Millet with Pesto, Poached Eggs, Tomatoes, and Mushrooms
Pesto. Versatile. Delicious. And if you roll up your sleeves a bit you can make it out of just about anything. Unfortunately when I started making this dish, i didn’t realize I was out of pasta. So I improvised and used another grain - millet? Well, it worked. And once mixed together it became an interestingly delicious mix of egg, veggie, and pesto.
