You won’t believe how fast and easy it is to make this caramelized mushroom breakfast bowl.

Whole30 breakfast ideas are big on protein and have lots of flavor.

Got about 15 minutes?  Then you can make this amazing breakfast! Just start by boiling your water with a bit of vinegar.

It will come to a boil while you start cooking the other parts of the dish in a nonstick pan. Cook the bacon first and allow it to drain on paper towels.Crisp bacon gets cooked first

Shallots and plump white mushrooms go into the same pan. (no need to add more oil!) Don’t crowd them.

The key to caramelized mushrooms is to let them brown and take on the oil. If you crowd them too much, they will steam and that is not what you are after.  Caramelize some mushrooms with garlic

Once the shallots are translucent and the mushrooms have caramelized, stir in some minced garlic, the grape tomatoes, and a big pan full of baby spinach.Add spinach and grape tomatoes to the mushrooms

By now the water will have boiled and you can add the eggs to poach softly for about 3-4 minutes while you build the breakfast bowl.

Layer over the vegetables first. They make a bed for everything else. Don’t they look amazing?Layer your vegetables first.
