Easy Like Sunday Morning

 

Scrambled eggs alone don’t seem so luxurious – but when served with an avocado salsa, spiked with the flavours of basil, tomato and spring onion, they are super decadent. So simple to make, and as the song says, so easy like Sunday morning … 

I like to cook the eggs in just a little coconut oil and serve a little low-sugar ketchup or chilli sauce alongside, but you choose. They are perfect for Sunday morning breakfast, brunch or a light meal any time.
