I don’t know about you, but the easiest way for me to start off my day on the wrong foot is to have no idea what I’m going to eat for breakfast. The hustle and bustle of the morning is enough – not having breakfast? That’s even worse. That’s why I’ve decided to share some of my favorite breakfast hacks that I use for my entire family.
Here’s what you’ll need:
-Arugula + Spinach Mix
-Avocado
-Cherry Tomatoes
(ANY veggies you have laying around or leftover will work)
-Oranges (any fruit will do)
-Bacon (Whole 30 approved bacon is Maverick Ranch)
-1 Egg (or two)
-Tessamae’s Lemon Garlic Dressing
(THIS IS THE BEST DRESSING ON THE PLANET!)
- Toss the arugula/spinach mix with dressing. (You can also use olive oil + any citrus + salt and pepper if you don’t have that particular dressing)
- Cook the bacon to your preference. I like to cook mine in the oven on low broil- crispy & easy clean up.
- Cut up your veggies and throw in the bowl. You can put ANYTHING you like in there. Mushrooms, sweet potato slices, peppers, onions…the more the merrier!
- Once the bacon is done (and drained), place it in the bowl and cook the eggs (see below).
- Enjoy!
Uncle Scott’s Jelly Eggs
- Boil water- enough to cover the egg(s)
- Once the water is at a rolling boil, carefully add 1 or 2 eggs with a spoon. Make sure you put the spoon in and let the egg roll out- otherwise it will *surprise* crack in the water.
- If you are cooking 1 egg, boil for 6 minutes and 30 seconds. If you are boiling 2 eggs, boil for 6 minutes and 30 seconds (YES the same amount of time for 1 or 2 eggs). Set your timer!
- Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and place them into an ice bath (water + ice cubes) for about 5 minutes.
Peel the eggs, rinse, cut ’em open and enjoy!
