Description
A nutritious Mediterranean Breakfast Bowl filled with grains, eggs, and fresh vegetables, perfect for brunch or busy mornings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2–3 Fresh Eggs
- ½ cup Quinoa or Farro
- 1 cup Fresh Spinach or Kale
- ½ cup Cherry Tomatoes
- 1 Avocado
- ¼ cup Feta Cheese
- ¼ cup Olives (Kalamata or green)
- Fresh Herbs (Parsley or Basil)
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
Instructions
- Cook Your Grains: In a saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add ½ cup of quinoa or farro, reduce the heat, and let it simmer until tender—about 15 minutes for quinoa and 25 minutes for farro. Drain if necessary.
- Sauté the Veggies: In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Throw in a handful of spinach and halved cherry tomatoes, sautéing until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften slightly—about 3-4 minutes.
- Prepare the Eggs: Move the sautéed veggies to one side of the skillet and crack 2-3 eggs into the other side, cooking them sunny-side up or scrambled as you prefer. Season with salt and pepper for taste.
- Assemble the Bowl: In a large bowl, layer your cooked grains as the base. Top with the sautéed veggies, eggs, sliced avocado, a sprinkle of feta cheese, and a handful of olives. Drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil and finish with fresh herbs.
- Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Mediterranean Breakfast Bowl fresh!
