4 Tips to Build a Better Breakfast

/

It’s no secret that breakfast is my favorite meal of the day! I could literally eat it all day long.

What most people don’t realize is that many popular breakfast foods are loaded with sugar, processed foods and unnecessary ingredients.

Instead of relying on your breakfast to come from a box or the freezer (cringe!) build it yourself.

I promise that building your breakfast is more satisfying, more filling and tastes way better!

4 Tips to Build a Better Breakfast

  • Eat real food… no processed foods, no fast food, real whole foods and ingredients

  • Protein… clean lean protein to fuel your morning

  • Fiber… will keep you full and energized for the day ahead

  • Real sugar only… no added sugars, stick to fruit or a drizzle of honey at most

My current favorite breakfast is a yogurt bowl with coconut yogurt, fruit, hemp hearts, flaxseeds, chia seeds, and a drizzle of local honey!


How to Make my Avocado Egg Sandwich

/

This has been my Husband’s go-to breakfast of late! It’s so yummy and such a great blend of healthy fat, fiber & protein I had to share the recipe with all of you!

We prefer to eat this sandwich open face, and it actually tricks the mind into thinking we’re eating more than we really are! The fiber and healthy fats from the avocado, along with the protein from the eggs will keep you fueled for a busy day ahead!

Avocado Egg Sandwich

Ingredients:

2 Slices of Ezekiel Bread (or bread of your choice)

1 Ripe Avocado

3 Eggs

1/2 Lemon

Manitoba Hemp Hearts

Salt & Pepper to taste


Directions:

Toast your bread, wash and prep avocado.

Using a spoon take the ripe insides out of the avocado shell (removing the seed) and place half on each piece of toast. Mash avocado on toast with a fork, then squeeze a bit of lemon on the avocado for brightness!

On medium-low heat cook 1 whole egg and 2 egg whites, until cook through. Stir often so eggs become fluffy and well scrambled.

Add scrambled eggs to avocado, half on each slice of toast.

Sprinkle hep hearts of top of your eggs, and add salt & pepper to taste if desired.

Enjoy!
