Breakfast: Avocado Toasts with Shaved Eggs and Bacon
Melt some butter into a pan and add your preferred bread (my kids like Texas toasts). Toast until golden brown on both sides. Mash your avocados and season to your liking. Spread the mashed avocado on the toasts, using a cheese grater, grate a boiled egg on top and finish with crumbled bacon.

Lunch: Pasta with Sausage and Broccoli
Ingredients:
1 lb. mild Italian sausage (bulk or removed from casings)
10 oz small pasta
2 medium shallots, sliced thinly
4 garlic cloves, minced
8 oz broccoli, cut into small florets
2 tablespoons oilve oil
1 tablespoon tomato paste
15 oz can diced tomatoes
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1 tsp salt
1 tsp all purpose seasoning
1 tsp Italian seasoning
2/3 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions:
Cook pasta al dente per directions, reserve about 1/2 cup pasta water.

Into a skillet, add the oilve oil and brown the sausage breaking it up as you go. Add the sliced shallots and minced garlic. Stir to combine and cook for a few minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook for a few minutes. Season to your liking then add the diced tomatoes. Let this simmer for a few minutes then add the broccoli. Close the lid and cook for 3-5 minutes or until broccoli is tender.

Remove the lid then add the heavy cream, parmesan and pasta. Toss to combine, check for seasoning.

Smoothie bowls: into a blender add 1/2 cup milk, 1.5 cups frozen raspberries, 1 frozen banana, 1 cup frozen cauliflower florets and 1 cup pineapple. Blend until smooth. This is going to be a thick texture and may require a blender tamper. If mixture is too thick add a splash of milk. Place into bowls and top with fresh fruits.

    I cannot express how much I love your videos! Firstly, the amazing breakfast/lunch/dinner ideas, and seeing how you combine certain foods that I did not think of doing. However, what I love the most is the editing style: no proffessional studio or lights or microphones or any of that, I know that you will get better doing it, but please remember that your current style gives us the authenticity that we so rarely see these days. Lots of love!
