Aside from the greek salads and fresh calamari, one of my favorite foods while traveling in Greece was actually a simple breakfast dish. A bowl of deliciously creamy and tart greek yogurt, topped with fresh fruit and a drizzle of honey. Nothing fancy or complicated but one of the most memorable dishes on my trip. I used pomegranate seeds in this recipe because they are in season and I love the little crunch that they add! Plus they are a nutritional powerhouse!
If it wasn’t breakfast time, I would just skip the eggs and make this as a satisfying snack. It is that good people! Initially I wasn’t all that sure how eggs and hummus would pair, but let me tell you, if you haven’t tried it yet, you are missing out.
Who doesn’t love a good bowl of oatmeal? The problem is that oatmeal can be very boring. This Mediterranean diet breakfast recipe takes your oatmeal to the next level with raspberries, healthy seeds, and honey. Eggs are a breakfast staple for almost any diet. Like oatmeal, they can get very boring quick!
In this case, it is onion, red peppers, and olives, but other varieties of peppers could also be added. It yields 6 servings. Directions: Preheat broiler. In a large broilerproof skillet cook onion and garlic in 2 tablespoons hot oil until onion is just tender. Meanwhile, in a bowl, beat together eggs and half-and-half. Stir in feta cheese, roasted sweet pepper, olives (if desired), basil, and black pepper. Pour egg mixture over onion mixture in skillet. Cook over medium heat. As mixture sets, run a spatula around the edge of the skillet, lifting egg mixture so uncooked portion flows underneath.
Spread it on whole wheat bread, sprinkle with pine nuts and you are set. Some add a touch of honey instead for some sweetness. Apart from tahini, you can make other types of “toast”. You can use pita bread (as I did above) and drizzle some olive oil and a bit of cheese.
Deka in Greek means ten, so it translates in to the 10 o’clock meal. A Greek classic egg recipe: scrambled eggs with tomatoes and feta. You’ll get a good amount of vegetables by adding plenty of tomatoes, accompany with some whole wheat bread and you have complete meal. Get the recipe here!
Yes I can actually. For Easter brunch, or another springtime weekend, or when you’re hosting friends one morning, or when you want breakfast for an entire week and don’t want to share with anyone else. 1. Spray a 8x11 casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside. 2. Add olive oil and butter to a large skillet over medium high heat. Once hot, add in the onion and saute for 2 minutes.
Just look at all those bright vibrant colors & yummy flavors. So making it a great addition to serve to guests or even the family for the upcoming Easter brunch. Do you guys usually do a big dinner on Easter or just kinda go for brunch? I’m pretty okay with either as long as I can make it ahead.
