Angie’s Scrambled Egg Pockets

Posted By Angie On May 3, 2012 @ 5:30 pm In Breakfast,Eggs,Recipes | 8 Comments

I tore some of the pita away to show you the egg mixture.

Breakfast for dinner serves a wonderful dual purpose. It’s cheaper than normal dinners and kids love the change. The scrambled egg pockets have a unique twist to traditional eggs and the ingredients are healthy, so I feel good giving it to my family for dinner. I did learn the hard way to really look at which ingredients I buy. This calls for plain greek yogurt, and the first time I bought & used vanilla yogurt. Big mistake! LOL. I got it right the 2nd time and it made a world of difference. Everybody was happy and I had 7 full tummies after dinner. This recipe is also very adaptable for different bread types and ingredients added to the eggs. Change it up!

Some of the things I did to make this meal even more frugal, is to use coupons, buy pitas on the 40% rack of breads at Wal-mart, and bought 2 individual yogurts instead of a tub.
