Method
 

  1. Boil the Eggs: Place 2 large eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil and cook the eggs for 8-10 minutes. After cooking, transfer them to an ice bath or cool under cold running water to stop the cooking process. Once cool, peel the eggs and cut them in half.
  2. Prepare the Vegetables: While the eggs are cooling, slice a medium-sized tomato into rounds and halve 1/2 an avocado, carefully removing the pit.
  3. Sauté the Mushrooms: In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add 1 cup of sliced mushrooms and sauté until they are golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Steam the Spinach: In a separate pot, insert a steamer basket and add 2 cups of fresh spinach. Steam for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat.
  5. Assemble the Plate: On a large plate, arrange the boiled egg halves, avocado slices, fresh tomato slices, sautéed mushrooms, and steamed spinach. If desired, add a slice or two of whole grain toast on the side.
  6. Season and Serve: Sprinkle salt and pepper over the eggs and avocado. Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs for added flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy!
  7. By following these steps, you’ll achieve a beautifully presented breakfast that bursts with color and flavor. Don’t hesitate to adjust cooking times based on your equipment and personal preferences.
