Have you had salads for breakfasts? I love having breakfast salad and I have it often.
But it didn’t really look this way before because what I usually do is just chop everything and then dump them in one bowl.
You know what inspired this beautiful salad plate? My “Beets Appreciation Month”.
Yup, since I am trying to appreciate sugar beets and all it’s earthy goodness, I am incorporation beets into food which I think should have beets in them.
The colors that goes into this salad is just so inspiring, I decided I should plate it properly. Of course, this is a Canon moment and it deserves a photo! Heck, it even deserves some drumming! Bring out the Gibraltar Drums! heehee.. just kidding.
I think all my breakfast salads should look like this and that’s what I’m gonna do from now on.
It looks a lot more appetizing and it makes you want to eat salad every morning..
By the way, I love freshly cracked black pepper on my eggs. Do you?
What’s nice about this is you get to eat less salad dressing because when you break the egg, the liquid yolk pours out into the lettuce leaves and somehow serves as a dressing as well.
Have a great monday morning everyone! Eat something green today!

Cheers to that Dipti!
I’d never ever considered salad for breakfast until my first trip to Japan years ago. I nudged my husband and said, “Look, they’re eating salad – at 8am!”
This looks SO good!

Thanks Juliana! have a good one too!
I used to, when I grew up. Every breakfast, my mom made, egg, toasts or any kind of bread, and leafy salad with tomatoes. I really thought that’s how we eat breakfast until I came to the US and I rarely see any salad served in breakfast place! If you go to Japanese hotel, they actually serve salad for breakfast too… 😀 This looks delicious!

I don’t think I’ve ever had a salad for breakfast, but I love them for lunch or dinner. Yours looks good, and I’m really interested to give it a try. 🙂
Thanks Patty! You should try it even just to accompany the usual rice or bread.

Thanks Kim!
yum!! I like salads too. My husband used to joke around that I’m a rabbit because of my love for salads. Well, that’s just because he’s not a fan of them. He’s the old school fruit salad man. hehe
Cheers to us Camille!
