Chef notes
Eggs are packed with protein and much-needed nutrients, making them a great addition to any morning meal. Sometimes, however, what comes with this those eggs isn't as good for us. Instead of enjoying eggs on a cheesy, fully-loaded sandwich from a fast-food chain, try mixing it up with this flavorful breakfast salad. Spicy red onions are the perfect complement to the richness of eggs.
