Fish and veggies for breakfast. How Irish of you.

I have no idea how accurate/politically correct that is. I know my mom always said that about me though. And, she was a funny lady. And, pretty smart. So, I'm taking it at face value and calling it Irish.

I believe my love of vegetables, versus fruit, at breakfast stemmed from the Avocado Breakfast Salad. I have never been a huge egg fan, so omelets were not a vegetable vehicle for me. Also, rarely will you catch me snacking on vegetables throughout the day, but you will certainly catch me with a handful of berries. So this was an attempt to get more veggies in my diet. If you need more veggies, want more veggies and gotta gotta have it- this is for you.

INGREDIENTS

To make Grain free English muffin, you can follow the recipe over at Beauty and the Foodie, or follow this. Let me save you from the mistake I made AND DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT, use Almond Flour. Blech, just blech...

1/2 tbsp coconut oil 
1 egg beaten
1 tbsp milk (I have used skim milk and homemade Almond Coconut Milk-preferred the skim)
1 tbsp coconut flour 
1/4 tsp Honey
Pinch Sea Salt
1/8 tsp baking soda with 1/4 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar in a small bowl (this will help the rise)

1. Melt the coconut oil in your dish, in the microwave. I used a large cylindrical mug, like this one)
2. Place the baking soda and apple cider vinegar in their little bowl. It'll fizz.
3. Add all your ingredients to the mug, and whisk until well mixed and smooth
4. Add the baking soda and vinegar mixture. Continue to mix until smooth
5. Now the best part!! Cook it for 1 min and 30 seconds in the microwave, yes the microwave!
6. Take your muffin out of your dish and slice it in half, bun style.
7. Lightly brown the muffin top and bottom, on both sides, in an oiled skillet.


Yay your English muffin is done!!!

Now poach an egg, slice a tomato, an avocado, some smoked salmon, top it with some capers and fresh cracked pepper and enjoy the best breakfast you've ever had.
