What am I thinking? Polenta for breakfast? Well…. yeeeeaaaaah. Why not?
In addition to veggie smoothies several mornings a week, I’m now adding comfort food to breakfast. What’s nicer, more satisfying than warm, parmesan crusted polenta?
You will notice the bread is Ezekiel. Flourless, low glycemic sprouted 100% whole grain bread. Why? Because your body processes it easier than other choices.
This mixture has egg, parmesan crusted polenta, roasted red pepper, a very small amount of pan seared prosciutto, spinach, cilantro & a sprinkle of garlic powder/garlic pepper. Did you know that pepper is a good thing to eat in the morning, but not at night?
Yep. Pepper will keep you awake, and stimulate you in the morning…. well that’s what my friend Mary says. And all the website opinions seem to agree. No coffee. Just add pepper to your decaf coffee.
YECH!
Back to the food…… look at the picture again…..There’s not a lot of anything in here… although because it’s on bread, it sure looks like this sandwich is going to be jam packed.
So here’s to the first meal of the day! Doesn’t have to cost a lot of money. Doesn’t have to take a lot of time to make. Just has to taste good!
And with that, I bid you adieu!
Happy Eating,
Chef Marian
