Egg Soup Breakfast
My favorite way of breaking fast (break-fast) is with egg soup.
It is also a breakfast that my LO and have shared many times.
I see it as the best nutrient-dense breakfast for a developing brain containing proteins, fats, and omegas.
For adults who want to keep their brains clear and focused, egg soup is a meal to eat and be able to effectively continue working.
If not over-cooked, eggs are easy to digest. If eggs are over-cooked smelly burps will occur.
Ingredients
Egg Quality:
The life of the chicken who lays the egg seriously matters, the yellow of the yolk is telling of just how healthy is the chicken… or not.
Organic, free-range, happy, dark yellow yolks are what to look for. (We currently are buying Vital Farms organic)
- Dark yellow yolks indicate nutrients.
Ingredients
- Organic free-range eggs (2 to 4)
- Ghee or grass fed organic butter or olive oil (1 to 3 Tablespoons)
- Sea, Mountain, or River Salt to taste (listen to your body)
Method
-
Bring the water to a boil.
-
Gently lower the eggs into the pan of boiling water with a spoon.
-
Set time for 5 to 8 minutes
(I find when we change locations and stoves the time to boil changes… also the size of the eggs matters. (If they are small eggs 5 minutes will be good and how many eggs we are boiling at the same time increases time). -
When your timer rings, take the pan to the sink, dump out the hot water, and run under cold water for a couple of minutes. (Some people put ice to cool off faster).
-
Peel eggs and put in bowl.
-
Add oil of choice.
-
Add pinch of salt to taste.
- Eat Hot!
