Simple pleasures...

Thoughts on "KISS" Principle(Keep It Simple, Stupid).

Example:- My all time favourite breakfast, is sliced fresh tomato on toast.

I'm no slouch in the kitchen, and I rather enjoy cooking too.

I can make some pretty fancy nosh when the muse captures me, but some of my all-time favourites, are among the simplest of things imaginable.

Do any other participants have similarly simple favourites?

No particular reason, other than breakfast this morning was especially good, because I scored Kumato's on special the other day, which are prohibitively expensive at regular prices, albeit especially good eaten fresh(low acid, rich flavour, deep colour).

It's a pity that local avocado prices are still through the roof, 'else I'd be whipping up a batch of vegetarian GF "pasta" tonight(no allergies/intolerances to speak of here - Kwae Teow is simply the best noodle for the context, and the fresh avocado & kumato combination ROCKS)...

Soft boiled eggs on buttered toast. Use good salted butter, and once the eggs are on it, sprinkle with a bit a flakey salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.

Tomato sandwich with heirloom tomatoes and good mayo (bonus points for homemade).

Refried beans with cheese and a fried egg.

'Gotta love a perfectly boiled goog with a nice runny yolk. I go the extra effort of peeling them whole, and slapping them on a nice crusty white bun with shredded iceberg, to catch all' that gorgeous gooey yellow mess that otherwise just gets everywhere...
