Poached Egg Breakfast Salad

feta cheese

🥗Healthier: goat cheese

💰Cheaper: cottage cheese

Goat cheese offers a similar tangy flavor with fewer calories.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is more affordable while still providing healthy fats.

Prepare your salad greens and toss them with cubed veggies of your choice.

Add sliced cherry tomatoes to the salad mix.

In a small saucepan, add enough water to cover an egg by half an inch and add vinegar to the water.

Bring the water to a boil, then add salt to offset the vinegar flavor.

Reduce the heat to a very low simmer, just barely simmering.

Stir the water to create a vortex and gently add the egg into the center of the vortex.

Cook the egg for three minutes for a runny yolk, or up to five minutes for a firmer yolk.

Once the egg is poached, place it on top of the salad.

Season with cracked black pepper.
