1. Boil the potato slices in hot boiling water for 10 minutes.
Preheat your grill over medium heat. Add oil to a non-stick frying pan and sauté garlic and onion together for a few minutes, until softened.
Add in the Courgettes, season and continue cooking until they are light browned and softened, for about 5 minutes.
Next, add in drained potatoes and peas.
In a small bowl, whisk together pesto and eggs, season with a bit of pepper and salt, and pour over the veggies.
Cook until edges are done, for about 6-8 minutes, tilting the pan all around.
Sprinkle with cheese and grill until egg is cooked through and golden, for 5 minutes. Enjoy!

Notes: you can use different vegetable variations in this recipe, if you don’t like peas just omit them. This is a great high protein breakfast rich in calcium and vitamin D.
