Grilled Veggie Breakfast Scramble

There are so many reasons to prioritize eating a healthy morning meal. By having a well-balanced mix of protein, healthy fat, and fiber, you’re setting yourself up for a better day by laying a good foundation of nutrients. Plus, this will help you be less likely to overeat and more likely to make healthier choices throughout the day.  Cooking doesn’t have to be complicated, that’s why egg-dishes are an easy, delicious and filling go-to.

3 asparagus stalks, grilled
½ one portobello, grilled
⅓ cup onions, grilled

1 teaspoon shredded cheddar cheese
½ tomato, sliced

You can add so much flavor and variety by using those different leftover roasted vegetables, meats, cheeses, and herbs. You’ll get your protein, and veggies filled with lots of antioxidants all in one satisfying dish.
