Hi friends!
A couple months ago I shared these Baked Scotch Eggs! They’re great for breakfast, dinner or snacks. This month, we’re switching gears a little bit and talking about how to get more veggies at breakfast!
Before you go running for the hills at the thought of eating a salad for breakfast, give me a chance to make my case for this one!
First of all, I used fresh spring veggies which are currently in-season right now and tasting their best.
Second of all, if you like runny eggs, this is definitely a recipe you need to try. We’re basically using these egg yolks as a nice little salad dressing. If you have the option to buy pasteurized eggs, I’d definitely recommend it!
Here’s how you make it:

I so so love the idea of a salad for breakfast – especially when it’s topped with a decadent egg! Pinned, yummed and drooled all over this one – thanks for the inspiration, Lindsay!
So glad there’s someone with me for breakfast salads! This one looks super satisfying, and you can do no wrong with a runny egg like that. 😀
Yum! I love this kind of a meal for any time of the day!
I don’t believe I have ever had a salad for breakfast, that is going to have to change this Sunday!
It looks so fresh and healthy.
Nice post!
