August 25th, 2008 - Rethinking breakfast
I’ve been getting frustrated the last week or so that I don’t have enough meals in the day to eat all the fresh veggie meals I want and like. Some of our favorites are salsa (I’ve made two so far) and chips, tomato cheese sandwiches (also adored by MJ), pesto and pasta, and salad. Plus I finally got another yogurt sourdough starter going and love the bread from that. There’s tons of zucchini so it’s the perfect time for zucchini bread.
Over the weekend, it finally occurred to me to rethink breakfast. I ALWAYS have bread (toast or fruit bread) or granola, day in and day out all year ’round. Why not have what’s usually lunch or dinner for breakfast? I can have bread–even though it’s great right now as well–any time of year. I can’t have fresh veggies the rest of the year! So for the last two days, I’ve had salsa and chips for breakfast. I may have a salad another day so I can have something else for lunch.
I just got farm fresh, free range eggs at the farmer’s market, so I might make a salsa scrambled eggs for another breakfast.
