Breakfast Poached Eggs with Avocado and Smoked Salmon

Breakfast Poached Eggs with 

Avocado and Smoked Salmon

The first time I tried poached eggs was this past summer when I visited 

my family in Canada. I always wanted to try making them, but it seemed

like it would turn into a kitchen disaster. Well, it did... my first attempt wasted 1/2 dozen eggs.

I'm not sure if it was because the eggs were of poor quality, or maybe I just didn't know what I was doing! Anyways, in my instructions I tried to be as clear as possible when explaining how to make these wonders. I absolutely love poached eggs now, and the avocado and salmon combination is just DELICIOUS. Who knew such a meal can be so satisfying and healthy?

What I Learned From My Mistakes When Making Poached Eggs ! ! ! MUST- READ ! ! !

1. Buy high-quality eggs.
2. The eggs should be fresh. 
3. Do NOT add salt to the boiling water.
4. Vinegar helps shape the egg, add a teaspoon to the water.
5. Boil the water first, but do NOT place the egg directly into boiling water.
6. The water must be hot, not boiling. 
7. Stir the water as quickly as possible for the egg to spin and form its shape.
8. Patience and experience will come a long way. 
9. Do not overcook poached eggs. This is why we have another method for hard-boiled eggs.

Ingredients-

1. Smoked Salmon Slices
2. 2 Eggs
3. 1/2 Avocado
4. 1 tsp. Vinegar
5. Salt
6. Pepper
7. 1/2 tsp. Lemon Juice
8. Chopped Chives
9. Whole-Wheat Bread/Toast

Instructions- 

1. Prepare salmon slices.
2. Cut lengthwise through the entire avocado around the pit.
3. Twist avocado to receive halves. Remove pit.
4. Take one half of the avocado, and create slices lengthwise without cutting through the skin.
5. Remove thin slices and place on plate. Spread lemon juice on avocado to prevent browning.
6. Boil water in a small pot. Do NOT add salt. Add 1 teaspoon of vinegar.
7. When the water boils, quickly remove it from the heat source and spin the water vigorously.
8. Crack open one egg onto a plate and while the water is spinning, add the egg to the hot water.
9. Carefully spin the water and place the pot back onto the heat. Lower the heat.
10. The egg-white will wrap itself around the yolk.  Cook for about two minutes and remove gently.
11. Repeat the above steps for the second egg, beginners should only try to cook one egg at a time.
12. Place salmon slices onto a piece of bread, then add the egg. Decorate with avocado.
13. Season eggs with salt and pepper to taste.
14. Slice fresh chives and sprinkle over plate. Serve.

Enjoy! 

Salmon and Eggs for Breakfast

Scrambled Eggs with Salmon

Whenever I think of the best possible breakfast,

eggs always come to mind. Omlete, scrambled, hard-boiled,

or even sunny side up, eggs are so universal we can make everything and anything with them.

If it helps, I even read an article online that eggs contribute to weight loss.

In a study, people who consumed eggs frequently were significantly thinner than people

who did not include eggs in their diet. Anyways, I just wanted to say that there will be many

egg recipes on my blog, simply because they are the best way to start your day! :)

Ingredients-

1. 3 Eggs

2. 1 Large Slice of Smoked Salmon

3. 4-5 Cherry Tomatoes 

4. 1 Small Onion

5. Chives (1 handful and 2 stems for decoration)

6. Salt  
7. Pepper
 

  

Instructions-

1. Finely chop onion and chives. Rinse tomatoes and set aside.

2. Whisk three eggs and add pepper. Whisk to combine. Do not add salt.

3. Preheat non-stick skillet and add chopped onion.

4. Stir for about one minute and add eggs. The heat should be on high.

5. Let eggs settle. In the meantime, cut one large smoked salmon slice into smaller pieces.

6. Add salmon to eggs and stir continuously. 

7. Sprinkle salt to taste. Add more pepper if necessary.

8. Add chopped chives and stir.

9. Cook eggs until they reach desired consistency. Dry scrambled eggs require more time on lower heat.

10. Serve when hot and decorate with chive stems. Place tomatoes around eggs.

Meatless Sunday Breakfast

Pizza Omelet

Good morning!
It's Sunday, and now is the perfect time to make

a classic egg breakfast, with a small twist.

I did not include meat or cheese in this recipe.

It is a healthier combination with tasty vegetables.

I think this is great for kids, so wake up the family and make a nice breakfast together:)

 

Ingredients-  Prep Time ~20mins

1. 3 eggs (4 small slices for 1 hungry person, 2 eggs per 1 adult is usually the way I measure it)

2. Red Bell Pepper (1 handful, finely chopped)

3. 1/2 Large Onion (finely chopped)

4. 1-2 Plum Tomatoes (sliced)

5. 1-2 Marinated Green Olives (sliced)

6. 1-2 Marinated Black Olives (sliced)

7. Fresh Chives 

8. Salt

9. Pepper 

10. Oil

11. Ketchup (optional)

 

Instructions-

1. Prepare vegetables and tomatoes. 

2. Heat a non-stick pan with a small splash of oil.

3. Crack open three eggs, and whisk forcefully in a bowl. Do not add salt to the eggs!

4. Add chopped onions and red bell pepper pieces onto the hot pan. Continiously mix to avoid burning.

5. When a golden color is achieved, add the eggs.

6. Let the eggs settle and cook for about two minutes. You may now add salt and pepper to taste.

7. With a spatula, make sure the eggs cook evenly by moving contents from the bottom to the top, starting from the middle. 

*If you are skilled, you may flip the omelet onto the other side.

8. When the top side is still undercooked, start adding olive and tomato slices.

9. Remember, keep an eye on the heat. Check the underside of the omelet to make sure it is not burned.

10. When the omelet is ready, it should move freely on the pan when you shake it around.

11. Add chopped chives and serve by cutting into slices, you may also top it off with some ketchup.
