Homemade
I've never been a huge fan of breakfast.
I'm usually of those people who doesn't eat until at least midday when I'll have a light lunch/brunch of beans of toast, soup etc.
Last weekend my Blogger buddy Amanda Bootes popped on the train from Kent to visit me in my New House in the Rutland Countryside.
Both massive foodies, we decided to change our thoughts on breakfast (which we're both not hugely keen on) with a selection of ingredients, and oh my! wasn't the result extra tasty.
HOW TO MAKE?
Homemade Guacamole and Hummus with Scrambled Egg on Toast.
Ingredients:
Serves 1
For the Guacamole:
1 x Avocado
Sprinkle of chopped Basil
Diced Garlic
Diced Red Onion
Squeeze of Lemon
Squeeze of Lime
Salt & Pepper
for the Hummus
Half a can of Chickpeas
2 tbsp of Lemon Juice
2 x Garlic Cloves (Crushed)
Salt
4 tbsp of Water
2 tbsp of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Toppings:
2 x Sliced of Wholemeal Bread
2/3 x Eggs

1.
Cut and mush one avocado in a bowl with a squeeze of a lemon and a lime, quarter of a onion (diced), with half a clove of garlic (diced), a sprinkle of chopped basil and finished with a seasoning of salt and pepper.
2.

Spread the Guacamole and Hummus onto the toast, before adding the scrambled egg and a sprinkle of fresh spinach with extra salt and pepper if desired, and enjoy!

I've been so desperate to try Courgetti for such a long time since I've heard about it hear there and everywhere.
However, I didn't want to spend £29.99 on a Sprializer or spend ages cutting Courgette into teeny tiny slices. So I found the perfect little kitchen accessory for creating Courgetti and it was only £4.99 from eBay.
Once my Veggetti Vegetable Sharpener arrived I couldn't wait to create a New Courgetti Recipe for my first Courgetti experience.
So, I thought I'd make my Healthy Homemade Basil, Watercress, Rocket and Pine Nut Courgetti.
Recipe Bellow!
Ingredients:
1 Courgette
1 Handful of Basil
1 Handful of Watercress
1 Handful of Rocket
2 Handfuls of Pine Nuts
100ml Water
Step 1:
Blend the Basil, Watercress, Rocket and 1 Handful Pine Nuts in a Blender or anything you have to combine the ingredients into a paste/liquid.
I use my Breville Blend Active Blender which is such a handy accessory for blending anything and everything. I use it all the time for pesto or pastes.
Step 2:
Sharpen your Courgette with the Veggetti Vegetable Sharpener and place into a Pan.
Step 3:
Pour Pesto Over the Courgetti and stir together in the Pan until it's all coated.
The Add the last Handful of Pine Nuts into the Pan too.
Step 4:
Heat everything in the Pan on the Hob for 5 Minutes.
Ensuring you don't over cook or the Courgette will go mushy.
Step 5:
Once Cooked Pop into a Bowl
...and Eat!
