Healthy + Satisfying Breakfasts
Breakfast is one of my favorite times of the day. I wake up and looking forward to fueling my body with a good meal + a cup of black coffee. I use a Keurig and buy pods from Whole Foods- the organic Italian roast is my absolute favorite. When it comes to breakfast food, I look for options that are healthy, satisfying, and filling without being too much- I love feeling energized from breakfast and not so full that I get sleepy again. Below are 7 ideas for a great first meal of the day. Enjoy! XO1. DNA Life Bar - this is Lo's absolute favorite in the roasted quinoa + chocolate flavor. It is a healthy choice, but according to Lo it tastes SO good. I have to give this a try!2. Hardboiled egg + half of an avocado- this is my go-to breakfast routine right now. I sprinkle a little pepper on the avocado and it is truly heavenly.3. Apple + 2 tablespoons of Almond Butter (Justin’s maple almond butter is my fave!) - Talk about YUM. You honestly can't beat that almond butter with an organic Honeyscrisp apple. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. This would also make a great mid-day snack.4. 2 scrambled eggs, spinach, and parmesan- This is so easy to make. Start scrambling the eggs, then throw in some spinach so it gets warm. Finish it with a sprinkling of parmesan cheese. Once the eggs are finished cooking, take off of the heat, serve, and enjoy!5. A cup of brown rice, 1 fried egg, and sauteed spinach (organic brown rice from Trader Joe's is so good and ready in minutes) That quick rice from TJ's makes this an easy morning option. Make the rice, fry an egg, sautee some spinach and mix it all together.6. Oatmeal + blueberries and strawberries (love this oatmeal from Trader Joe’s) If you love oatmeal and quinoa, you will love that product from TJ's. Add some fruit on top and you will have yourself a healthy morning treat.7. Greek yogurt with raspberries + walnuts (Wallaby greek yogurt from Whole Foods is a great choice) I am not a big yogurt fan, but my boyfriend is and he loves that yogurt from Whole Foods. Adding some nuts and fruit to the yogurt will make it a satisfying breakfast choice. Here's to starting each day on a tasty and healthy note!
