Adelle Davis ones said “Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper.” I think this suits me quite well. I love breakfast and will get up 2 hours earlier to make it. Love making it look great and feel it brings me in a great mood for the day. If I don’t have time some cut up fruit with soy yogurt will do … plus quickly topped with some seeds.
Fruit Salad
- Cut up mixed fruit from what ever you have available.
- Soy Yogurt
Optional toppings:
1tbsp Flax seeds
1 tsp Chia Seeds (softened in hot water)
1 tbsp Goji Berry’s (softened in hot water)
Some crunched Nuts.
Healthy Flax Seed Pancakes
I just made this up and chucked a random amount in a blender but think it would be something like this:
- 1 tbsp Rolled Oats
- 1 tbsp Flax Seeds
- 1 tsp Chia Seeds
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Banana
- Mix in a blender.
- Put a pan on low heat and oil up with coconut oil.
- Poor batter to make small size pancakes one by one. (Makes about 5)
- Flip pancake when small bumbles appear.
Optional toppings:
Fruit
Goji Berry’s
Porridge
Now I get a bit of a swollen belly from this but some winter days it’s just a great start. I sometimes prepare some the
night before and can heat it up in the morning.
- Soy Milk, heat it up in a small pan.
- Rolled oats, just slightly below the milk line.
– Heat until it becomes thicker. - 1 tbsp Honey stirred trough if you like it sweet.
Optional Toppings
Fruit
Flax Seed
1tsp Chia Seeds
1tsp Goji Berry
2 Ingredients Pancake
When I figured this one out I was so excited! Healthy pancakes with only 2 ingredients! So easy, healthy and yummy. Also recon this would be great for kids.
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Banana
Mix with a fork.
Put pan on low heat and oil it with coconut oil.
Poor batter in pan and cover with lid so it will cook on both sides.
Overnight Oats
I just made this up last night but I’m sure you can find heaps of recipes online and make your own up.
I think I did something like this:
- 3 tbsp Rolled Oats
- 1 tbsp Chia Seeds
- 2 tsp Flax Seeds
- 1 tsp Goji Berry
- 3 tbsp Soy Yogurt
- 1 dash of apple juice
Few pieces of honey poached quince (This just because my mom made them the other day and I had some left. You could use any fruit really. Just add a dash of honey trough it as well cause I think it gave a nice sweetness to the oats.)
Few Blue Berry’s
Some Cinnamon.
Chai Tea Porridge
YUMMM APRILLL! I came up with a new way to make my porridge! I’ts winter here at the moment and I wanted something worm and filling. Yes I cant take oats that well but sometimes I just suck it up and take the belly bloat. hehe
I don’t know the right amount I used so just play with it. I did something like:
- 1 bag of Chai Tea
- Soy Milk
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 tsp Honey
- (rolled) Oats
- Chia seeds (you could leave it out but I mixed it trough while I cooked it)
- Heat up a sauce pan with Soy milk. Add 1tsp of Honey and Cinnamon.
- When its hot dip in the tea bag of Chai Tea and let it sit for a bit.
- Take out the bag of Tea and add the Oats (amount depends on how much Soy Milk you used) and the Chia Seeds.
I topped it with Blue Berry’s and Goji Berry’s and had it with a side of some fruit. Also it has been getting cold here so I made myself a mug of Ginger Tea to guard myself against the flu. Enjoy!
I WILL ADD MORE SOON!
