Breakfast! What a great meal. I frickin' love breakfast!!
It's the best, and most important meal of the day, yet SO MANY OF US SKIP BREAKFAST!
I made myself the tastiest green eggs this morning, and wondered how many people could have done the same!
I use a pesto sauce and mix it into my scrambled eggs, and finish with a touch of cheese. Simple, easier than most breakfasts, and good for you!
I will share with you my pesto sauce, and my quick recipe:
PERFECTO PESTO:
1 Cup of FRESH Basil Leaves (I grow mine in the summer, this ingredient is imperative for pesto)
1-2 Cloves of FRESH Garlic, Smashed and Chopped ( the size is important if they are large cloves use one)
1/4 Cup of Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 Fresh grated Parmesan cheese
Handful of pine nuts roughly chopped
Salt & Pepper to Taste
Throw all of these ingredients in the food processor and blend up until it is smooth
This will yield about 1/2 cup of pesto - you can double this recipe if you plan on using on pasta!
EGGS:
2 Organic Eggs
Splash of Organic Milk
Pesto (to taste- recipe above)
Fresh Goat Cheese Crumbles for garnish
Whip up your eggs, and splash in some milk to make them fluffy! Add the pesto to the egg mixture and cook in a pan like you normally would cook scrambled eggs! When ready, serve with a few crumbles of goat cheese to give it a rich, creamy texture. If you REALLY love Basil, I suggest throwing a few whole leaves of basil into your egg mixure before cooking, they really have a nice finish, similar to spinach, but a much more robust flavor!
Have some sprouted grain toast on the side!! YUM!
