I'm so TIRED of people thinking that breakfasts are bland and boring, like have you seen what I've come up with? This is my Kale & Roasted Tomato Breakfast Bowl and she is quite delicious. I know, you're hearing kale and tomato and asking yourself how this dish can be delicious. Well, it's because of seasoning and pairing ingredients together well.
I was actually at the Harvard alumni reunion and overheard a man say, "forget the dessert, I'm going for another serving of that kale Caesar salad." Vegetables, grains, legumes, and fruits can all be enjoyable, you just have to know how to prep and cook them and that's why I'm here for you!
This is a fiber-packed, balanced breakfast that has you starting your day off on the right foot. You have protein from the eggs, fiber from the kale, tomato, and avocado, healthy fats from the avocado as well, and carbs from the bread.
This may be a bit time consuming to make on weekday if you don't work at home, so try making this on a Saturday or Sunday for yourself and a friend. You're going to love the flavors. Did I mention that the tomatoes are roasted with goat cheese on top... Let's get to it!
