You know the story.Eggs are expensive right now, so it’s likely youre not eating as many lately.
Eggs are my favorite food and I too have curbed my intake.
Surprisingly, Im actually feeling grateful for this egg reset.
There are many delicious breakfast options that dont require eggs, and Ive been neglecting them.
Many of these recipes are also good with eggs, tooso add an egg if your budget allows.
And then I made it three days in a row because it was so good.
When times are good again, add an egg to this savory concoction.
A hummus plate
Who said you cant have beans for breakfast?
When you have time for pancakes, makethese feta honey pancakes.
Use a complete pancake boxed mix (the just-add-water pop in).
Pour the batter into the pan, tuck a slice of salty feta cheese on top.
When you flip it, youll griddle the cheese on the other side.
Dumpling soup
Dont count out soup for breakfast.
Paired with a cup of hot chicken broth and youll feel properly full as you leave the house.
I usually buy a bag of Trader Joes frozen pork gyoza.
Bring it to a boil for eight to 10 minutes to cook the dumplings through and serve hot.
Its one of my favorite breakfast soups to make when Im feeling under the weather.
Tofu scramble
If you havent made a tofu scramble yet, it’s time.
Make-ahead quinoa
Quinoa is a wee round grain that has plenty tooffer nutritionally.
I treat it a bit like oatmealas in, Ill add a bunch of other fun stuff to it.
Unlike oatmeal, pasta, or rice, quinoa doesnt get chalky and hard when it cools down.
(Or, at least, the pieces are so small any texture shift is largely undetectable.)
Heat it up in the microwave for 45 seconds or eat it cold.
A tasty, fast, and nutritious breakfast semi-prepped for your week.
Breakfast sandwich
Who can deny the speed and simplicity of a sandwich?
(My 70-year-old step-father is newly obsessed with them.)
If white bread and Jif isnt your vibe, then elevate it.
Use alternative butters, like sunflower, almond, or cashew.
Switch out the squidgy bread for sourdough, rye, or thick buttered brioche slices.
Add some much-needed texture with toasted chopped walnuts sprinkled inside.
Instead of jelly, use a mixture of dried fruits, sliced bananas, apples, or honey.
