HEALTHY GREEN CHILI & POTATO GRATIN

Steps:

• In a large bowl toss together the potatoes, onions, green chilis, garlic, salt, pepper, thyme, flour, and cumin. Add pieces of the cream cheese, and stir until well incorporated.
• Fill a casserole dish (coated with non-stick spray) or several small ones with the potato mixture. Pour the milk over the mixture to evenly cover the potatoes.
• Mix together the panko crumbs and cheese.
• Top the potato gratin(s) with a sprinkle of the panko/cheese mixture. Cover with foil.
• Bake in a 375 degree oven for 1 hour. Uncover and bake for another 30 minutes, until gratin is bubbling and top is golden brown.
• I made these last week in small tins and made great left-overs to take camping. I replaced the green chilis for broccoli however in my son's portion.

Steps:

• Heat skillet over medium high heat, spray on cooking spray, and layer Potatoes. Season with Salt and Pepper. Cook until they start to brown. DO NOT BURN!
• Lower the Heat to Medium.
• Add the scallions, green chilis, canadian bacon, and parmiggiano cheese (use a potato peeler to make thin strips). Add a bit more salt and pepper to season to your taste. Cook for about 2-3 minutes.
• Add the canadian bacon.
• Drop the Cream Cheese in randomly across the pan by teaspoon full. Toss the mixture to incorporate all ingredients.
• Add Egg Substitute and Cheddar Cheese. Lower Heat to Medium Low. Cook for about 3-4 minutes while the egg begins to set on the bottom. Place the Pan in a 375 degree oven for about 10 more minutes until egg is fully set.
• Remove from the oven and serve.
• I would recommend serving with a cheddar cheese sauce, but we are trying to keep it healthy these days. Also, I'd love to try it with butter (instead of the non-stick cooking spray), real eggs, and full fat cheeses.
