I always try to load up on good stuff first thing in the morning. It's my way of setting eating habits straight for the day. Today I had oatmeal, a smoothie, and my daily cocktail. No, I'm not drinking alcohol at 8AM. It's a concoction I learned about from my Aunt Lisa. I was also eager to try my mother's oatmeal and flaxseed idea, as flaxseed is a new ingredient to me.
Hearty Healthy Oatmeal
1 cup water
1/2 cup oatmeal
1/4 flaxseed meal
1 tbsp raw honey
soy milk
Mix water, oatmeal, and flaxseed meal in a microwave safe bowl. Heat for 1 1/2 minutes. Stir in honey and a splash of soy milk. You can use Vanilla Silk for extra flavor. Top with fresh fruit if you like.
Fruit and Spinach Smoothie
1 package (16oz) frozen mixed fruit (your choice)
1 package (9oz) frozen spinach
1 cup of vanilla flavored yogurt
Poor into a blender and puree. This will make two drinks. You can save one for the next day.
Anti-Inflammatory Cocktail
1 tbsp raw organic honey
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
glass of water
Mix it all together in a glass and drink up.
I hope you enjoy these quick breakfast recipes. The little man just woke up from a morning snooze, so it's back to mommy land for me.
