Some vegetarian breakfast recipes to get the day started. While many good breakfasts are naturally vegetarian, I wanted to share some of my favourite options.
Muesli is my number one choice for a healthy breakfast and for a vegan breakfast. Mixing your own is definitely the best option both for taste and health.
And once you've mixed up a batch, you'll have all of the speed and convenience of opening a box and pouring your breakfast into a bowl every morning.
I've tried a lot of muesli recipes but this one is unbeatable.
My husband used to actually sell this muesli mix at farmers' markets and it was always in huge demand. Our muesli and granola were so popular, many local customers used to buy in bulk and mail bags to relatives.
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 or Oatmeal is one of my absolute favourite vegetarian 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.
Instead of the traditional oats, try a healthy quinoa breakfast porridge as a tasty alternative. Use quinoa flakes or regular quinoa.
With smoothies, there are probably a limitless number of combinations you can try. I've included a few specific recipes below but if you feel like getting creative, I've laid out a basic recipe with tips and ratios to use. The rest is up to you.
Three quick and easy smoothie recipes to get you started. There's blueberry, strawberry and kiwi and pomegranate.
Here's a yummy strawberry banana smoothie recipe, probably the most universally popular of all smoothies - a safe bet for adults and children.
How about a delicious dairy free blueberry smoothie with added fibre?

Almond milk makes a creamy and nutritious, vegan alternative to regular milk. Good as a drink on its own or as an ingredient in many vegetarian breakfast recipes. For the best flavour, make your own. Here's the recipe...
The original vegetarian sausage, there's nothing fake about Glamorgan sausages. Simple and delicious without a trace of soy protein or anything unpronounceable. Cook them up with some tomatoes, mushrooms and eggs for a weekend treat.
A rich and flavoursome whole wheat loaf. This is an especially good bread recipe to try if you are new to baking bread because it is also incredibly straight-forward.

These are Dan Lepard's delicious Weetabix breakfast muffins.
An easy and versatile Irish soda bread recipe, perfect for breakfast. The oats lend a delicious flavour and texture and a lovely rustic appearance.
These are wonderful to eat while still warm from the oven with plenty of butter. One of my favourite weekend breakfasts.
