English Muffin with Avocado, Eggs, and Pesto

October 8, 2012 by Jaida 4 Comments

Good morning, and happy Monday friends! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend, and are rested and ready to get this week started! I spent the weekend almost entirely at home for the first time in…I don’t know how long. In fact, as Saturday evening rolled around I found myself at a loss for what to do at home. I decided to plop down on the couch and watch a couple of chick flicks. Yep, it was fabulous.

You know what else was fabulous? Waking up early Sunday morning, refreshed and ready to start the day. What better way to start the day than with this amazing breakfast? It’s reveal day for the Secret Recipe Club, and I received the blog Avocado Pesto. Vicky has one awesome blog, y’all. Not only does she have a ton of amazing recipes, she has a section for dairy free, gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian as well as a section on travel. So much to read about on one blog!! And as I browsed through her recipes, I came across this breakfast that look familiar. Upon a closer look, I discovered that I had pinned it on Pinterest some time back! How cool is that?

Since I’m not all that great at getting to the non-dinner recipes I have pinned, I was happy for an excuse to finally get this breakfast on my table. It was simple and even more delicious than it looks. The perfect start to my Sunday. This will definitely be a recurring breakfast in my house.

Welcome!

As a busy wife and mom who also works a full time job, I try to have dinner done in 30 minutes or less so I can spend more of my evenings with my hubby and baby girl, so what you will find here are recipes that are mostly-healthy, quick and easy. Of course I have desserts, less healthy and more time-intensive meals as well (everything in moderation!), but all-in-all, you can count on weeknight friendly options, all made with love and dished up with a side of life, love, and family!
