Breakfast Made Easy

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day... You've probably heard it over and over again. You probably think I'm crazy, but I'm going to say it's not true! Every meal is equally important. If you usually have a decent breakfast, but skip lunch then lunch is your most important meal. If you struggle getting a quality dinner in then dinner is the most important meal for you. If you never have breakfast or have a bad breakfast then you need to focus on a better breakfast.Today we'll focus on breakfast, but don't worry, tips on lunch, dinner, and snacks will come soon!

Here's a quick and easy recipe that will fuel you for the day.

Easy recipe for steelcut oats:

I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk and green tea on the side

- 1 C of steel cut oats (I get them bulk at wholefoods)

- 3 C of water

- Coconut oil (olive oil turns into trans fat when you use high heat)

- pinch of salt

- 2 organic apples (whichever ones you like)

- cinnamon powder

- High quality vanilla protein powder (whey isolate or if you're lactose intolerant use pea or rice protein)

Heat up about a tsp of coconut oil medium heat, put steel cut oats in while stirring. Add water and a pinch of sea salt. Reduce heat and let it boil for about 20 min stir frequently. Turn heat off, cover pan with lid, and let it sit over night.

Next morning add cut up apples & cinnamon powder. Put it in a big tupperware and heat it up per serving adding unsweetened almond milk or organic whole milk and some vanilla protein powder. Get creative so you don't eat the same thing every day! You can also add some walnuts, unsweetened coconut flakes (available at whole foods or clark's) and some other fruit. I would love for you to post your own version of steelcut oats! Enjoy :)

Notes: 

- If your body doesn't digest carbs very well this might not be the best option for you.

- If you don't have or like protein powder have a couple of eggs on the side for protein. It'll keep you full longer and keep your blood sugar leveled
