Eggs Tapenade
Time: 5 minutes
3-5 eggs
3-5 tbsp tapenade
Tapenade is a rich olive spread. You can add it to many different dishes, but it works really well with eggs. Ilike the Cantare Mediterranean blend from Costco.
Simply scramble the eggs, then top with the tapenade. simple and tasty.
Zone info: 1 tbsp tapenade =about 21/2 blocks fat.
