RE: Heart Healthy No-Buy Month - Two Weeks In

I love making a miniaturized version of the "Turkish breakfast" and slightly vary it.
the staples are: egg, cheese, meat, tomatoes and cucumbers, olives, hummus, yogurt, nuts, olive oil + coffee

So take that, and make it in any variation - the egg can be boiled or fried, cheese-any, meats - any (including fish), etc.

The Turks eat a lot of bread "Lavash" in the morning, as well as dry fruits and berry jams. But since it all falls under 'sugars' I just skip all that.

Oh, and avocado is not part of the Turkish entourage of ingredients, but I add it too.

Oh, yes, I love Turkish breakfasts, too, that used to be a Sunday morning treat when I lived in London. I would walk down King's Road and turn off to South Kensington and have breakfast at Comptoir Lebanese. I love those sorts of composite meals. I like the bread, too! (I have to have builder's tea, though - I'm English) 😂

hahahah of course ☕️ ! I'm an earl grey lover myself, though you really got to go on a 3-hr drive to get buy it in Ecuador. In the US I used to buy very exotic leaf teas, blooming teas, just aaaall kinds. But here we mainly have readily available hibiscus, chamomile, lemongrass, anis and one type of black tea.
