Ingredients

  • 2 cups frozen mixed berries
  • 1 cup lowfat vanilla yogurt
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 2 teaspoons honey, optional
  • 2 frozen ripe bananas
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh sage
  • 1 large clove garlic, minced
  • 1 small jalapeno pepper, minced with some seeds
  • 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
  • 3 large zucchini or yellow summer squash, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped roasted red pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley or cilantro
  • 8 large eggs
  • 4 slices whole wheat bread, toasted

Method

  • For the smoothies: Combine the berries, yogurt, orange juice, honey and bananas together in a blender, and puree until smooth.
  • Divide evenly among four glasses and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • For the "hash browns": Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the onions and cook, stirring, until soft and lightly browned, about 6 minutes.
  • Add the sage, garlic and jalapenos and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the vinegar, squash, 3/4 teaspoon salt and some pepper, and stir to combine.
  • Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the squash begins to soften, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Uncover and add the red pepper and half of the parsley.
  • Cook until the squash is completely soft and lightly brown, 6 to 8 minutes more.
  • Remove from the heat.
  • Make 8 small indentations in the squash with a measuring cup or the back of a ladle.
  • Crack the eggs into the indentations and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Return the pan to medium heat, cover and cook until the egg whites are set and the yolks are still runny, about 4 minutes.
  • Divide the "hash browns" and eggs evenly among four plates.
  • Serve each with a smoothie and 1 slice of toast.
