RECIPES: SPRING 2019 STUFFED BREKKIE AVOS AND SWEET POTATO BREAD The Healthy Chef Teresa Cutter delves into the pages of her new plant-based cookbook to share two recipes that will transform your brekkies and brunches this spring. Stuffed avocado with scrambled eggs I’m a huge fan of scrambled eggs as they are rich in protein, B vitamins, and essential minerals such as selenium that help to nourish a healthy metabolism. Avocados provide the perfect base in this dish. Enjoy caressed with fresh herbs and sea salt. Serves 4 Ingredients 2 avocados, cut in half and stone removed 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil 6 organic eggs pinch of sea salt fresh herbs to garnish Method 1. Arrange avocados onto a serving dish. 2. Melt butter in a non-stick pan over a medium heat. 3. Break eggs into a bowl then gently combine with a fork. 4. Add eggs to the pan, mixing through lightly with a spatula. 5. Stir gently until the eggs become creamy. 6. Remove pan from the heat immediately (you don’t want to overcook your eggs). 7. Spoon eggs into the avocado shells, then sprinkle with sea salt. 8. Garnish with your choice of herbs. 9. Serve and enjoy. Notes and inspiration: Serve alongside cucumber ribbons and a squeeze of lime. For a vegan option, fill avocado with scrambled organic silken tofu. 10 | NETWORK SPRING 2019
