Breakfast Tacos with Sea-Chi.

Warm flour tortillas packed with cheddar cheese, organic eggs, black beans, avocado slices and sea-chi (kimchi made with kelp … aka seaweed … from Maine … it’s incredible!). Breakfast (or brunch!) never looked so good.

Thanks to my friends at Atlantic Sea Farms for sponsoring this post and thanks to you, my readers, for supporting brands that help keep JennySheaRawn running. As always, all opinions are my own.

These nutrient dense breakfast tacos are:

  • Rich in satiating protein
  • Rich in digestive health promoting fiber
  • Rich in heart smart monounsaturated fats
  • Rich in gut health promoting probiotics (beneficial bacteria)
  • Provide vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients

These tacos are on our breakfast or brunch menu every Saturday and Sunday. But … don’t stop there, as they’re easy and quick enough for busy weekday mornings. The Sea-Chi (kimchi made with seaweed) is the star in these tacos.

What is kimchi?

Kimchi is a fermented Korean dish – typically combining cabbage, fish sauce, ginger, garlic, chili peppers, salt and sometimes other vegetables. It can be used as a side dish, ingredient, condiment – or straight out of the jar. It’s salty, briny, crunchy and sweet with a bit of heat. It’s fabulously addictive!

This particular kimchi from Atlantic Sea Farms (more on those incredible folks below), called Sea-Chi, is made with raw kelp (from the clean, cold waters of Maine), napa cabbage, daikon radish, salt, garlic, red pepper powder, scallions, sugar, fish sauce, ginger and onion.

Have you tried kimchi?

Atlantic Sea Farms creates incredible tasting and innovative products (this Sea-Chi, along with Seaweed Salad, Sea-Beet Kraut, Ready Cut Kelp and Kelp Cubes) from rope-grown Maine kelp. Their kelp is never dyed and never dried. You know that florescent green seaweed salad you get at your local sushi restaurant? Yep, that’s dyed and imported – 98% of the edible seaweed on the market is imported. It won’t be long though before the Atlantic Sea Farms products are mainstays in households and restaurants across the country.
