Happy Monday Everyone!

First I need to start by saying how the heck is it May already. Where has this year gone too it was just yesterday that the fireworks were going off and we were celebrating New Years. When you were a kid in a school each year felt like 10 years and now I blink and 2 months have gone by

Either way this year has been pretty great. We officially got our residency in Bonaire which as you have heard me talk about before is pretty much the greatest place on Earth. We are in full house hunting mode and have seen almost every single house for sale on the island. Its a small island and its not like there is a ton for sale so we decided just to see them all. It’s a toss up between two houses and they could not be anymore different from each other. So hopefully we can make a decision and move in soon. I have not had a “house” to live in in 8 years and the reason I put house in quotation marks is because our boat is technically our house but it’s not a house. Hopefully that makes sense

But enough about the house for now lets talk a little about how fantastically epic and delicious this breakfast / brunch / lunch is and how easy it is to make

There can be no excuse not to make this all the time no matter how pressed on time you are because it comes together so easily and well under 30 minutes. Plus its super impressive to serve to people and looks like it takes way more effort then it does. Think about it …..

1. Cut a croissant in half (soooooooo easy)
2. Sauté some mushrooms (easy)
3. Fry and Egg ….. easy right
4. Make a quick tomato salsa ….. yup even easier

See no excuses and look how beautiful it looks

I also have this strange feeling that if you shaved a couple truffles on top this dish would literally be over the top amazing. I personally can not get any here but if anyone wants to send me some I would not complain

This is completely off topic but I still remember when we were in Rome and went to dinner and ordered a steak with Truffles and the waiter came, dropped off the steak and proceeded to shave an entire truffle on top. My jaw was literally on the floor I had never experienced anything like that in my life. And just when I thought there is no way he could put anymore truffle on it he asked “Would you like anymore.” I don’t think that I need to tell you that YES I did indeed fact say more please

Lets talk about why this dish is going to amaze you beyond belief

1. Incredible Flavour
2. Egg Yolk (Need I say more!)
3. Umami Rich Mushrooms
4. Indulgent croissant
5. Less than 30 minutes to make

It’s actually funny because I truly enjoy making breakfast but I don’t like eating it that much. I have never been that big of a breakfast person because I never feel that hungry in the morning but love making it for people

Oh and Joerg if you are reading this I hope that you come down soon so that I can make this for you again

I hope that everyone is enjoying this Monday. It is a holiday here and feels like a complete ghost town so I am going to kick my feet up in the sand, go for a swim and then tonight …. Shrimp boil.

Also, literally as I typed “It feels like a ghost town” a freaking parade rolls by

Ohhhhhh Bonaire just full of surprises all the time
