Here’s a fast, workday, protein-rich breakfast using hard-boiled eggs I made over the weekend. It’s also a great idea to spend a few minutes on the weekend prepping some veggies so you can use them all week. This breakfast took me about 3 minutes to assemble. I toasted whole grain bread (I like Ezekial). While the toast was toasting, I chopped one egg and added 1 tablespoon of guacamole (instead of mayonnaise) and a few drops of hot sauce. Since I had the veggies already cleaned and chopped, I just had to assemble. Top the toast with lettuce, then egg salad, sliced radishes, tomatoes and a sprinkle of scallions (you can use whatever veggies you have on hand).
Nutrition Note: The blend of healthy, unsaturated fat from the guacamole along with protein from the egg and fiber from the whole grain bread makes for a perfectly balanced breakfast that will get you through til lunch.
Thanks for this inspiration Judy. Matt had used up all of the mayonnaise in our house for an April Fools prank and I was bummed yesterday because I had wanted some egg salad or deviled eggs. Didn’t have guacamole so I smashed some fresh avocado on the toast, topped with garlic powder and salt, sliced eggs and baby spinach. Yum!
