Hot Morning Salad Breakfast

     This is a good healthy breakfast for a hot morning.  I have it every so often with different variations depending on which vegetable's and fruits are in season.  Grab a handful of loaded with nutrition spinach and toss into salad bowl.  Spoon some of the giant Lula or Pollock avocado out of the shell into a bowl.  These avocado's are as big as pinapples.  I always leave my avocado in the skin unless I'm going to eat it all at once and I would have to be pretty hungry to eat one of these all at once.  I feel it keeps longer that way.  I can use it for four meals.  Had a green onion so I chopped it and threw it in the pile. I added a half of a large tomato, some Swiss  cheese, bacon bits, fresh garlic and five green olives chopped.  Then I added some dry spices.   Italian Seasoning, hot red peppers flakes and black pepper.  Fresh is always better but don't always have fresh.  Last but not least, flax seed and a squirt of mustard because mustard eats fat and gives your dish a tangy twist.

Two Dollar Dinner & Breakfast

     Nope - it ain't pizza - you single men.  Gross!  You can't get a pizza for two dollars.  I opened a can of  black beans for dinner.  Added a can of diced tomato with green chili's.  I sprinkled some basil, cumin, rosemary in and a clove of chopped garlic.  Then used my corn chips as a spoon.  Mmmmm yummy.  Couldn't eat it all in one sitting so hoped it wouldn't spoil during the night.  It didn't so w a l l a.....there was breakfast ready and waiting for me when I woke.  Not hungry when I wake but didn't want to give it time to spoil so had an early breakfast.  Rinsed well and added some left over fresh spinach that was trying to sog, to my tomato/bean concoction and ate up with my corn chip spoons.  Still yummy and not unhealthy.  The corn chips are some what fattening but have some health benefits too like omega 6 fatty acids along with some important minerals.  Limit yourself to a handful.  You have two healthy meals for less than two dollars.

Banana - Walnut Breakfast

     This morning I had a quick, filling, breakfast which consisted of one banana, a handful of walnuts, a bite size snicker bar chopped because I like the combination of chocolate, banana and nuts.  Tossed in a few raisins for energy.  Then sprinkled some uncooked oatmeal and flax seed.  Healthy and Delicious!

This post was as quick, easy and beneficial  to all as the breakfast.
