Breakfast Of Champions

Every Sunday, we try to have a big family breakfast together since during the week we don’t get to eat together and on Saturdays, we usually just have a quick breakfast before we tackle our to-do list.  I figured I’d start sharing these breakfasts with you because I try to experiment new dishes each week… however, this week’s was an oldie but a goodie…

Spinach & swiss 2 egg omelet with a slice of canadian bacon spinkled with fresh ground black pepper & sea salt…

Best I’ve Made

Yup.. this has to be the very best veggie sammie I’ve ever made… if you love roasted veggies, like me, I’m sure you’ll love this one.  It’s very simple so I didn’t use my normal recipe page, but I did want to share this combination since it’s becoming my favorite go to meal!

First, I sliced eggplant and placed it onto a lined cookie sheet.  Then I sprinkled each slice with a little bit of salt and let it sit for 20 minutes to draw the excess moisture out.  I sliced a tomato and onion and placed them on the cookie sheet.  Then, I drizzled all of the veggies with a little bit of EVOO and put them in the oven at 350 for about 20 minutes or until everything looked just right (aka below).   While the veggies were cooking, I sauteed up about 2 cups of fresh spinach.  Then, I just sliced a WW focaccia roll, drizzled some balsamic vinaigrette on both pieces and popped it in the oven for 5 minutes.  I put all of the veggies on my bread, topped it with 1 ounce fresh goat cheese (sorry guys the cheese is hiding!), put the top on (hehe), and took many enjoyable bites… I think what makes this sandwich unlike any other is the roasted tomatoes and the carmelized onions… I love tomatoes and roasting them just makes them even better… yum!

Come on… who wouldn’t want to dig into this guy? :)
