Turmeric Scrambled Eggs

Turmeric Scrambled Eggs

I find that having 2 eggs for breakfast sets me up with enough energy to get through to lunch without any dreaded hunger pains. With turmeric for its anti-inflammatory and digestive benefits and added goodness from the vegetables, this breakfast is one of my favorites.

You can even eat it for lunch or dinner, just add a tin of tuna and some extra green veggies to make it into a substantial meal.

It's also dairy free and gluten free and the ingredients per serving size are also low FODMAP friendly (in line with the Monash University Low FODMAP App at the time of writing).
