Avocado Breakfast Medley

I'm not much of a cereal person, I prefer fruits or veggies in the morning. Green smoothies are a great option too! One of my favorite breakfast dishes is my Avocado Breakfast Medley. As a matter of fact, it's great anytime of the day. As you follow these recipes, keep in mind that organic is best. Buy organic whenever it's available, especially for foods with thin skin such as tomatoes, cucumber, grapes, peaches, etc.

Ingredients
1 Avocado
1 Roma Tomato (or handful of cherry tomatoes)
1/2 Cucumber
Scallions (or Green Onions)
Olives
Cilantro (freshly chopped is preferred, but dry is ok)
Olive Oil
Juice from half a lime
Dash of Sea Salt (optional)
Dash of Cayenne Pepper (optional)

Instructions
Slice cucumber and add to bowl. Leave the skin on and do not remove the seeds, they are the most nutrient-dense part of the cucumber.

Slice tomato and add to the bowl.

Slice avocado in half lengthwise. Remove pit and dice before removing from the peel. Using a spoon, scoop out the avocado from the peel and add to bowl.

Add chopped cilantro.

Squeeze lime juice over all ingredients in bowl, then drizzle with oil, dash of sea salt and cayenne pepper. Toss around to distribute evenly.

Top with whatever olives you prefer, I love sliced black olives in this recipe.

Chop the green part of the scallions and sprinkle on top of the medley. Save the root and drop them in a glass of water so that they'll sprout again.

ENJOY!

This recipe can be jazzed up in so many ways by using a variety of herbs, adding raisins, walnuts, sesame seeds or even hemp seeds. I've added homemade Salsa Roja Asada on top and it was delicious! Experiment with varieties and share your ideas. Remember to stick with Sebi Approved* ingredients for optimum health.

Thanks for visiting :)
