So, originally I was going to call this a 'breakfast' bowl, but then I started to realize that you could eat this for just about any meal. If you want it more 'breakfast' style you could cook the eggs scrambled or poached. For lunch? I prefer the hardboiled! Making it into dinner? Toss in some grilled chicken.
With all of that being said, I decided it was best to just call it the Mediterranean Bowl, and not label it with a specific meal type. No matter when you decided to enjoy it, it's packed with loads of nutrients and good-for-you stuff.
I've left this Mediterranean Bowl as a perfectly easy meal that's also great for meal prepping. Since it's a single serving, it's easy to double, triple, quadruple the recipe to make it ahead for the coming days. Just toss it into an airtight container without the avocado and have it ready to go when you are. Add in the avocado just before eating!
Me? I'm still over here using up my small local pullet eggs and heirloom tomatoes. But any sort of tomato or size of egg will work out just as well.
I love how versatile this meal is. Enjoy it hot, cold, day or night! No matter how you make it your own, you and your tastebuds will be happy and satisfied!
