Seamus Mullen posted a tip for making this 7-minute egg perfection on instagram a few days ago, and after listening to him on the Rich Roll podcast yesterday I was inspired to make ’em. I put ’em on top of a kale salad with shallots and leeks that had been cooked in ghee and hot sauce.

Perfection, indeed.

But let’s back up to the podcast for a second. If you or anyone you know/love is dealing with a medical condition, struggling in a bad cycle of pain > medication > helplessness, etc… have a listen. Seamus and Rich both know a lot about health and wellness and overcoming disease, and it’s not only inspiring to hear their stories, but you’ll probably learn a thing or two as well. I know I did.

Now, to make the eggs!

Boil a pot of water, drop your eggs in, set a timer for 7 minutes, then plunge into a bowl of ice.

Done. Perfect gooey yolks.

Gluten- and guilt-free! I like this combination of vegetables, but you can easily throw in whatever you have in the fridge — zucchini, carrots, spinach, go crazy! — and it’ll be just as perfect.

We ate it with a piece of fish on the side, but you could easily toss shrimp, chicken or tofu in the pan and mix/cook it altogether. Don’t forget to drizzle it with sesame oil — just a touch — and you’ll feel like you’re having dinner in your local Chinese restaurant.

I adapted this recipe from the always dependable Love & Lemons… and the best part? It tastes even better the next day as leftovers. Throw it in tupperware, bring it to work, and get ready to make some colleagues very jealous.

avocado toast thru camera

brooke thru cameraIt’s time for episode 9 of TV Dinner on ulive and I saved the best for last. (Last one just for now, not to worry.) My friend Brooke Hammerling came over and I made my favorite post-workout meal: avocado toast with an egg on top.

Brooke runs Brew PR, a firm she founded to provide media relations to cool tech companies. Among other things, she’s also a big supporter of charity: water. I don’t need to tell you that she, just like the rest of us, is busy. It’s hard enough to find the time to workout; who wants to come home and start slaving over the stove after? Not me. Not Brooke. And I’m guessing not you, either.

Avocado toast with an egg on top is not only the fastest, easiest meal to make, but it packs the necessary 1-2 protein-carb punch that your body needs post-workout. Win – Win. Time to get familiar with it.

And like I said, this is the last episode of TV Dinner — for now — but I have a Valentine’s Day special coming in a few months. And until then, you can catch up on the other 8 episodes and recipes. Be sure to let me know if you make any of them and how they turn out.

Hope you had as much fun watching as I did makin ’em!
