The Sustainable Table: EcoMilf's Meagan Genovese Shares A Healthy, Mouth Watering Breakfast Recipe

Posted in 'Tips and Helpful Hints for Life, Work and the Home' on December 18, 2011, 8:57 pm
We asked wonderful EcoMILF founder and blogger Meagan Genovese to share her wisdom on running a green household, and will be featuring a series of blogs with her handy tips and ideas over the next few months. 

Meagan is first and foremost a mama to two gorgeous little ones, a wife, a green cleaner and vegetarian chef, a writer, a yoga teacher, an animal rights activist and creator of all things homemade. She enjoys shopping, vegan baking and her newfound hobbies- sewing, knitting and photography. You can find her playing hide and seek at the park, drawing with crayons, reading a book or feeding her newborn while sipping soy chai lattes and nibbling on Fairtrade chocolate.The Sustainable Table cookbook - recipes from Victorian sustainable producers and chefs

Today Meagan shares a mouth watering brunch recipe:
The Sustainable Table is a collection of recipes and stories from 
notable chefs, farmers, producers, winemakers, gardeners and everyday people who are reducing their impact on the environment by altering their food choices. These inspiring people eat seasonally, shop locally, buy organic, reduce food waste, purchase ethically and make backyards and public spaces productive. This book was gifted to me by a dear friend and remains one of my favourite when looking for simple yet satisfying home cooked meal ideas.

With two kids under 3 at home, full-time, a quiet moment to myself is A healthy breakfast recipe from The Sustainable Tablehard to find. But that is just what I had when I cooked this simple, elegant and sustainable brunch for 
myself before sitting down at the computer to get a bit of work done. I think this would also be a classy breakfast to serve to house guests over the holidays.
