Good morning – welcome to your weekend!
I went the special friday breakfast route again this morning, and made Salsa & Scrambled Eggs!
All I did was crack 1 egg + 2 egg whites in a small bowl.
Add a dash of hot sauce – which I promise, doesn’t make the eggs hot it just gives them more flavor.
Whisk to combine…
And scramble in some non-stick spray!
FYI – I actually like to use the cheaper, $12-15 skillets you can get from places like Target. Since they’re more inexpensive, they’re thinner – which means they heat up faster and cook my eggs in less time!
I topped my eggs with some zesty, fresh salsa and served with a toasty 1st National Honey Wheat Bagel with a smidge of butter. Friday’s don’t start off better than this!
I used Graddy’s All-Natural Fresh Salsa on top of my eggs.
I don’t think I’ve ever had straight up eggs + salsa (well, maybe in a breakfast burrito or something) but Ben recommended I try it, and I’m so glad I did. It’s a really great combo!
A hot, buttery bagel was a great way to round out the meal.
I know I’m going to be wanting something sweet after this. You know me! Maybe I’ll stop by Starbuck’s on the way into work for a skinny vanilla latte. Hmmm…yes, I think I’ll have to do just that!
Well, that’s all she wrote for this morning. I’m rocking a half day at work today, so I’ll be back for lunch!
On the agenda for the afternoon:
- Get new tires
- Bank
- Deep clean kitchen
- Deep clean bathroom (ugh)
- Laundry
- Answer emails
- Work on blog
- Start sorting through Christmas decorations (!)
- Organize office
- Create grocery list for next week
- Prep dinner
That’s a loooong list for just one afternoon. I’m crossing my fingers that it least 1/3 of them happen!
Have a great morning everyone!

What would you do if you had today off?

We like to use the cheaper skillets for eggs, too – my hubby cooks them every day and the pans get beat up so quickly! If I had the day off, I would totally be finishing my decorating!
if i had the day off today, I would pick up the paint and paint the master bedroom! and try to find a wedding location.
But on the plus side my fiancé has banned all wedding things related for the weekend.
I would be on the couch with my blankie & cat! (I’m feeling a little under the weather today). I HATE cleaning the bathroom too! I like to baby powder myself & it flies everywhere!
I’m with you on egg pan!
I normally do eggs for dinner though… for some reason, I NEVER want them for breakfast… only when we go out for breakfast
sounds like a fun + busy day!
I would clean the house, do some baking, and prep some stuff I need to bring to a football party tomorrow! Sadly, that will all have to be done later
Actually, I do have today off–because my kiddo is sick. So I’m taking care of him and working one of my jobs from home when I can.
Though I’d recommend a jar salsa–called Mad Butcher and it’s made in Iowa. I know Fareway carries it in the Mexican foods section at their store–not quite as “fresh” but it’s quite good for a jar. I like Graddy’s a lot, too!
Have a great 1/2 day off! How was babysitting last night?
ive always been nervous about hot sauce, but i am going to trust you and put it in my eggs next time
Scrambled eggs sound delicious this morning after trying veganism
I would probably read one of the 3 magazines I’ve boughten and not gotten to
That bagel looks so yum!
If I had today off… I’d probably go see Blind Side. Haven’t seen a movie in forever and that one looks particularly good! Then I’d record a few songs or write some music, and go to the gym (won’t be able to go today). Oh all this after sleeping in really late since I’m quite deprived in that area of my life!
Hope you have an awesome half day off! Try and have a little fun somewhere
That is a super looking breakfast! I heart bagels and spicy eggs rock my world. Jealous!
90% of the time I put salsa on my eggs.
The weather is beautiful today in Des Moines. I want to go golfing this afternoon. And even better weather tomorrow for the Iowa game. Can’t wait to go. GO HAWKS!
I would get my car inspected and watch my soaps
Lucky you! I would LOVE to have today off.
Let’s see, I would have stayed out later with my friends last night and slept in this morning. Then I would have went for a run and read blogs and sipped on coffee. I would have cleaned my messy, messy apartment and done my huge pile of homework and freelance work and I would have spent some time napping.
Ahhh, it’s nice to dream isn’t it? Well, back to work! Haha
I have the whole day off! So far I’ve done laundry and a lot of cleaning and now some errands and then heading to a bookstore to read and grab a nice hot drink. YUM! Have a productive afternoon!
