Beans and Greens: a Breakfast Variation

I love having grains ready to go in the fridge. 
This morning I just happened to have mashed white beans  and left over quinoa in my fridge. Having cooked grains on hand makes it so much easier to put together a hearty breakfast before you have to rush off to work. 

Breakfast Menu:


Beans and Greens on Toast
White beans, quinoa, alfalfa sprouts, mustard sprouts, sourdough bread, butter, salt
Tea
Bulk Earl Grey, water


White Beans, Quinoa, and Sprouts on Toast


Beans and Greens on Toast (5 minutes)
Slice, toast, and butter bread. Spread white beans on toast. Mine were mashed from the day before, but it really doesn't matter. Spread quinoa on the white beans. Generously add salt, mustard and alfalfa sprouts. Enjoy!

Earl Grey Tea (5 minutes)
All of my tea is bulk and loose. This batch is from Tao of Tea. Add tea to tea ball, and tea ball to hot water. Enjoy.
