My 30 days of cooking diary -> Day 11

 Today it was such a lazy day for me. When today morning I went to the kitchen I had no idea what to prepare. I thought to make some easy food. Then slowly ideas came to my mind.

The breakfast combo which, I made today, was good. It was kind of manageable. I had some leftover food which I used it in the morning, just to give a little rest to myself. I like egg related items. We can make so many dishes using egg. And these are easy to make and deliciously too. I hope, you would all like my today’s food menu.
