7 Dinner Recipes Using Eggs

Did you know that May is National Egg Month?

I thought it would be fun to share one of my favorite recipes that showcases eggs and few others from some blogging friends and media sources. Eggs are not only an inexpensive source of protein, they are also great sources of vitamin B2, selenium, vitamin D, B6, B12 and minerals such as zinc, iron and copper. So why not plan some meals with eggs as your main course.

Egg Tortilla with Spinach and Manchego Cheese (below)

Last but not least, this recipe is a family staple of ours. It can be made in one skillet, or dress it up for company and make it in a casserole dish. Plus, there are tons of variations that make using up what you have on hand easy.

Here's the basic recipe, but don't be afraid to mix it up. I've made it with peas, ham and white cheddar too.
