Weekend breakfast

I'm not really a breakfast person. To be honest I can often go without breakfast or lunch and just eat a proper meal in the evening. 

When I do breakfast though, especially at the weekend I tend to make a little more effort. One of my favourite breakfasts is eggs in any form. I enjoy poached eggs on toast, but will also often make scrambled eggs on toast as there is so much potential to add flavour or use up veg.

My scrambled eggs are often accompanied with

  • Mushrooms
  • Worcestershire sauce (the resulting colour may be off putting but the flavour is worth it)
  • Cheese
  • Mustard
  • Spring onions

Although, I hasten to add, not all together!

This morning I started with the standard eggs/milk/butter (or butter like spread) mix. I do my eggs on the hob as I find this helps me to judge how 'done' they are. It also helps when mixing in other ingredients - I'm not sure how well these mixtures would work in the microwave.

When the eggs had started to cook, but before they were fully done I added some spinach which needed using up. This combination was suggested in a book called 'How to Eat Like a Hot Chick'. I should point out that this was something I won in some indiscriminate competition entering - it's not the type of book I'd usually buy.

Finally, to add a little more flavour I spread the toast with a little sriracha. 

Scrambled eggs may not the most adventurous recipe on this blog but they are full of experimental potential.
