Eggs Fajita Breakfast Skillet (gluten free, paleo-ish, healthy-ish)

Jump to Recipe

Perfect for a weekend brunch, a Mexican inspired one pan Eggs Fajita Breakfast Skillet.

It’s been one month here in California. I arrived here positive and feeling so prepared, but the next day I wanted to go back home.
Eggs Fajita Skillet Eggs

The first two weeks were rough, I was all over the place. One day I was happy, the next day I was sad, one day I was excited, the next day I was moody. My poor hubby had to put up with all my tantrums.

 
Life here consists of sunset walks on the beach and grocery store hauls. Although I’m so grateful for this life, every now and then I miss the sounds of sirens and city life. I miss my family and friends. I miss home.

 
Despite being so far away, it’s hard to dislike a place that offers so much beauty and serenity, and as a result everyone seems to be so friendly and happy.
 
Each sunset is uniquely beautiful and in fact some days are better than others. Furthermore, the weather has been great and I realize how lucky I am to be living in Southern California.

 
In retrospect, I feel silly for being so terrified moving out of the New York area, and more often than not, change can be a good thing.
 
And that pretty much sums up my month in SoCal. I’m leaving you with this delicious, healthy-ish, paleo-ish, gluten free Eggs Fajita Breakfast Skillet. Serve this delicious brunch dish with chips, or in a taco, or just as is.

PANEER TIKKA QUESADILLAS are mouthwatering! Here's PANEER TIKKA QUESADILLAS are mouthwatering! Here's an Indo-Fusion dish you will love! I made a delicious marinade for the paneer and sauteed it along with the veggies. Assemble your whole wheat quesadillas and cook until the cheese has melted. The best part about this dish is my "special taco sauce" which complements these quesadillas perfectly. ⁠

Happy Mother’s Day to all you moms who show up s Happy Mother’s Day to all you moms who show up selflessly every single day. Also, a happy mothers day to all of you who want to be moms. ❤️  This is the most challenging role of my life, but the journey is totally worth it. Krish has made me a stronger and happier person. He gives new meaning to my life.  And lastly, my kid couldn’t give me one nice picture of us in Hawaii… there’s either someone in the back or he’s making a face or he just wants to get away. He just can’t sit still for a minute… and with that a Happy Mother’s Day to me! 🥰

Vacationing with a kid has been a completely diffe Vacationing with a kid has been a completely different experience. While it’s nice to spend time as a family, dinners can get tough with a baby. Sanjiv and I enjoyed a romantic evening at House Without A Key in peace because Krish “thankfully” fell asleep (he was behind us I promise… swipe). It was so nice to converse with my better half over live music + cocktails, delicious food, and the BEST coconut cake (last pic). A memorable meal and evening! ❤️ #mylove

Aloha 🤙! Our first family trip! We made it to H Aloha 🤙! Our first family trip! We made it to Hawaii safe and sound, and Krish was pretty good on the plane. It’s my first time in Hawaii and I’m loving Waikiki… the beach, food, window shopping, and city life. I love being able to walk everywhere. It’s the perfect amount of action and relaxation for me. This is totally my kinda vacation 😎!  Krish has been loving all the people-watching… something he doesn’t do much of back home. He’s been flexible and has pretty much adjusted to our schedule. Thank you 🙏🏼 guys for all the food recommendations (Duke’s Hula Pie) and tips on traveling with a toddler. I can’t thank you all enough. ❤️ #myworld
