When I was the pastry chef at Flour, breakfast consisted of warm muffins, croissants, scones, and any other fresh out of the oven item that might have been slightly overbaked, underbaked or broken.  God, it was wonderful....for my soul, not so much for my waistline.  I love breakfast, and I would choose a carby, sweet breakfast almost any day of the week.   But, I can't.  It just doesn't work for my health, and frankly, it doesn't really work for most people.  These days, I eat a lot of eggs.  I buy cage-free, no hormones or antibiotics added.  I'd love to always buy organic, but I think this is a good compromise.  Pictured here is my go-to, fertility-friendly breakfast.  I start with a handful of asparagus (high in folic acid and great for developing embryos; dry asted in a cast-iron pan.  I then saute several handfuls of baby kale with olive oil (heart, brain, and ovary-friendly fat) and garlic for my daily cruciferous veg intake.  The tastiest part is a 2 egg omelette, cooked in a steel pan with olive oil and filled with an ounce of goat cheese (lots of lean protein and a small taste of full-fat goat milk).  Today, I ate it for lunch.  As I was ravenously hungry, I snacked on 2 ounces of smoked salmon while I was waiting for my omega-3s from a low-mercury source.  The best smoked salmon around these parts comes from Standard Market in Westmont, though they are opening a new location in Naperville.  O delighted in the smoked salmon as well, happily gobbling up 3 tiny bowls full.
