Servings: 1
Ingredients:
2 eggs
1 tbsp olive oil
2 strips of side bacon
1/4 avocado
2 big handfuls spinach
1/2 cup mushrooms (sliced)
1 tsp garlic (minced)
1/2 cup roasted tomato salsa (recipe below)

Roasted Tomato Salsa Ingredients:
6 ripe vine tomatoes
1 small yellow onion (cut into large pieces)
Juice from 1 lime
2 cloves garlic (with peel on)
1 tsp sea salt
1 jalapeno pepper (seeded)
Directions:
Turn on your oven’s broiler and place whole tomatoes, garlic cloves, seeded jalapeño, and large chunks of onion on a baking sheet
Place in the oven and broil for about 6-8 minutes (until the outside begins to show spots of brown)
Carefully remove from heat and place in a blender or food processor along with lime & sea salt.
This step is up to you! Only blend long enough to get the consistency you prefer
Serve with your breakfast and store the rest in a sealed container in your fridge
Refried Beans (4 servings):
1 large can black beans (rinsed and drained)
2 tbsp olive oil
1-2 tsp chipotle powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 cup yellow onion (chopped)
Juice from 1/2 lime
2-3 tbsp water
Sea Salt to taste
Directions:
Turn stove to low-medium heat and add olive oil to a large frying pan
Chop your onions into small pieces
Add onions cook in pan in until they are clear (about 8 minutes)
Empty liquid out of canned black beans, and rinse well with water
Add the black beans to the pan along with 2-3 tbsp of water
Use a potato masher to smash the beans into a chunky puree as they are cooking. If you don’t have a potato masher, you can use two large forks
Add in the lime juice, chipotle, garlic, and sea salt and mix well
Serve with your breakfast and store extra refried beans in a sealed container in your fridge
Directions (the rest of the recipe):
Turn two elements on your stove to medium heat
In one, add olive oil and garlic, mushrooms, and spinach. Cook until the spinach is soft and the mushrooms are brown (about 8 - 10 minutes)
In the other, cook your eggs sunny side up as well as both strips of bacon to your preferred amount of doneness
Serve eggs, bacon, avocado, grilled veggies, salsa, and refried beans on a large plate and enjoy!
