There's lettuce, quinoa, walnuts, hard boiled egg, feta, tomatoes and dill fronds on that pile. Low carb, high protein and best of all, tasty as hell. It'll give you plenty of energy to put your hand to fixing this fucked up world. The above photo was taken when my lettuces were still in their more diminutive state. Now they look like this monster pictured below:
I didn't plant you, but I welcome you.
Breakfast Salad
(quantities for each serving)
pile a plate high with lettuce (and/or spinach, arugula, baby kale)
top with:
1/4 C chopped walnuts
1/2 C quinoa*
1 medium tomato (or a handful of cherry tomatoes), cut into wedges
1 hard cooked egg, cut into wedges
about 2T crumbled feta
some dill fronds if you have them
drizzle on your favorite vinaigrette
Eat your breakfast salad and then relish the energy that you have, no mid-morning carb crash coming for you, my friend! You are well-fed, fired up and off to change the fucking world!
*in order to always have quinoa on hand, I recommend making a big batch, cooling it and freezing it in a big gallon ziplock bag. When you need some, you pull the bag out of the freezer, whack off a lump, nuke it for a minute or two, and then put it on your salad.
