Another Lovely Box

I see some wonderful summer strawberries hiding under the Swiss chard.

Have you ever had a strawberry omelet? 

 

RECIPE OF THE WEEK

STRAWBERRY OMELET

2 cups of whole strawberries

1 Tablespoon of sugar

4 eggs, separated

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1 Tablespoon of lemon juice

1 Tablespoon of butter

Toss the strawberries with the sugar. Beat the egg whites until they stand in firm peaks.  Beat yolks and salt in another bowl until they are thick. Beat in the lemon juice.  Fold in the egg whites until now streaks of yellow show.  Melt the butter in a skillet.  Pour in eggs.  Cook, lifting the cooked portion around the edge so uncooked eggs flow underneath.  Cook until the mixture is set.  Remove to a serving plate.  Spoon 1/2 of the strawberries onto 1/2 of the omelet.  Fold the omelet over the berries.  Spoon the remaining berries on top.
