    3. Place bread 🍞 crack egg in the middle
    4. Turn cook turn cook turn (press down with fork to fully cook inside if you hate runny eggs this will get them fully cooked)

    Back trying to give versatility so you can mix y match to your likings.

    Sweet salad 🥗 I like to call No Dressing Salad it’s moist enough you don’t need dressing so only add if addicted to it.

    1. Lettuce,spinach,mixed greens your choice your fav
    2. Diced into cubes 🎲 tomato 🍅, cucumber, sweet apple 🍎 (can leave out fruit if you hate that)
    3. Chicken or meat substitute or ham (I like grilled chicken)
    4. Spinach cook some in a frying pan to make moist add.
    5. Ready to eat or if want more can add nuts to more veggies even.
