Mediterranean Savory Breakfast Bowls
Mediterranean Savory Breakfast Bowls combine cooked eggs with sautéed mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, spinach, and garlic served alongside hummus and seasoned with Aleppo pepper and za’atar. The sautéed vegetables retain some texture while the hummus adds creaminess, bringing balance and vibrant Mediterranean flavors to a hearty breakfast bowl.
Ingredients
- 4 egg cooked to your liking (I am using soft boiled eggs
- 8 ounces white button mushrooms (halved)
- extra virgin olive oil
- kosher salt
- 2 cups cherry tomato
- 2 cups baby spinach (packed)
- 1 to 2 garlic minced, cloves
- 1 1/2 cups hummus (homemade ahead or quality store-bought)
- Seasoning of your choice (I used Aleppo pepper and Za'atar)
- olive optional
Instructions
- Cook the eggs to your liking. I went with soft boiled eggs, but scrambled, sunny-side up or any way you like them will work. (Boiled eggs can be cooked in advance and refrigerated for later use).
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet. Add the mushrooms. Season with salt and cook on both sides until browned (about 7 minutes)
- Add the cherry tomatoes, spinach, garlic. Season with another pinch of salt. Cook briefly, 2 to 3 minutes, till warmed through and the spinach wilts.
- Assemble the bowls. Divide the mushroom, spinach and tomato mixture among 4 bowls. Add the eggs and hummus next. Drizzle a bit of extra virgin olive oil over the hummus, if you like.
- Add seasonings of your choice (I used a little Aleppo Pepper and za’atar, about 1 teaspoon each).
Notes
- Make hummus ahead or use quality store-bought for convenience.
- Cook eggs to preferred doneness; soft boiled eggs can be refrigerated for later use.
- Assemble bowls fully or keep components separate in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Drizzle olive oil over hummus only when ready to serve to preserve texture.
