Hi! My name is Brittany Hinton. I work as an outpatient and inpatient dietitian at Holy Cross Hospital. I first became a lacto-ovo vegetarian (eggs/milk, no meat) when I began college. Between school, work and running cross country I needed a quick recipe as well as a cheap source of protein. This recipe was one of the first recipes I started making when I became a vegetarian. Spread this tasty mixture between two slices of whole wheat bread to create healthy meal.
