Cauliflower is my favorite vegetable. I like it raw and cooked in a plethora of ways. One of my absolute favorites is to roll it into a breakfast cup with an egg to make a delightfully warming winter breakfast. While visiting California this year I discovered my egg cups at Hotel del Coronado on Coronado Island near San Diego (bottom). The Sheerwater breakfast buffet is world-famous, the view from my table was gorgeous (see below) and I fell in love with the little Cauliflower Egg Cups they served while I was there. Yummy and superbly easy to prepare – I prefer the egg lightly done so that the yolk is still runny and functions as a bit of a sauce.
Above is the breakfast recipe – make half of it the night before when you have holiday guests then pop the cups in the oven with eggs in the morning and serve as a special treat this season. Anti-inflammatory, no dairy, no grain, no sugar, and ALL GOOD!
What a pleasure to find someone who idtenifies the issues so clearly
