In the fast-paced world we live in, breakfast often takes a backseat to the hustle and bustle of daily life. However, you know what they say—it’s the most important meal of the day! We can’t overstate the importance of a balanced breakfast, which should give your body ample nutrients to take on the day ahead.
In a breakfast rut? Look no further than a bean-forward recipe dietitian Steph Grasso recently shared on TikTok. Not only is it healthy, but it’s also delicious. Grasso says she craves it as soon as she wakes up, and the comments confirm that it’s totally crave-worthy. Find all the details below.
@stephgrassodietitian The way I crave this as soon as I wake up #beans #fiber #yearofthefiber #dietitian original sound – Steph Grasso, MS, RD
Dietitian-approved high-fiber, high-protein breakfast.
Grasso’s high-protein, high-fiber breakfast proves that wholesome eating can be both simple and sensational. At the heart of her breakfast creation? Beans–a humble yet mighty ingredient packed with protein, fiber, and an array of health benefits. As Grasso demonstrates, these legumes serve as the perfect foundation for a satisfying morning meal that not only satisfies your taste buds but also nourishes your body from within.
First, Grasso instructs, “Make sure to wash your beans.” After this, she adds her beans to a pan, and, in her words, “seasons the heck out of them” using Trader Joe’s Green Goddess seasoning, along with salt and pepper. (Shoutout to TJ’s for all of those tasty blends!)
“Then we’re going to add canned diced tomatoes with the juices,” she continues. “I’m using about half a can.” From there, she says, you should make a well, add in your eggs to the middle, and “let her cook.”
But it doesn't stop there! Grasso also adds sauerkraut to the mix for an extra dose of gut-friendly probiotics. When complete, the breakfast certainly looks delicious. But beyond that, it offers great nutritional value. Grasso points out the impressive health benefits, noting that it packs in twenty-six grams of protein, fifteen grams of fiber.
"I can eat this whole thing in one sitting," she raves. "Cheers to the year of the bean!"
Cheers, indeed! In the comments, fans are singing praise for this healthy, tasty meal:
"This look so good!" wrote one user.
"This has changed my life," another wrote.
"I was really skeptical but now I've eaten it 4 days in a row!" someone else said. Okay, we're convinced!
