I’m Just Back from Holiday, and the Weather Here Is Fantasti

Name: I’m Just Back from Holiday, and the Weather Here Is Fantasti
Ingredients: As this is the time of year to buy good peaches, I have stocked up and frozen quite a few. If you wash your peaches (I use a mix of vinegar and bicarb), freeze them until they are solid and then grate them, you create a sorbet like texture which is like eating dessert at breakfast.; This is probably one of my healthiest breakfasts and also is a completely balanced plate. The addition of the frozen, grated peach adds another level of indulgence that is also cooling in this warm weather. I also added some pistachio nuts for crunch.; I try not to eat the same breakfast every day, but my favourite default, on repeat, breakfast is a cooling porridge of Kefir, Greek yogurt with milled flax and chia seeds.; I know I’m always banging on about the perfect plate, but this breakfast really is just that. It provides us with around 30 g of protein (essential in the morning to help us feel balanced, to manage our blood sugar levels and to keep us full up all morning) . It also contains around 10g of fibre from the chia, flaxseeds and the peach.; This breakfast is definitely worth a try, especially if you are someone who finds themselves getting hungry mid morning or awesome who is reaching for a sweet snack and a grown-up milkshake (a.k.a. latte grande) around 11.; Remember that a bowl of cereal is extremely low calorie, low in protein, low in fibre (mostly) and high and freely available carbohydrates. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that breakfast cereal may only fill us up for a couple of hours. Two Weetabix contain JUST 138 kcals, ONLY 4.8g of protein and ONLY 3.8g fibre.; It’s seriously no surprise that these breakfasts don’t fill us up and are not nutritionally balanced. We kid ourselves that they are high fibre and therefore good for us, but they are unlikely to sustain us and are not as balanced as we are led to believe. They conform part of a breakfast, but should not be the whole breakfast. I’ll do another post on this as it is quite an important topic. X❤️

As this is the time of year to buy good peaches, I have stocked up and frozen quite a few. If you wash your peaches (I use a mix of vinegar and bicarb), freeze them until they are solid and then grate them, you create a sorbet like texture which is like eating dessert at breakfast.

This is probably one of my healthiest breakfasts and also is a completely balanced plate. The addition of the frozen, grated peach adds another level of indulgence that is also cooling in this warm weather. I also added some pistachio nuts for crunch.

I try not to eat the same breakfast every day, but my favourite default, on repeat, breakfast is a cooling porridge of Kefir, Greek yogurt with milled flax and chia seeds.
