I had to post about my breakfast this morning! had to. so good. When I had my sister in law take a photo of this with her phone, i didn't know how good this would turn out. If you like the ingredients...make it. today.
This morning in an effort to actually eat breakfast and lunch today that does not involve a package of pho or fast food I threw a bunch of ingredients in a bag and headed out. Two eggs, arugula, pita, feta etc.
And this is what I came up with:
These were nice looking pitas at the store. Unlike the usual pale, grainy and bitter tasting ones these were brown, chewy and flavorful. I preheated the oven to 400 degrees and then cut my pita in half. Next I drizzled with olive oil, sprinkled with organic feta, raw cheddar, garlic flakes (lots of those) and dried basil. Placed in the oven for about 5-6 minutes and started cooking up two local eggs in the skillet.
Once the pitas were done I topped each with an egg, arugula and a few cherry tomatoes. This was so good! And fulfilled a lot of what I wanted this morning: protein, filling, nourishing, and delicious.
I wish I liked arugula! It’s one of the few foods I really do not enjoy–just to bitter for my taste
But your breakfast looks lovely: colorful and tasty!
Yummmm. This makes me oatmeal look like crap!
Lara, If you don’t like the arugula, substitute baby spinach instead.
One of my favorite breakfasts is two soft boiled eggs on toasted whole grain bread with chopped cherry tomatoes and either spinach, parsley or cilantro.
That looks yummy! What brand were the pita’s you used?
I love tomatoes, and I mean love and they just happen to be very very good for your health.
Its making my mouth water just looking at it!
That actually really looks tasty. I’m always looking for new ways to diet and add some real taste to my diet. I hate having the same things over and over again.
Thanks for the photo and ideas.
I waited until I was 70 to decide I needed to get serious about eating healthy. My blood sugar was so high I was afraid to check it, I couldn’t bend over to put on socks and the least exercise left me panting for breath. Eleven months later I’m down 65 lbs, my insulin has gone from 40 units/day to 6 units/day. Love some of your meal suggestions. Like you, have found healthy can taste good. Keep up the good work.
