I know most of us look for fast breakfast solutions during the week, especially on Mondays! This Powerful Salad takes exactly 8 minutes to make - because this is how long it takes to boil an egg!
Ingredients and Preparation for one person serving of salad:
While the eggs are cooking, mix in the bowl the following ingredients - Hand full of Spinach, Couple of Branches of Finely Chopped Dill, Large Spoon of Goat Cheese, 2 Spoons of Olive Oil, Pinch of Himalayan or Sea Salt, Pinch of your favorite Salad Spices. Mix well for a minute so that goat cheese can break up in the olive oil and coat the greens. Slice the egg and lay it out on top of the salad. My salad in the picture is garnished with our home grown Kale Micro Greens. Ready to Serve!
