Breakfast Bowl
A breakfast I look forward to. You can mix and match with your favorite fruits and what’s in season (typically fresher, more flavorful, more nutrients, less expensive). Go for organic with the berries if you can (for any fruit or vegetable you eat the skin of, try to go for organic).
Ingredients
Rolled oats
Slow-digesting carbs and protein for lasting energy, plus fiber.
Blueberries
Berries are lower in sugar than some others fruits and support brain and heart health.
Blackberries
High in fiber and vitamins, support digestion.
Unsalted roasted pumpkin seeds
Little nutrient-dense powerhouses you can sprinkle on top. They’re high in magnesium, zinc, iron, healthy fats, and protein, and they also contain antioxidants that support heart, bone, and immune health.
Almond butter or peanut butter
1-2 tbsp will help balance out the carbs so your blood sugar levels are steady and you stay full for longer.
Cinnamon
Cinnamon tastes so good and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties — always welcome to the party.
Optional add-ons
Granola for extra crunch.
