Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup black lentils or hummus
  • 4 oz. fatty fish, eggs, tofu see post for details on choice
  • 2 handfuls microgreens or arugula or spinach
  • 2 tsp Za'atar spice mix

Instructions

Protein Prep

  • follow one of the 3 ideas in post, or simply, as mentioned above, gather your protein choice.

Reduce Sodium if desired

  • rinse olives and capers from their briny saltiness (I do this because I eat them on the regular and the sodium isn’t part of their superfood qualities)

Assemble

  • follow the template of ingredients above and make your breakfast bowl!

Notes

Nutritional info based on tofu (w/out marinade)
