This brunch bowl combines fresh greens with all of your favorite savory breakfast flavors. Wildly delicious and greatly customizable, this breakfast salad is my new favorite way to brunch.

Why you will love these breakfast bowls

A brunch bowl is really more of a method than a recipe. It's all about building your own salad with the flavors you love. It's a great way to use up what's in your fridge, so the options are endless. If you want a meatless version, that's an option too.

This version is loaded with so many flavors and textures. It's really a party in a bowl! There's salty halloumi and creamy avocado; warm, roasted tomatoes with a crunchy topping; protein-packed eggs and herby bacon; and lots of fresh greens. A splash of champagne vinegar is the perfect finishing touch!

While there are several steps in these breakfast bowls, none of them are complicated. The bacon and tomatoes can be roasted at the same time, and in the meantime, the other ingredients can be prepped.

Ingredients

This brunch bowl has a variety of my favorite flavors, but all of these ingredients are customizable.

greens - spring mix, baby spinach, and arugula are all great options.
bacon - oven-roast the bacon coated with fresh herbs for a punch of flavor.
tomatoes - roasted tomatoes stuffed with panko breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese bring a delicious twist to this salad.
eggs - anything goes... hard-boiled, soft-boiled, fried, poached, or even deviled.
halloumi - I love adding pan-seared halloumi, but goat cheese, blue cheese, and feta are delicious too!
avocado - a few slices of avocado adds a creamy texture.
dressing - dress the greens with a simple drizzle of oil and vinegar to allow all of the other flavors to shine.

Herb-roasted bacon

Making herb-roasted bacon is so easy and adds a punch of flavor. Arrange the bacon on a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil. Mince fresh herbs - such as sage, rosemary, and thyme - and rub all over the bacon slices. Season with black pepper and roast until brown and crisp. You can also try Spiced Rosemary Bacon for a sweet-savory vibe.

This bacon is incredible on a BLT sandwich. This recipe makes a double batch, so save the extra to add to sandwiches and salads... and brunch bowls.

Stuffed roasted tomatoes

Roasting tomatoes provides a unique twist on an otherwise basic salad ingredient. These tomatoes are easy to prep and can roast while the bacon cooks.

Slice the tomatoes in half and remove seeds and pulp. Stuff with a mixture of panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, thyme, and butter. Bake until the tomatoes are soft and the breadcrumb mixture is golden brown. These warm, stuffed tomatoes add an unexpected component to this brunch bowl.

Building the salad

To build your brunch bowl, start by filling a bowl with your favorite greens. Dress with a drizzle of oil and vinegar and toss lightly. Then, start adding and arranging the other ingredients. Let your inner artist shine! Garnish the eggs with everything bagel seasoning, if desired. I highly recommend finishing the breakfast bowls with a splash of vinegar. The acidity complements all of the ingredients so well.
