Breakfast for a busy entrepreneur
Repetition and routine. It’s not always the most fun thing ever but it’s essential, as a self-employed gal, to stay on track and be productive. I try to mix up my schedule as much as I can. There’s one area where repetition and routine don’t bother me, and that’s breakfast. I use the same one pan, healthy and simple breakfast recipe darn near every morning!
I won’t lie and say the first thing I do is eat every morning, but instead, make a giant pot of coffee. I do believe breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so as soon as I have an initial cup of coffee and the brain fog has lifted, I head to the kitchen to make my healthy and simple breakfast.
I know that if you follow along on this blog and also on my Instagram then you know I get to eat at an enormous amount of breakfast and brunch spots, but when I’m not doing that, I’m at home making breakfast. I wanted to share with you my healthy and simple breakfast recipe that makes virtually no mess and takes less than 15 minutes to make and clean up because you’re cooking it all in one pan. Perfect for people on the go who need a power boost for the day or a boatload of kids to feed quickly!

What kind of eggs should you use for the one pan healthy & simple breakfast recipe?
My personal preference is eggs over hard but you can cook your eggs however you want! Scrambled eggs tend to make the pan a bit messy and stuck so if you make scrambled eggs, make sure you do that step last.
However, If you’re making this recipe for more than 2 people, scrambling the eggs will make it easier and faster because you can cook all of the eggs at once versus frying 3 at a time for each person. If you’re looking for runny eggs cook them over medium or over easy! I always use cage-free organic brown eggs from Sprouts.
What makes this recipe so healthy?
First off, organic, cage-eggs are full of protein and several kinds of vitamin B and don’t have antibiotics and hormones, which helps keep you healthier! All the nutrients in eggs give you a boost in the morning, sharpen your brain function, and keep your cholesterol low.
The organic super greens blend made with baby spinach, baby chard, and baby arugula, and organic butter from Sprouts are chock-full of nutrients like Vitamin K, A, D, Iron, C. Calcium, magnesium, and fiber that aids in decreasing inflammation, detox the body, skin health, oxygen production, and help with digestion (just to name a few benefits).
The tomatoes on the side also have a few health benefits. I always love tomatoes with just about anything so that’s why I added them to this recipe! Great sources of folate, vitamin K, and potassium, tomatoes are fabulous for reducing the risk of heart disease and promotes digestive health!

Is the one pan healthy and simple breakfast vegetarian?
Yes, this recipe is vegetarian! However, it is not vegan and couldn’t be based on the fact the main ingredient is eggs. You could substitute tofu or soyrizo for vegan options and use olive oil instead of butter.
How do I cook it all in one pan?
To cook everything in one pan, first butter the pan and cook your eggs. While the eggs are cooking, cut up your tomatoes. Once eggs are done to your liking, transfer them to your plate. Add some more butter to the pan and sautee your super greens for 2-3 minutes. Voila! You have an entire one pan healthy and simple breakfast in less than 15 minutes!
Can I add anything else?
Absolutely! You can add things like chicken sausages, which can also be cooked in the same pan or heated in the microwave on the plate you plan to eat your breakfast on while the rest of the food is cooking. You can also top your eggs and super greens with things like cheese or hot sauce. My personal favorite is green or chipotle Cholula sauce!
