Ingredients
  

1 cup cooked quinoa

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain or flavored)

2 large eggs (poached or scrambled)

1/2 avocado, sliced

1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup black beans, rinsed and drained

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro (or parsley)

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional toppings: hot sauce, feta cheese, or nuts/seeds

Instructions
 

Begin by cooking the quinoa according to package instructions, generally about 15 minutes in a pot with 2 cups of water until fluffy. Set aside.

    While the quinoa cooks, prepare your eggs. You can poach them in simmering water for 3-4 minutes or scramble them in a non-stick pan until fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

      In a bowl, layer the cooked quinoa as the base.

        Top the quinoa with the Greek yogurt, followed by the cooked eggs.

          Arrange the avocado slices, cherry tomatoes, and black beans on top of the bowl for added flavors and colors.

            Drizzle olive oil over the entire bowl and sprinkle with fresh cilantro. Add additional salt and pepper to taste.

              Finish off with optional toppings like a dash of hot sauce, crumbled feta cheese, or a sprinkle of your favorite nuts/seeds for extra crunch and flavor.

                Serve immediately and enjoy your nutritious and satisfying breakfast!
