Greens and Bacon

by drpaul

A little bacon goes a long way when it’s used as a flavor component versus a major part of the dish. This breakfast, made with kale, spinach, chard, and broccoli, and which can easily be varied depending on what you have on hand, is extraordinarily high in phytonutrients, antioxidants and other micronutrients essential for health.

1/2 lb uncured bacon, cut into small pieces
1 cup kale, chopped
1 cup chard, chopped
1 cup packed fresh spinach
1 cup broccoli, chopped
1/2 leek, rinsed and chopped OR 1 large/2 medium shallots, chopped
3 tablespoons organic butter or coconut oil
2-4 organic eggs – optional
Optional: 1/2 cup grated raw cheddar cheese

  • Cook chopped bacon over low-medium heat until desired doneness
  • In separate medium sauce pan, melt butter over medium-low heat
  • Add chopped leeks (or shallots) and broccoli, cook, stirring for 3-4 minutes
  • Add kale, chard, and spinach
  • If desired, add eggs – don’t overcook eggs if adding
  • Add bacon and optional raw cheddar
  • Serve with Green Smoothie

Chili Omelet [video]

by drpaul

Having leftover chili accomplishes a lot – snacks, lunches, another dinner and, in this case, a great breakfast. 


2-3 tablespoons organic butter (or coconut oil)
2 organic eggs per person
Raw cheddar cheese – optional
Leftover chili, warmed

  • Beat eggs well in glass bowl
  • Warm leftover chili in small sauce pan
  • Melt butter in a medium stainless steel skillet over medium heat
  • When butter bubbles, pour eggs into center of pan
  • Using a rubber or flexible plastic spatula, gently lift edge of eggs and tilt pan to allow a small amount of liquid egg to pour under cooking egg (see video demonstration); REPEAT a few times to get all liquid from center
  • Once egg is cooked (= no liquid): spoon warmed chili over one edge of cooking egg
  • Top with optional shredded raw cheddar cheese
  • Gently fold half of egg over the side with chili
  • Serve with sliced apple

This is nutritious and delicious – as should be all of your meals!  If you’ve been intimidated about making omelets, watch this video – Dr. Paul makes it looks easy. Don’t forget to make your Green Smoothie to go with it.

1 cup chopped broccoli (even just stumps as the video shows)
1 medium to large shallot, chopped
Handful of spinach leaves

Perfect Breakfast – Part 2

by drpaul

Everything’s better with bacon – but you can’t eat bacon all the time for a variety of reasons. In this breakfast, bacon plays a supportive, flavoring role.

If you’re not used to eating salads with breakfast, start by making Green Smoothies, which are like a “salad in a cup”.  If green smoothies aren’t your thing, try having salad – it will surprise you how delicious they can be for breakfast.

  • Organic eggs, cooked however you prefer – this video show two eggs that were gently pan fried using Irish butter from pastured/grass fed cows (available at Trader Joe’s) – gently pan fried, meaning over low- medium heat
  • Salad greens (organic salad mix or red and green leaf lettuce, torn into small pieces)
  • Cucumber, quartered and sliced
  • Plum tomatoes
  • Simple Vinaigrette Dressing
  • Uncured bacon, chopped into pieces, then cooked to desired doneness
  • Green Smoothie:
    • 1/2 orange, peeled
    • 1 banana
    • 1/2 cup coconut water
    • 1/2 cup purified water
    • 1/4 cup frozen fruit (pineapple or berries)
    • kale, chard and spinach
    • Start with orange, banana and waters – blend until very liquidy THEN slowly add kale, chard, and spinach
    • Add frozen fruit at end to “soften” the bitterness of greens – but don’t overdo the fruit, this is a green vegetable smoothie, not a fruit smoothie

Broccoli Stumps and Eggs [video]

by drpaul

Yep, you’re reading that correctly – broccoli stumps. Instead of wasting that nutritious and fibrous part of the broccoli, chop it small and cook it briefly in butter or oil and it adds great nutrition to an egg dish (and I like the crunch; okay, I’m weird).  – Dr. Paul

1-2 organic eggs per person
Organic butter (or other high heat oil such as sesame, coconut, or grapeseed oil )
Broccoli stumps, chopped small
Shallot, onion or green onion (optional), chopped
Red or green salsa
Sea salt and/or fresh cracked black pepper
Optional: raw cheddar cheese

  • In a small to medium stainless steel skillet over medium heat, melt butter
  • Add broccoli, stir to cook for 2-3 minutes (longer if you want the broccoli softer, lower the flame to prevent burning butter as you cook it longer)
  • Add chopped shallot or onion, if using
  • Stir until eggs are cooked (no more liquid – don’t overcook)
  • Turn flame off
  • Add optional shreded raw cheddar cheese
  • Serve with optional red or green salsa and Green Smoothie
