I've been looking for egg sandwiches and have seen several in the grocery stores using bagels, pita, wraps, pancakes, waffles, English muffins, quiche and crossants. I got to thinking about frittata's, bread pudding, omelets and other egg dishes.
In one of my cooking magazines I saw the mountain high yogurt baked french toast recipe. It was spectacular... I would add a little citrus rind next time... http://www.mountainhighyoghurt.com/recipes/baked_french_toast2.htm as it reminds me of crepe Suzzette....sort of. I didn't think the baked french toast needed extra syrup or yogurt. I also put half the baked french toast cubes in muffin tins. Yum!
I'm trying a new dish today, based on one in Betty Crocker online... using 1.5 cups brown rice, about 3 T of olive oil, four eggs, 4 strips of nitrate free turkey bacon, 1 cup cottage cheeese and 5 slices of Havarti cheese. It smells good.
I'll let you know!

Easy to Digest Food
Check out these two websites, recommended by RD A http://www.buzzle.com/articles/foods-easy-to-digest.html
Each person is different, that's why one goes to dietitians ! I guess the human body is tricky and is always in a state of flux. One day something works, another day it doesn't. That makes it really tough on engineers who think in black in white.

Smoothie Resources
I bought a yogurt maker http://www.amazon.com/Cuisipro-Donvier-Electronic-Yogurt-Maker/dp/B0000DE4TY/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1307028201&sr=8-4 Warm up milk and cool it then add active yogurt, pour in to jars and 10 hours later, viola... yogurt. And I got a yogurt cheese maker http://www.kingarthurflour.com/shop/items/greek-yogurt/cheese-maker. Its wonderful, almost like cream cheese! The recipe said not to use ultra high pasteurized milk, but it works fine. Only problem is the organic milk from Costco is 1% so I should add cream or half and half to bring up the calories.
High Pasteurized half and Half works great!
Now I wonder what is easier to digest... skim probably, with whole being the worst?
I now use 4 cups of whole milk, and two cups of half and half. My yogurt is so good. I am now trying to figure out if buying whole milk and heavy cream might be cheaper? Then there is the whole milk yogurts and greek yogurt. The greek yogurt is higher in protein.
Maybe I could add powdered milk to increase the protein? Don't know how they do it. It is harder to digest if I put Greek yogurt in his morning smoothie!
