Michael Phelps -- Won't you share your eggs with me?

Doesn't this egg look like a mushroom? Tasty eggy mushroom.

I dreamt that I was eating breakfast with Michael Phelps.

He was dripping wet. He offered me pancakes with powdered sugar. Spaghetti. Soggy chips. Mashed potatoes with margarine, little slices of trans fats. I kept telling him about the amazing powers of whole foods. And there he was, keeping the eggs to himself. How fair is that? Giving away all the bad stuff and keeping the good for himself.

So, as soon as I woke up, I ran into the lab, hankering for an egg sandwich.

Ingredients
1-2 slices of whole grain bread
1 - 1/2 organic boiled egg
Lettuce (I used curly endive)
Vegenaise
Black Pepper
Laver seaweed

Toast laver on medium heat in a dry pan until it's crunchy. Combine ingredients on top of the slices of bread.

Very tasty. The salty and crunchy laver are a nice balance to the mushy egg and fresh greens.

Chocolate pudding: combine avocado with chocolate. Add honey.

Dip fruit into pudding, and dip into poppy seeds. Salivate. Munch. Enjoy.

Chocolate pudding came out grainy on the first try, but it was still very good.
