Servings: 1
Calories: 500 kcal
Avocado toast with egg is an ideal way to start the day with a complete breakfast. Avocado is a fruit packed with nutritional benefits, including magnesium, potassium, and minerals that are perfect for maintaining a strong immune system and strengthening our muscles. Additionally, it’s rich in healthy fats that help keep cholesterol levels in check and provide energy to kick-start your day.
When paired with 100% whole-grain bread and an egg for a protein boost, this makes for a delicious and well-rounded breakfast.
Avocado Toast with Egg
Ingredients:
- 2 slices of whole-grain bread
- 1 large avocado
- A few drops of lemon juice
- 2 eggs
- Olive oil
- Salt
- Pepper
Instructions:
Toast the bread in a pan with a bit of oil or in a toaster. Cut the avocado open and mash the flesh until you get a smooth puree. Mix it with a bit of lemon juice and salt.
Spread the avocado mixture on the toasted bread and sprinkle with pepper.
Next, cook the eggs on a griddle with a bit of oil, covering the pan until the egg whites are set. Place the eggs on top of the avocado toast, season with salt and pepper, and serve.
Cups of fresh and creamy coconut kiwi with granola base
Coco lovers will find a delicious and nutritious breakfast recipe that will provide a lot of energy to start the day. The only thing you need to keep in mind is that you will need to let the coconut milk rest in the refrigerator overnight. You can even prepare it in advance if you plan to eat it daily.
Time: 75 minutes Ingredients (for 8 cups)
3 ripe kiwis 400ml coconut milk (with approximately 20% high-fat content) 250g rolled oats 80g almonds 80g hazelnuts 90g pitted dates 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 2 teaspoons coconut oil 2 tablespoons water
Preparation
Step 1. The day before, let the coconut milk rest. Place it in a wide-mouthed container in the refrigerator. Step 2. For the granola, add the coconut oil and water to a saucepan and bring to a boil. Step 3. Chop the nuts finely. Then, add the oats, cinnamon, and nuts. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, to prevent sticking to the bottom. Step 4. Spread the result on a paper towel and bake in a preheated oven at 160°C for 30 minutes, or until most of the liquid content has evaporated. Occasionally stir to prevent large clumps from forming. It’s important to obtain a fine granola. Step 5. When the color turns slightly toasted, remove it from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. You can prepare this step the day before. Step 6. Separate the floating fat from the water residue of the coconut milk that you left to rest in the refrigerator. Step 7. Place the mixture in the freezer until serving time. Use cups to alternate layers of granola, coconut cream, and natural kiwi. You can add dried coconut flakes on top for decoration.”
Microrowave Omelette
This omelette recipe is perfect for busy mornings when you don’t have time for a complicated recipe but want to start your day with a healthy and nutritious plate. It’s a microwave omelette that takes only a few seconds to make and can be adapted to your taste by adding fresh herbs or ham bits. It’s an ideal option if you’re looking for a low-calorie breakfast, as we add extra volume to the recipe using egg whites as the main ingredient.
Microrowave Omelette Ingredients
1 egg
2 egg whites
1 tomato
Chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon grated cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
Cut the tomato into small pieces and chop the fresh basil.
Beat the eggs with the egg whites until they become frothy. Then, mix in the tomato, chopped basil, grated cheese, pepper, and salt.
Pour the mixture into a microwave-safe dish. If it’s not silicone, lightly grease it with a little olive oil to make it easy to unmold.
Cover and cook in the microwave for 2-3 minutes, using medium power to avoid overcooking.
Apple and Corn Crumble
Apple crumble is a traditional English dessert made with fruit, flour, butter, and sugar. However, we can enjoy crumble in a healthier way thanks to this version with corn.
Time: 35 minutes Ingredients (for 8 people)
4 organic apples 150g cornmeal 100g sunflower oil 125g cane sugar 40g rolled oats 40g raisins Lemon zest 1 vanilla pod Ground cinnamon Sea salt
Preparation
Step 1: Wash and dry one of the apples and grate it coarsely. Then, add a few drops of lemon juice to prevent the apple from browning.
Step 2: Next, cut the vanilla pod lengthwise and carefully remove the seeds from its interior. Heat a pan over low heat with two tablespoons of sugar.
Step 3: Add one tablespoon of sunflower oil, a pinch of cinnamon, and the vanilla seeds. When the sugar starts to caramelize, add the grated apple and cook for 4-5 minutes.
Step 4: Peel and chop the remaining three apples and add them to the pan along with the lemon zest. Cook for another minute or two, then turn off the heat and reserve.
Step 5: Preheat the oven to 180°C in a large bowl, mix the cornmeal, the remaining sunflower oil, and the rolled oats until you get a homogeneous mixture.
Step 6: Place the cooked apple mixture in a baking dish and spread the dry mixture on top.
Step 7: Finally, bake for 30-40 minutes at 180°C, until the surface is golden brown.
