I woke up this morning in need of some inspiration and something different. Normally I would be sharing pictures of inspiring interiors or current design projects and ideas in the works. But, this morning I'm cooking instead. I find cooking to be extremely therapeutic. Some of my favorite moments are cooking in the kitchen with David who happens to be quite the chef. In college whenever I had late design classes - I'd always come home to wonderfully home-cooked meal. His signature dish was pork chops with an apple chutney. Cooking together always takes me back to our little tree house apartment.
I took inspiration for this morning's meal from Sara at Sprouted Kitchen. Reading her blog is definitely a treat. Her talented husband, Hugh is a photographer. Hugh happened to have gone on Semester at Sea with the Best Man in our wedding. We desperately tried to book him for our wedding but someone had already snatched him up. Lucky them! : )
The ingredients for this breakfast are pretty simple.
Whole Wheat Tortillas (you can use flour or even corn)
Eggs (or egg whites would be a good healthy option)
Jack Cheese (or any cheese)
Spinach (for big muscles)
tomatoes
onions
basil
avocado
Cut the tomatoes in half a roast them in the oven at 325 for about 20 mins or until the onions turn slightly brown. Do this in the beginning while you're preparing the rest of the meal.
I forgot about mine and they turned a little more than slightly brown - still good though!
I warmed the tortillas straight over the stove flame to get them nice and toasty.
Pile it all in and enjoy!
