Point being, I'm way early and I have just enough time to get this little post up for the early birds. So, we eat these eggs pretty much every weekday. Paleo doesn't leave too many choices for breakfast unless you want to get fancy with protein-packed baked goods, so we do these every morning and mix it up on the weekends.
I have had this little Black & Decker steamer since my freshman year in college. My grandmother - bless her heart - gave it to me for school so I could steam vegetables for myself every night. I think she would have driven to college station to beat me had she known I was actually eating Whataburger 4 times a week. Anyway...the steamer can be purchased for probably $30 at Walmart.
I also have these little baby Pyrex cups (the kind they use on food shows to add spices, etc). These are the perfect size for one egg. I spray these little babies with olive oil and crack an egg into each. I do whole eggs for Ryan and one whole egg, one white for me.
My steamer holds 4 of these. They have several new versions of the steamer that are oblong and would probably hold more. I set the timer for 12 - 13 minutes and finish getting ready for the day. This makes them a little more like hard-boiled. If you like softer (poached) I'd set the timer for about 10 minutes.
On my way out, I pull out my little cups and leave Ryan's in the steamer. If you recover them quickly they'll stay warm in there for about an hour. I use a spoon to pop them out of the Pyrex like so.
I've been using this salsa for a while and I LOVE IT. For the longest time I could only find it at Whole Foods, but they have it at HEB now. It's just avocado, cucumber, and peppers. Get some. YUM.
I eat this with 2 slices of turkey bacon - microwaved for 1 minute. And yes, this is a paper plate. Remember - PRACTICAL paleo.
I know that seems like a lot of instruction for something that literally takes 2 minutes (besides steam time), but I'm kind of new to this food blogging thing, so bear with me. ENJOY!
Xo,
Alyssa
