@HungryChris  Your daily inclusion of vegetables at breakfast delights me. I have been trying to channel that. I am not a fruity person but happily eat veggies at any time. Keeping more quick pickled things around and making my salsa is good start. I'd love fried zucchini at breakfast but frying & I are not friends.

Inspired by @heidih's comment, breakfast was a two egg omelet and a medley of sautéed zucchini, sugar snaps and some sweet peppers (left over from making pizza last night). Fresh salsa goes without saying. I am a salsa freak!

 Thanks to a comment by @David Ross, I found this recipe.

 

 Omelet with ginger sauce served over shredded cabbage with some tomatoes and mayonnaise on the side.

 Yesterday, after many months, a new toy arrived.  This morning was its maiden voyage/shakedown.

 Egg and tomato over rice. @Shelby, look closely those tomatoes are peeled.

Eggs with bologna and kale.  Was aiming for frittata but ended up with things on top of eggs ;)

 

 Still looks good.  Well, except for the kale. You really did need to bury that.😂

Noooooo ... Kale is my favourite veggie by far. What I can’t wrap my head around, however, is how you can eat Kale that is still green with distinct leaves and has not been harvested half-frozen and boiled for hours with cured meat products. Maybe if you give the German version a go, you’ll fall in love with it as well. Especially in it’s ritualised version ...

That's quite interesting.

 

I studied German back in 8th grade, which is exactly the wrong time for a roomful of boys to hear any word that sounds like "fart."  :)

I am hoping that is pronounced 'daybrie', it just sounds so much more palatable.

How about day-bree or duh-bree?  For us folks on the gulf coast as long as it's meat scraps and gravy served on good bread we don't quibble about pronunciation😜

There's a lot of agriculture here in Ventura county and the other day a kale spill snarled traffic on an onramp to the 101 Fwy.    

Of course, I though immediately of you xD

 

Today's breakfast was a variation on the Avocado Toast with Smoked Whitefish from Shaya

fullsizeoutput_38e4.thumb.jpeg.7041be609d239a6f2c57e5506d62475c.jpeg

I used smoked trout instead of smoked whitefish and slices of a whole grain baguette instead of pumpernickel. 

Not a fan of biting into the pink peppercorns though, to be fair, they came from the tree at the end of my driveway so perhaps not the best source 🙃

Oh my! From a Brazilian pepper tree? I think they need ferment time. Fun though. Though discussed as toxic and invasive a local community has a foundation that celebrates it ?  http://ci.rolling-hills-estates.ca.us/community/pepper-tree-foundation

My power only extends to kale spills north of the 49th parallel.  The south I leave to other members of the sisterhood.  But I’m applauding on the sidelines.

No, not from a Brazilian pepper tree (Schinus terebinthifolius), though I do have annoying sprouts popping up here and there from that invasive one.

I harvested these from my Schinus molle, aka Peruvian pepper, California pepper.
