Instructions
-
Cook the Eggs: Poach or soft-boil eggs to your liking.
-
Prepare the Avocado: Dice and drizzle with lemon juice.
-
Wilt the Spinach (Optional): Sauté quickly in oil or leave raw.
-
Assemble the Bowl: Layer spinach, avocado, smoked salmon, and eggs.
-
Add Extras: Dollop with cream cheese, drizzle oil, sprinkle dill, salt, pepper, and seasoning.
-
Customize and Enjoy: Add any optional toppings and dig in.
Notes
-
Egg style: Poached eggs offer a runny yolk that doubles as a creamy sauce. Soft-boiled eggs give you a jammy texture.
-
Avocado tip: Drizzling lemon juice prevents browning and enhances flavor.
-
Make it dairy-free: Omit cream cheese and use a dairy-free seasoning blend.
-
Meal prep idea: You can cook the eggs and prep toppings in advance—just assemble when ready to eat.
-
Serving variation: This bowl also works well wrapped in lettuce cups or layered in a mason jar for on-the-go meals.
-
Nutrient boost: Add hemp seeds or flaxseeds for extra omega-3s and fiber.
