Healthy breakfast ideas

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day as it boosts your metabolism and get your body and brain ready to tackle your day. It is important not skipping breakfast if you want to keep a healthy body or control your weight. Having a good breakfast in the morning will make you feel so fresh so keen! A good and healthy breakfast should include three out of the four food groups (whole-grain bread, whole grain cereals, eggs, milk, yogurt and fruits are always good options).

As breakfast is my favourite meal of the day I am always trying to create some healthy tasty, original and quick recipes. Today I am sharing five of my breakfast recipes. All recipes are easy to make, not time consuming (except maybe for the crepes) delicious and nutritious at the same time. So let's get started with those five healthy breakfast ideas!

First of all, three days a week I start my day with a big glass of warm water in which I add half the juice of a lemon. This is a great antioxidant, good for the skin and helps digestion. 

• Healthy crepes.

No need to give a long explanation, these are just the delicious french crepes turned into a healthy way. It's probably my favourite one and the naughtiest one as well.

All you have to do here is to mix some grounded oats and organic white flour into a bowl. Add an egg  and a table spoon of honey to the preparation then, pour some almond milk until you obtain a smooth and homogeneous consistency. You can also add a few drops of vanilla extract if you have. Make your crepes on a hot saucepan after spreading a tiny amount of coconut oil. 

• The booster.

This recipe is simply a delicious smoothie with a thicker consistency and some muesli on the top. It contains protein, calcium, and vitamins; everything you need to properly start your day. This breakfast will really boost your metabolism and give you a lot of energy. 

To make the smoothie you will need: 3 tbs of greek yogurt, a tbs of oats, orange juice, half a banana and some mix berries. All you have to do is to blend all the ingredients into a blender until you obtain a nice and smooth smoothie. Pour the smoothie into a bowl and add some muesli on the top. And tah-da; breakfast is served!

• Autumn  edition.

When the weather changes and it gets a little bit cooler I definitely need to find a breakfast dish that I can eat "warm" and this is what I am use to cook when autumn is pointing his noise. A nice scramble egg made simply by cracking an egg into a bowl with milk, salt and pepper. The mixture then goes onto a hot saucepan, and that is literally it! All I do afterwards is putting my scramble egg on a slice of toasted bread and add some cheese and spinach on the top. Trust me, it is de-li-cious!

• Lazy days.

The next recipe is called lazy days as it is literally the easiest and simplest one to realise. All I do is mix some whole-grain cereals with some dry fruits, oats and a few pieces of dark chocolate into a bowl. Pour in some milk, served myself a big glass of orange juice and done!

• Breakfast in a jar.

 The last recipe idea for today will be a breakfast on the go as you can prepare it the night before and carry it with you if you know you won't have time to have breakfast at home. It is simply layers of greek yogurt followed by some muesli and some raspberries on the top. You can of course change the fruits and dispose the layers differently according to your personal taste.
