I wanted to turn this somewhat typical breakfast option into a true culinary delicacy. Healthy spinach with a gentle garlic touch is combined with vibrant Italian recipe for poached eggs.
Optionally, serve with some kalamata olives or red bell peppers. However, there is another way of serving these eggs. Top with some Greek yogurt and cream cheese and chill in the refrigerator.
As you will see from the final product, I also serve it with a pancake. I will show you how to make those pancakes below. I promise you’ll enjoy it!
I’m obsessed with different keto pancake recipes. They are my number one serving option for eggs, sautéed vegetables, or grilled meat.
For this pancake in the photo, you’ll need:
- 2 oz cream cheese
- 3 eggs
- 1 tsp salt
- ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp almond flour
- ¼ tsp powdered stevia
- 5 tbsp oil
Preparation:
Whisk together eggs and cream cheese. Transfer to the mixing bowl and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add almond flour and stevia and beat well on high speed – for three minutes.
Grease a large pancake skillet with some oil. Preheat over medium-high heat and add about two tablespoons of the batter. Cook until completely set on one side, for 2 minutes. Flip carefully with a thin spatula and cook for one more minute.
This mixture will give you 4 pancakes with 1.1 grams of net carbs per pancake. These are really worth your time! Enjoy!
Alright let’s get back to our poached egg recipe!
Let’s Ketofy It!
Pour the olive oil in a pan set over medium-high heat. Once the oil is heated, drop the chopped spinach into the oil. Flavor with garlic powder and a dash of salt. Stir to combine and let it cook for 5 minutes.
With considerate care, crack the eggs onto the pan. Enhance the flavor with dried rosemary, dried oregano, and the remaining salt. Leave for 5 more minutes to cook until set.
Turn off the heat. Serve with chopped red bell peppers or some kalamata olives.
