Top of the morning! Let's talk food, specifically the most important meal of the day - breakfast.
Does anybody have those specific meals they know how to make and it's one of the few meals they're confident in? I know for me I can make homemade lasagna, spicy vodka pasta, chili, jerk chicken wings, and a good cajun shrimp pasta. However, when it comes to breakfast I can usually slack and just do the usual grits, bacon, eggs, and toast. That can get old quick and honestly it's not that healthy even though I love me some cheese grits. To combat the days where I really want cheese grits but I know I should eat something better I decide to make either a breakfast salad or avocado toast.
The breakfast salad is made with:
Mixed greens
Sliced avocados
Bacon (preferably turkey bacon)
Grape tomatoes
Fried egg
Cucumbers
Croutons (if that's what you prefer)
The Avocado toast is made with:
Bread (best with whole grain or brioche)
Grape tomatoes
Feta cheese or bleu cheese
Scallions
Pink salt
I started to notice a difference in my day if I started out with a bit of breakfast. Even on the days I don't feel like making anything just eating a banana or some sort of fruit can really make a difference. I've recently been into making smoothies as well which is something I was really into during Covid shutdown. I've attached the link to a list of great smoothie recipes here. The main takeaway here is start your day off right with a nice bite to eat and see how it changes your day!
