Avocado Kale Tartine
Serves 1.
In my opinion, three ingredients that complete a savoury breakfast are avocado, kale, and eggs. I made this one morning when I was in the mood for something warm and fulfilling. You’ll feel like a Parisian with this open-faced sandwich!

Tip:
Don’t be afraid of the whole egg in this recipe. There is a common misconception that the egg yolk is somehow less healthy than the white. This couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, the yolk contains nearly half the protein content of the whole egg and it’s a rich source of nutrients, containing far more calcium, vitamin D, and folate than the white.[/callout]Advertisement
