Toast with goat cheese, harissa, avocado, egg, and honey

The photo makes me want to eat it again.

Sometimes, Pinterest tells you to put goat cheese, harissa, avocado, egg, and honey on toast. And you obey.

At the time, I was searching for inspiration to use up some leftover goat cheese. I happened to also have a surplus of avocado, harissa, and eggs on hand. It was meant to be.

We agreed that this was something we'd find at Off the Waffle. If you replaced a fluffy, buttery liege waffle with sesame Ezekiel bread, that is.


The Recipe:
1 slice toast
1 oz goat cheese (I used herbed)
1/8 avocado, sliced
1 egg, cooked to your liking
dollop of harissa
drizzle of honey
  • Top toast with harissa, goat cheese, and avocado. Place egg on top, and drizzle with honey.

The Verdict:
Overall grade: A
Overall reason: Decadent and not unhealthy
Time to prepare: 10 minutes
Husband quote: "This is my new favorite breakfast."

Kitchen renovation!

BEFORE: AFTER: Still to come: a beautiful new induction range and some wood shelving on the left side, above the backsplash. And maybe the shelving unit on the wall facing the cabinets should be green, but we're going to live with a while before making that decision.

Red lentil dal

Cucumber salad is key. This dal is perfect. Most of us took seconds, and I'm really excited to eat the last portion that's sitting in the fridge right now. The accompanying salad is really great for adding texture, crunch, and acidity to the meal. I wouldn't skip it. I got it from  Tea for Turmeric  and prepared it pretty much as written, but doubled and with none of the optional ingredients. This recipe doesn't mention any seasoning/dressing on the salad, but adding lemon and salt to it really brightened things up. The Recipe: (from Tea for Turmeric) 2 c red lentils splash of avocado oil 2 tsp cumin seeds 2 small onions, finely chopped 1 inch ginger, grated 4 small tomatoes, chopped 2 thai chilies, minced 2 tsp cumin powder 2 tsp coriander powder 1 tsp cayenne 1 tsp turmeric 2+ tsp kosher salt 2 tsp lemon juice 1/2 c cilantro, chopped For serving: basmati rice and plain yogurt Salad ingredients: 1/2 english cucumber, sliced 10 cherry tomatoes, quartered 1/4 onion, slic...

Curry Fried Rice

Excited for these leftovers. One of the things I wanted to try with my  new jar of curry powder  was fried rice. Years ago, Miles got fried rice at  Korea House  and it was the best fried rice I'd ever had. I suspected there was curry powder in it, but at that time I had never really cooked with curry powder, so I tucked that knowledge away for a later date. After reading a few recipes, I went rogue on this one. I couldn't even begin to effectively guess at what proportions I ended up with, so the recipe below is more of a rough guideline of ingredients. The "Recipe" (sorry no quantities; follow your heart): leftover jasmine rice tofu, cubed and crisped in the oven with avocado oil and salt vegetables: garlic, onion, cabbage, red bell pepper salt curry powder (I used a Vietnamese one) soy sauce sugar sesame oil future topping ideas: runny egg, sesame seeds, green onion Saute the vegetables in avocado oil until softened, and salt them to taste Add the tofu and toss to...
