Cat's Breakfast Salad

When I travel back home, I usually end up feeling completely food-overloaded. It's not my regular diet, the food is heavy, starchy, and I just end up feeling weird... 

My sister-in-law and I were standing in the kitchen on one such visit and she said "Breakfast Salad"

To which I said "huh?"

So came instruction in something that has become my favorite breakfast go-to.


It's so simple, a salad with an egg on top. Easy, done!  As usual, the devil's in the details.

After experimenting, I resolved that the heavier greens work better for me... collards, kale, spinach, arugula and so on.  That chop salad mix at Trader Joe's is a good one too, and easy to replicate from a farmshare box. 

My favorite mix so far is collards and spinach, with some sunflower seeds or pecans, tossed with a little bit of avocado oil and balsamic vinegar, topped with an egg over easy. 

This is good too... leftover veggies tossed with wilted collards
