Healthy
Breakfast Recipes To Feel Good
All Day Long
Here are some healthy breakfast recipes to suit you, whatever your mood
or time constraints.
We all know how important it is to eat a healthy breakfast.
If you want to feel good, it’s vital to eat a breakfast that provides a
slow and sustained release of sugar into the bloodstream. Too many
carbs will get you off to a sluggish start and a breakfast high in
refined sugar is not going to sustain you until lunchtime, so processed
cereals generally fall far short of providing healthy breakfasts.
I understand that it is hard to beat the speed and convenience of
opening a box and pouring your breakfast into a bowl but with a little
forward planning and a good vegetarian breakfast recipe, you can still
have that convenience everyday.
Take a look at some of the healthy breakfast recipes below.
I've also included some weekend treats that are still homemade and
wholesome.
Muesli
And Granola
Personally I’m a believer in being prepared (yes, I was a girl guide
though not a very good one) so I like to mix my own muesli and granola.
Muesli
is my number one choice for a healthy breakfast. It's also a great
vegan breakfast. When my husband and I ran a stall at a farmers’
market, we sold our cereal mixes to a rapturous audience! Our
muesli
and
granola
were so popular, many local customers used to buy in bulk and mail bags
to relatives. I have to say, it surprised me that people got so
enthusiastic about cereal. Well ok, I get excited about these things. I
just didn’t expect other people to. These days, we only mix cereals for
ourselves but I’m happy to share these healthy breakfast recipes for
free. I hope you get as much enjoyment from them as I do.
Porridge
And Oatmeal
Porridge? Oats? Oatmeal? Whatever you call it – I call it porridge -
it’s one of my absolute favourite easy breakfast recipes. What a bonus
that it is so good for you too. High in fibre, B vitamins and iron,
oats are also low in fat and are known to lower cholesterol. They are
also cheap and easy to prepare making them a definite superfood in my
book. My oatmeal recipes are also ones that my husband and I mixed for
our customers at the farmers’ markets. Check them out. There's a
delicious
cranberry and
brazil nut porridge. Or a mouth-watering
date and hazelnut porridge.
I have yet to meet someone who doesn’t love it.
Weekend
Breakfast
A full cooked breakfast is great for the occasional treat and there are
plenty of options for vegetarians. The usual eggs, mushrooms
and tomatoes can be made into something special if you add a
homemade vegetarian sausage
or two.
A
Baked Breakfast
Simple Irish Soda
Bread With Oats
An easy and versatile Irish soda bread recipe, perfect for breakfast.
The oats lend a delicious flavour and texture and a lovely rustic
appearance.
Wholewheat Cheese Scones
These are wonderful to eat while still warm from the oven with plenty
of butter. A lovely breakfast or tea-time treat.
