breakfast rut.

i'm in a major breakfast rut. i've had the exact same breakfast for 3 weeks solid. i'm usually one to mix it up, cereal one day, eggs the next, french toast even, smoothies, oatmeal, rarely the same breakfast two days in a row. but not lately. nope. i'm boring old vanilla apparently. i eat the same thing everyday. i've had whole wheat toast with natural peanut butter and banana slices for 21 days. and you know what? i'm still not sick of it. in fact, its become like crack, i wake up craving it. and while its delicious and nutritious, i'm scared that my breakfast habits are becoming too boring. or maybe i need to get over myself? hmmmm. likely so. but still, i feel the need to push it.

so for brunch last week (hey i'm trying here), i pulled out some savory ingredients. okay truth time: i was out of bananas. and well i just couldn't leave my pb alone with no naners. alright, enough of personifying food, peanut butter does not have feelings, it wouldn't have been lonely for the naners. it's me who would have been depressed about it since i'm 5 years old. i would have had just pb on my toast and whined about it while nelson eye rolled  me in silence.

alright, so since i was starting the meal off depressed, i had to add some avocado. did you know that avocados can basically make any blue/sad/down/depressing moment and make it all wash away? well they can. avocados are that powerful. they are so powerful in fact that i had them every day during our california trip. hmmm, now i'm thinking maybe i have food addiction problems?

so i used these ingredients to pull myself from the pit of despair. whole wheat toast. raw milk extra sharp chedda. avocado. fire-roasted red tomatoes. scramby egg.

this is pretty basic. add a little cream to your egg with the usual suspects: salt, pepper, red pepper flake and herbs de provence. scramble lightly, leaving the egg creamy and soft. eggs really are the perfect food.

toast whole wheat. slather with about 1/3 avocado. top with a couple of heaping tablespoons of fire-roasted tomatoes, zee perfect egg and a generous grating of chedda.

so yeah, this was great. i could have easily eaten another.
but i still had pb, nana ww toast this morning.
the delicious rut breakfast continues.
