Breakfast is served on a silver platter with these deliciously easy and nutritious egg recipes! Celebrate Saturday the best way: inside (or in the backyard) with your loved ones!

Eggs are not only a staple breakfast item, they are also really versatile. They can either be fancy or simple, and no matter how the dice is tossed, they never take that long to make. With that in mind, it seemed on par to dedicate this weekend’s post to the love affair we have with this food.

Eggs in A Cloud

Unless you’ve been living under a social media rock, cloud eggs are blowing up the world of food. These pretty eggs are so much more than good looks. They are simple to make and nutritious! Consisting of a few ingredients and even fewer steps, it’s basically a no-brainer to make on the weekend. Here’s how to do it:

You’ll Need:

+ 4 eggs
+ ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese
+ 2 tsp Basil Leaf Cut & Sifted Organic (or herb of choice)

To Make:

Separate the yolks of your eggs from the whites. Put each yolk in one bowl.

In a small bowl whisk the egg whites to form peaks. Then add the basil, and parmesan cheese.

Once mixed, line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Place the egg white mixture on the paper and make a well (this will house the yolk later)

Bake for 3 minutes.

Add the yolk.

Bake until the yolks are cooked (2-3 minutes)

Remove and add salt/pepper – enjoy!

1-2-3 Done Baked Eggs

Looking for something that seems gourmet, tastes gourmet, but doesn’t cost you money like it was actually gourmet? Then here is the recipe of your daydreams: baked eggs. These little guys are not only delicious, they are visually appealing, too! Win-win.

You’ll Need:

+1 cup Marinara Sauce

+ 2 eggs

+ 2 ramekins

To Make:

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

Place ½ cup marinara sauce into each ramekin.

Add one egg into each ramekin (it will lay on top of the sauce)

Place in the oven and bake for 10 minutes.

Top with cheese and basil for added flavor!

Avocados Love Eggs

When it comes to the kitchen, avocados seem to be king. Yet, with all the recipes out there (think avo-eggs, avo-toast) there doesn’t seem to be that many new happenings. Allow us to introduce the Avo-Smash. Fusion of avo, eggs, and scrambled goodness delivered in toast form.

You'll Need:

+ 3 eggs

+ 1 Avocado, cut up into cubes

+ Salt/Pepper

+ Cayenne Pepper

+ Toast (Rye bread)

+ 1 tsp Sunflower Seed Oil

To Make:

In a skillet, add the oil, over medium-high heat. Let warm. 

In a bowl, mix together your eggs with salt and pepper (amount added depends on your personal taste preferences). 

Add eggs to the skillet and scramble.

Add the cut avocado into the skillet and cook with the eggs. 

Once done, remove from heat. 

Toast your bread.

Add the eggs/avocado on top and eat up!
