Sunny Side Up Pizza

Instead of actually having a cold, leftover pizza for breakfast, as one does, why not deliberately make a fun, breakfast-apropos pizza with only a handful of basic ingredients? Toppings are welcome, but that’s completely at the discretion of your morning manner.

Simple and Figure-Friendly Salmon Burger

What I like the most about this salmon burger is that, besides being tender and melt-in-your-mouth delicious, it doesn’t need any grain or flour to hold the patties together.

Beet Salad with Poached Egg

The cooler months make me crave some starchier vegetables and deeper flavors. This cool beet salad topped with warm poached egg is a great part of Sunday brunch.
