Turkish Brekkie

< 1 min read

Having some hard-boiled eggs on hand in the fridge will make our Turkish Brunch even easier to prepare. While watermelon has fewer carbohydrates than blueberries per 100g, be mindful of the quantity as it’s an easy fruit to overconsume.

  • Assemble all the ingredients on a plate and enjoy!

Notes

Tip: Add some more cheese or ham for extra protein and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil if you prefer.
