Don’t let the XO label keep you from trying this recipe—this wise, trimming Crossover is packed with wholesome ingredients that will fuel and nourish your body. With just two perfectly poached eggs, this bowl delivers a balanced combination of protein, healthy fats, and fiber, but it doesn’t quite reach Protein Nerd Level 3 requirements. If you need a higher protein boost, check the notes for easy ways to meet your goals without adding unnecessary density.
This dish brings together fluffy quinoa, the Cauli-Rice Hack or a tomato along with nutrient-rich greens, and perfectly seasoned eggs, all topped with a hint of heat and the optional tang of lacto-fermented sauerkraut for gut-loving benefits. It’s a simple yet satisfying meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, keeping you full, energized, and on track with your protein goals!
Poached Egg Quinoa Bowl
Description
Don’t avoid this recipe just because it is labeled an XO. It is a wise, trimming Crossover that will do your body all sorts of nourishing good. Using just 2 poached eggs, this bowl does not provide you with your Protein Nerd Level 3 amounts. It would take 4 whole eggs to do that, but for most of us, that is too much density, so check the notes for how to easily obtain enough protein for your Protein Nerd Level 3 needs. This bowl will be protein strong with just the right amount of density that you are looking for. This recipe is part of the Wisdom Recipe Collection.
Single Serve Recipe
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Lightly spray a healthy-style, non-stick medium-sized skillet with coconut or olive oil and set to medium heat. At the same time, fill a medium-sized saucepan to at least the ½ way mark with water, then set on high heat to boil.
-
Heat the Cauli Rice Hack (or tomatoes and spinach) and quinoa in the hot skillet. Toss well while heating. Once heated through, remove the skillet from the heat, cover with the lid, and push to the back of the stove.
-
Once the water boils in a saucepan, remove it from the heat and turn the stove burner off. Crack two eggs into the just-boiled water. Cover with a lid, then put the saucepan back on the burner. Allow the eggs to poach in the hot water for 5 minutes (this gives a nicely done but still soft in-center poached effect).
-
Transfer veggies and quinoa to a bowl. Top with poached eggs, and season them with Mineral Salt, black pepper, and optional cayenne and hot sauce.
-
If using sauerkraut, place it on one side of the bowl.
Note
Protein Nerd Notes
Two whole eggs only provide at most 14 grams of protein. You can easily get the rest of your Protein Nerd Level 3 requirements with a generous half serving of TH ESSENTIAL or one of our Optimized Protein Powders – perhaps try the Side Protein & Fiber Chocolate Milk or PYY Booster using an added tablespoon of TH Optimized Plant Protein along with 1 tablespoon of TH Optimized Whey Protein. Or you can use close to a full serving of TH Optimized Collagen. If you prefer a non-powder way to get the rest of your protein, you can fry the two eggs instead of poaching them and add another ½ cup of whites to the pan (using a spray of oil in the pan rather than ample butter since we already have some fat with the two egg yolks.)
Other Notes
Your body may do better with either ½ cup quinoa or the full ¾ cup serving. It all depends on where you are on your CLBM journey and how much soothing your adrenals need. You can try this recipe in different ways and assess which carb portions suit you best.
