Breakfast of champions

I recently invited my friends over breakfast and here is what I whipped up! A breakfast high in protein is essential to rejuvenate all your cells after "fasting" all night. Eggs are natures perfect food, being a complete protein and is a great way to start the day. Breakfast should always include a high quality protein and include nourishing fats and a vegetable source.Always choose organic or biodynamic free range eggs.

Spanish baked eggs

Ingredients

1 tsp olive oil
2 red onions
1 red chillies
I garlic clove
1 yellow capsicum
Bunch of coriander
Punnet of cherry tomatoes
5 eggs




Method


Heat the oil in a frying pan, then soften the onions, chilli, garlic and coriander stalks for 5 mins until soft. Stir in the tomatoes, then bubble for 8-10 mins until thick.


Make 5 dips in the sause then crack the eggs into each one. Cook on a low heat for 10 mins until the eggs are done the way you like it.


Mushrooms are a valuable source of dietary fiber and contain high levels of B vitamins. They also contain Iron, zinc and magnesium.


To cook put onions and mushrooms in a small pot and sauté until golden brown. Add water and  pepper, do not salt till the end thats when they go soggy and black.

Sourdough toast... YUM!

Avocado are rich in vitamin C and are rich in saturated fat due to their mono and polyunsaturated fat content. They contain high levels of antioxidants and are perfect for your skin.


Sprinkle with some olive and Himalayan sea salt and pepper to serve.


And there you have it a perfect breakfast packed with nutrients and essential fats.And excellent and healthy way to start your day.
