Foodie | Quick & Easy Brunch Meets Lunch Recipe

After a few weeks on the new 'get the glow' regime, I'm finding I am a whole lot more resourceful when it comes to cooking and finding things on those last few days before the weekly food shop arrives. Fortunately for me, my food shop was packed full of tonnes of veg and protein, so I had plenty left over to play with. This recipe is super easy, incredibly tasty and full of goodness. It could be both a Brunch or Lunch recipe, depending on what you fancy. I've been loving my spiralizer lately, so was super excited to incorporate it in this post.


 

Ingredients
1 x large free range egg
1 x courgette
1tsp Chia Seeds
1 half of a ripe avocado (chopped)
1tsp Coconut Oil
1 x spring onion
Salt & Pepper

Method
1. Start by spiralizing your Courgette and putting it to one side whilst you prep the rest of your ingredients. Then finely chop your spring onion and add to the same bowl as your courgetti. If you're planning on prepping your lunch over an extended period of time, I'd cover the bowl to avoid the veg drying out.

2. In a frying pan, add the coconut oil and melt over a medium heat. Once melted, turn the heat down and add your courgetti and spring onion and cook for 4-5 minutes or until it's going a little golden. Whilst you're keeping an eye on that...

3. Bring a pan of water to boiling point then crack your egg into a ramekin or cup ready to pour into the boiling water. Using a wooden spoon create a 'whirlpool' motion with the boiling water, then quickly pour the cracked egg into the centre of the whirlpool you've created. Don't worry if it looks a little scruffy, thats totally normal. Leave for 2-3 minutes if you like it runny, or 4-5 if you prefer your yolk harder.

4. Once you're happy with your egg(s) and courgetti, place the courgetti on a plate with the egg on top. Sprinkle with your chia seeds and a little salt and pepper. Add the avocado on the side for some extra good fats!

5. Enjoy!
