  • 1 tsp. sugar
  • handful of fresh raspberries

Toast the waffles. Mix the sugar into the cottage cheese. Top the waffles with cottage cheese and fresh raspberries. Finish with fresh cracked black pepper and fresh thyme.

Lemon Hummus Avocado Toast and Soft Boiled Eggs

Ingredients and Directions

  • 1 slice of sourdough bread
  • 2-3 Tbsp. lemon hummus
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 1-2 eggs
  • sliced purple onion
  • lemon zest
  • fresh thyme
  • salt and pepper

Bring 3 inches of water to a rolling boil. Place your egg(s) in, turn the heat to medium, cover, and set a timer for 6 minutes. Toast the bread and top with lemon hummus, sliced avocado, salt, pepper, and sliced onion.

When your six-minute timer goes off, immediately remove your eggs and place in a bowl of ice water for one minute. Crack and gently peel the eggs. The whites will be perfectly cooked and the yolk will be deliciously runny. Sprinkle the eggs with a pinch of salt. Zest a lemon and sprinkle fresh thyme over the entire plate.

Salmon Dip and Cucumber Bagels

  • salt and pepper

Toast the bagel halves. Spread salmon dip on one bagel half. On the other, spread cream cheese. Slice the cucumber and place on the cream cheese bagel. Zest a lemon and top with salt and pepper to taste.

**Great to put together and eat as a bagel sandwich if you’re on the go!
