinny. I am pretty skinny right now in fact.

Trooper York said...

William Holden used to bang Lucille Ball when she was a whore before she became famous.

That's why it was vastly amusing to see him on "I Love Lucy."

The Dude said...

She got some 'splainin' to do.

ndspinelli said...

Titus dodged a meeting w/ Trooper also I believe. When Trooper went to the wedding in Boston.

Trooper York said...

Most people are afraid to meet in real life Nick.

Titus would never have shown up.

Evi L. Bloggerlady said...

200 and six two is pretty darn good. You want to lose the gut weight and not lose any more muscle (I am sure you lost a bit over the last few weeks).

Evi L. Bloggerlady said...

Having Bill Holden on I Love Lucy, That was Lucy getting some payback on Desi.
