Slow Carb Eggs & Beans

om Tim Ferriss's popular slow-carb diet - a simple, effective eating framework built around legumes, protein, and vegetables while avoiding refined carbs and sugars. It's the kind of meal that keeps you full for hours without the mid-morning energy crash.

At its core, this dish pairs eggs cooked to your preference — whether fluffy scrambled, sunny side up, or over medium with a slightly runny yolk — with a hearty half-cup of lentils.

Alternatives

Lentils are a slow-carb staple, loaded with fiber, plant protein, and complex carbohydrates that digest slowly and keep blood sugar stable. If lentils aren't your thing, black beans, pinto beans, or black-eyed peas work just as well.

A pinch of salt, black pepper, and a generous spoonful of salsa bring the whole dish to life. A splash of hot sauce takes it over the top.

Refrigeration

Batch-cook this ahead of time and you've got a ready-made breakfast all week — just microwave for one minute (cover the bowl to contain any egg pops) and you're set.
