Overnight Breakfast Oats

October 08|2015

Like my chia breakfast pudding this is another breakfast that needs only a short amount of time to prepare the night before. Once done you just leave it to soak overnight in the fridge and by breakfast time it’s ready to eat! Oats are a great source of slow releasing energy.  Instead of sugar I use grated apple and dried apricots to sweeten the oats, and the hint …

English Breakfast Frittata

September 17|2015

After a demanding week, I look forward to extra fuel to back up my energy levels and the best way to start is with a protein rich breakfast. I find I make this English Breakfast Frittata mostly at the weekends when I have a little extra time. I include the eggs, as the source of protein, mushrooms, which provide a selection of B-vitamins and tomatoes, for a vitamin C boost. I’ve …

Shakshuka

May 28|2015

This delicious, traditional Middle-Eastern recipe has it all. Baked eggs nestled in a bed of tangy and spicy tomatoes, red pepper, onions, smoked paprika with fresh flat leaf parsley scattered over the top. Perfectly more-ish with warm bread to mop up the juices. It’s so satisfying, I can’t decide whether it’s best for brunch, lunch or dinner. Making it all the more easy, you can …

Almond Milk

May 28|2015

I have to admit, yesterday was the first time I had actually ever made my own almond milk! I drink it most days as the main liquid ingredient in my morning smoothie, but usually I buy it in cartons. A friend of mine gave me a nut milk bag a year ago, and it sat dormant. Thanks to starting this blog, I am more motivated …

Simple Cereal Bowl

Cereal Mix Bowl

My favourite breakfast cereal is about the alchemy of mixing a combination of three together to get the best variety of cereal textures. Then I sprinkle on pine nuts, pumpkin seeds and berries for the extra flavour and health benefits. The three I use most at the moment are Fibre Flakes, Crispy Rice & Mesa Sunrise. These work well together but of course use your own selection to get your favourite creation.
