Eggs, Beans, and Greens Nourish Meal
Enjoy this Nourish Meal as a savory breakfast, a quick lunch, or for dinner. The dressing and meal components make this such a versatile template to follow that it seems a bit silly to call this a recipe.
We use eggs in this recipe as the protein source, but you can also use tempeh or tofu if you’d like a vegan version. In addition, if you don’t have lettuces or dark leafy greens on hand, simply utilize any vegetable and prepare it how you enjoy it most (i.e. steamed, cooked, roasted, etc.) as the salad dressings go well with any non-starchy carbohydrate.
Additionally, use whatever bean variety you enjoy or have on hand — we used black beans for this recipe as pictured, but the possibilities are endless. One note about beans in this recipe is to utilize either already prepared/cooked dried beans or well-rinsed canned beans. Otherwise, if you’re cooking dried beans for this recipe in a traditional way, it will not be a quick recipe since the bean cooking time can be up to an hour. Another option is to use a pressure cooker or an instant pot to quickly cook dried beans.
The wonderful thing about our recipe philosophy at Nutrition Stripped is the flexibility and versatility! Use ingredients that you have readily accessible, try new foods as often as you can, add what you like and replace anything you don’t like.
