  • Eggs can be cooked soft, medium, or hard depending on preference.
  • Swap chicken with chickpeas, tofu, or beans for a vegetarian option.
  • Keep avocado and yogurt separate if storing to maintain freshness.
  • Season lightly before serving, especially if reheating pre-cooked ingredients.
  • Portion ingredients ahead of time for quick grab-and-go breakfasts.
