I'll start this off with one of my favorite, simple yet delicious, vegetable dishes, roasted asparagus spears.

"Pour about 1 Tbs. extra virgin olive oil per pound of asparagus onto a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil (for easy clean up - saving time after cooking and dining is important too).

Using your hands, roll the asparagus through the oil and rub them against each other until the oil coats them all. Spread the asparagus out in the sheet pan to form a single layer. Apply freshly ground black pepper and salt to the oiled asparagus.

Place the asparagus laden sheet pan into the oven and allow it to roast for 10 to 15 minutes.

Roasting the asparagus until it just changes color from a medium green to a dark green will result in tender but still somewhat crisp texture. Continuing to roast until some light browning appears will provide a mushy and somewhat limp texture with a heightened flavor. Continuing to roast will dehydrate the asparagus and result in a fibrous mass in the shape of blackened asparagus."

This sounds gross but I love it and eat it for breakfast every morning. 1 cup of cottage cheese. 2 tbsp organic natural peanut butter 1/2 scoop chocolate whey protein 1 cup frozen blueberries Mix the cottage cheese and peanut butter first, then add the whey protein and mix well. Finally add the blueberries, microwave for 45 seconds, and mix again. The resulting product is still cold but very chocolate/blueberry flavored. Has around 45 grams of protein with at least 20 grams from casein, 15 grams of fat, and 25 grams of low glycemic carbs (around 10 from fiber). I'll usually eat this twice a day which leads to roughly 10 lbs of cottage cheese per week.

Two soft boiled eggs
cover with Two slices of proscuitto
Salt and Pepper

The only one who loves this my than me is my dog. She often gets a little piece of the proscuitto. She will spin, roll over and beg for it.

This, along with a latte is the perfect breakfast IMO.

grilled oriental style salmon:


one salmon filet rub olive oil, crack pepper and a touch of salt on both sides with the skin.

on high flame frying pan, sear skin side first, after a few minutes flip.

last minute, add a teaspoon of soy sauce and rice vinegar. let it evaporate in heat and serve on top of a bowl of steaming rice.


mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

That sounds like a good shake , not gross at all. I would probably keep the blueberries frozen and blend it in; I like my shakes to be a bit icy. It sounds really thick; I would probably add extra water.

That sounds great! I almost always eat boiled eggs with soy sauce. 2 eggs for breakfast isn't very much though especially if you're sharing with the dog haha.
