A classic Venezuelan breakfast includes scrambled eggs, black beans, grated white cheese and arepas. That's a classic at home! To make my life easier and to save some time in the kitchen, I prepare the beans during the week, for a lunch or dinner, and I freeze a serving for the weekend breakfast. That way, all I have to prepare are the eggs and arepas. To me, this is the best breakfast in the world... Try it!
