As I’ve always shared with you, breakfast is not my favorite meal of the day and breakfast buffet is the worst place for me at any given time. Grab a cup of coffee and some cheese roll and I’m good to go, until my favorite meal – lunch. People have described me as “like a child being force fed by my parents” every breakfast its because I don’t really have the appetite for breakfast. My tummy isn’t yearning to have five pancakes, or a breakfast platter. Sometimes a bowl of noodles is enough for me. I know what some of you might think – “That’s not right” “You shouldn’t skip breakfast” and “You should eat something hearty for breakfast”. I’ve heard it all, so to motivate myself to get up every morning and have some breakfast, I decided to dedicate this week as “Breakfast Week”. In lieu of this week’s theme I’ve prepared some easy and quick breakfast recipes that you’re all free to try.
So come on, and stay tuned as I have “the most important meal of the day”. 🙂
Egg in the middle
What you’ll need
1 egg
1 piece of bread
3 tablespoons of butter
1/8 teaspoon of thyme
1/8 teaspoon of garlic seasoning

How to do it

green onions and red bell pepper for one (1) minute.
– Using the cookie cutter or glass, cut out a circle from the center of the bread.
– Melt the butter in a small sized non-stick sauce pan over low heat.
– Soak both sides of the bread in butter.
– Crack the egg in the circle.
– Sprinkle
– 1/8 teaspoon of thyme
– 1/8 teaspoon of garlic powder
– 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper
– Cover with the lid and let it cook slowly until the top of the egg looks less runny,
and the sides of the bread look toasted.
– Flip to the other side and let it cook for one (1) minute.
Serves one (1) person | Best served with a warm cup of coffee. 🙂
Notes on this recipe
* Notice that I do not have a specific amount or measurement for the red bell pepper and
green onions, because it just really depends on how many are you going to make.
* As an alternative flavor, you can also use Italian seasoning and salt.
* Also, instead of green onions you can also use chives.
