    Mustard Greens and farm egg breakfast

    Photo

    Hello! Yes, after a power yoga workout and a trip to Green String, where I found the first of the season mustard greens, I had to eat some pronto. Croutoned (yes, it's a verb here) up some homemade bread, poured them hot over the greens, then fried up some farm eggs in good olive oil. Drizzled the lot with Meyer lemon juice and a good sprinkle of salt and pepper. The hot bread and eggs helped to wilt the greens just a bit, and the runny yolks covered the mess in all their goodness. Yum! I adore the kick of these greens- gets me fired up and ready to rock the day. A treat! Hope this inspires you to try some non-traditional breakfast. Thanks for reading and much love from kitchengretchen

    Kind of like the Salade Lyonnaise, sans bacon. Much better for you, and those greens clear out the arteries, that's for sure! Should have planted some this season! Remind me to look for my seeds>
    XOX,
