One Dish Breakfast, @clean_eating_journal
Serves one:
- 1/8 cup onion, diced
- 1 1/2 cups veggies of your choice (I used diced bell peppers, zucchini, asparagus, and cherry tomatoes)
- 2 or 3 eggs
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat oven safe pan over medium heat (I use 3,5″ cast iron skillet). Add oil. Spread it around to cover the bottom of the pan. Add onions. Sauté until translucent. Add all the other veggies (except tomatoes) salt + pepper. Sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add eggs and halved cherry tomatoes. Remove from heat and place the skillet into the oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the egg whites set and become opaque. If you don’t like runny yolks, please cook for additional 3-5 minutes.
A Twist on Eggs Benedict, @wholefork
- A few slices of left over corned beef or other meat
- Handful of spring mix
- 2 poached eggs
- 4 egg yolks
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 cup avocado oil
- 3 more Tbsp lemon juice
- Salt
- Fresh herbs to taste
For the sauce: beat 4 egg yolks and 1 T lemon juice in a glass bowl, until it starts to thicken. Boil water in a small pot. Place bowl with yolks on top of the pot so the bowl isn’t touching the water. Slowly pour in the oil while beating the yolks. Add remaining lemon juice and salt to taste.
To poach the eggs: on stovetop, bring about 2 inches of water to a gentle boil in a pan. Turn heat off. When boil slows down carefully crack your eggs into the water. Cover with a lid and let sit for 4 minutes for a runny center. Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon. Layer everything together, starting with the spring mix. Then add meat, poached eggs, sauce, fresh herbs (like basil), salt and pepper to taste.
Prosciutto Egg Clouds, @homemadetoast
Per serving:
- 2 eggs, whites and yolks separated
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 2 strips of prosciutto
- 1 Tablespoon diced sun-dried tomatoes
- 1 Tablespoon finely-chopped basil
- 1 teaspoon finely-chopped chives
- Salt & pepper to taste
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, making sure to coat pan. Lay prosciutto in hot pan and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, until it begins to firm up slightly. Remove from pan and allow to cool. Chop crisped prosciutto into fine pieces. Place egg whites in a medium bowl and whip until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in prosciutto, sun-dried tomatoes, basil and chives. Spoon into two mounds on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and flatten slightly. Create a spoon-sized well in the middle of each, about 1/2 to 1-inch deep. Bake at 450-degrees for 3 minutes. Remove from oven and gently place a yolk into each well. Salt and pepper to taste. Then, return to oven and cook for 3-5 more minutes, until the yolk is slightly cooked.
