Quick and Easy Breakfast

I will always tell people who are changing their nutrition profiles to start with one meal a day if they are hesitant or not completely committed.  Start with breakfast and pay attention to how you feel after.  This is usually enough to get people to make more permanent changes.

As fun as cooking healthy can be, we don't always have more than a few minutes.  Meet chicken sausage.  This brand is at CostCo, very affordable.. and minimal ingredients with minimal processing.  Heat this up with or without a few eggs, add some avocado and you have a good start to face the day!

Staple breakfast that takes less than 5 minutes!

Bacon & Spinach Medley

Bacon is a staple at my house, it just makes everything taste better!  I came up with this a few weeks ago as I was trying to get rid of a few things in my fridge. Bacon grease makes a great substitute for cooking with olive or coconut oil. I'm sure this could be altered a few different ways with different veggies.

Bacon & Spinach Medley

8 slices bacon
1 cup sliced mushrooms
4 cups raw spinach
1-2 eggs

Cook bacon in pan and remove.  Use bacon grease to cook mushrooms until they have absorbed most of the grease and are soft to the touch.  Add raw spinach and cook until wilted.  You can use kitchen shears to cut bacon into smaller pieces and then add back to mixture.  I chose to cook a couple of over-medium eggs and serve it on top of this spinach medley... delish!
