Salad For Breakfast

I've been reading and watching lots of YouTube videos during  our COVID quarantine time. In particular, those on the Mediterranean Diet and life in The Blue Zones. If you're not familiar with these and are interested in eating in a healthier way that promotes longevity, please check them out.

Yes, this really was breakfast today here at Mi Casa. If, like me, you practically gain weight just looking at waffles, pancakes and packaged cereal, you're probably familiar with soup, leftover meatloaf and vegetables, chicken chili, etc. as natural choices for breakfast. This went together quickly. I drizzled it with my Lemon-Olive Oil Dressing * 

  • 1 quick-blanched peeled tomato
  • 1 handful baby kale or arugula
  • 3/4c garbanzo beans
  • 3 big mushrooms
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 1 12 minute egg

Tear, slice, chop then arrange or toss together in a bowl, dress, add a little more fresh cracked black pepper and some coarse Celtic sea salt. I skipped coffee this morning and had this with lemon water, but a big steamy mug of tea is sounding really good right now! Be creative. . .have fun with your cooking! . . . Lin
