When the boys were little we had Green Eggs for breakfast almost every day.
Green Eggs
I love this dish because it’s great to start the day with a nice dose of green vegetables, and the boys adored how bright these eggs are.
Green Eggs are also amazing because they’re a fun food that doesn’t contain any dye, but they still have a bright green color!
Breakfast Ideas That Are Easy
My favorite way to dress up these green eggs is with gluten free bread and avocado.
I toast a piece of my Recipe for Bread with Almond Flour, then, by adding half a sliced avocado to the plate I balance my protein with blood sugar-stabilizing fat. This superfood combination will start your day off right.
Recipe for Green Eggs and Ham
To make this a recipe for green eggs and ham, simply dice up leftover ham and throw it into the green eggs while you’re scrambling them.

Homemade Sausage Recipe
When I make Green Eggs, I serve them with the Breakfast Sausage on page 31 of my book, Paleo Cooking from Elana’s Pantry, and my Keto Bread.
We love all the fun of St. Patrick’s Day. We also adore Purim which usually falls around the same time.
My homemade gluten free Raspberry Hamantaschen recipe is made with an almond flour base and very lightly sweetened with honey.
The boys still ask me to make it every year for Purim!

The Green Eggs and Ham Story
Did you grow up loving Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss? I did, and in turn, I read this classic to the boys.
Like these breakfasts, it’s perfect for St. Patrick’s Day and all year round!
This post is an oldie but goodie from the archives, I first shared this Green Eggs recipe in 2011.

I made your “rye” bread for the 1st time last week- great bread! Nice to have alternatives to bread that are not only GF but also yeast free. Thanks
Elana says
Thanks KellyBelly!

Sounds delicious, not sure I can handle the green color though! Can’t wait for your Hamantaschen though!! Made them the other day, and they were a huge hit (well the few that I did not eat myself were ;) YUM!).
Elana says
Thanks Ali!
