Never Say Never

It’s a good rule of thumb to never say never. It’s right up there with “Goonies never say die!” And it keeps you from needing to master the art of eating your words or crow, for that matter. In the past I have said that I would never eat steak and eggs for breakfast.. it feels too macho or like “gotta get them gains, bro”… no offense to anyone seeking gains. I fully support bio-individuality AND gains. Just for me personally, steak at breakfast feels excessive. If not aggressive. Today I guess I felt different. I had these really adorable patty pan squash from F-Stop Farm and some of his rad marinara sauce calling to me. I decided to stuff the squash. I used a melon baller to core out the squash guts. I covered the squash cups (yeah we’ll call them cups) in ghee and a little salt then roasted them at 350 for about half an hour. While they were in the oven I took what I had scooped out and sautéed it up with diced potato, bell peppers (from my own garden), kale, basil, parsley, garlic shoots and.. left over steak. Who am I, bro? I filled the roasted squash cups with the steak and veg, put some of that marinara on it and sealed the deal with a poached egg. It was delicious. 10 out of 10 would stuff again. Every bite of this was grown in my zip code. That’s incredible. It made me feel like queen. * pinkies out *

Get inspired. Check out the story of F-Stop Farm. It will make you look at your yard in a completely different way. I promise.

So there you have it. Day 150: Steak and Eggs
