Annika's Dish

So this doesn't really have a name, but I got it from my friend Annika. Made it tonight for Owen and I. He never eats egg, but this was a sneaky way for me to get him to eat it, especially since he doesn't really eat meat and needs protein. It also doesn't really have exact measurements and is pretty flexible, so it makes it about perfect (and healthy) for a quick meal. Took me about 20-25 minutes from start to finish. The measurements are what I did tonight, and it made enough for about 3-4 people. Way more than I needed!

Egg Noodles, approx. 3 cups or so
Zucchini, 1 small or 1/2 large
Yellow Squash, 1 small or 1/2 large
Mushrooms, 1/2 carton pre-sliced baby portabellas
Onion, about a half
Garlic, minced
Tomato, 1 roma
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 package of block Feta, crumbled
Olive Oil, 2 Tbsp
Salt
Pepper
Cavender's seasoning

Bring salted water to a boil in a large pot.
Cut zucchini, squash, and tomatoes into small cubes, or slice thinly if you like. Dice onion. If using fresh garlic, you'll want to mince it now also.
Add noodles to boiling water.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Add zucchini, squash, and onion. Sautee 3-4 min. then add mushrooms and garlic. Sautee for another 3 minutes or so (it really depends on how done you like the vegetables). Add Salt, Pepper, and Cavender's to taste.
Drain noodles and add to skillet.
Add egg. Stir frequently until egg is done.
Add Feta cheese and tomato, and stir until hot through.
Serve immediately. Enjoy!

This is just the general idea and order of what I did tonight. You may have to make adjustments according to your tastes and preferences on ratios with regard to the noodles, vegetables, egg, and cheese.
It sure was great, and we both ate until we were stuffed!
