Breakfast Salad for the big fat win! Am we the only one who doesn’t like cooking breakfast for several minutes every morning? On weekdays, in particular, we often need us to take a quick breakfast so we can carry on with homeschooling, blogging, and all other tasks for the day.
BUT our girls don’t like cereal every morning. Or the typical African bread and tea. Sometimes they want Mama to make something fancier like pancakes or waffles. And we often tell them that that will sadly eat into our school time.
So we've been on the lookout for quick and easy breakfast recipes that taste satisfying and feel very continental and this Breakfast Salad fits right in. It is ready in no time yet it is fresh, crunchy, creamy and worth making again. Our favorite thing to eat it with is bread and viola we have a complete meal!
