Healthy High Protein Bacon Breakfast Idea

So I've recently moved house and found myself conveniently close to a Waitrose which = amazing top quality food, but more importantly ...an amazing selection of gluten free/health foods!!

So on my most recent visit I stumbled across Organic Wholegrain Biona Millet Bread. I generally don't eat much bread anyway but this doesn't really resemble bread... More like a seedy, fibre-filled, cakey-textured, nutty-flavoured accompaniment to a healthy meal. It's MUCH healthier than your average slice of bread!

So the other day I decided I needed such an accompaniment to my protein-packed breakfast of scrambled egg whites and grilled crispy bacon with avocado.......

DEEEElicious! A breakfast that kept me sustained through until lunch time and a perfect to have following a gym session the previous evening or pre-breakfast :-) 

Healthy Breakfast Option

This has become my new favourite in the (rare) long period of hot weather we're having this summer!

It contains a variety of fruit and grains and is therefore a brilliant source of vitamins to help kickstart your day!

Ingredients

-3 tablespoons of fat free Greek yoghurt

-a sprinkling of gluten free porridge oats

- a sprinkling of 'munchy seeds' (a combo of roasts sunflower, pumpkin, hemp, sesame, chia and flaxseed)

- a squeeze of honey

- a combo of fruit - I often have a banana chopped with raspberries, blueberries and kiwi or peach and strawberries .... The list goes on....

Combine your preferred fruits with all other ingredients as ENJOY! Super tasty!!

Cauliflower cheese and herb 'flat bread'

This recipe is really simple and creates a flat bread which doesn't actually contain any usual bread ingredients such as flour! It is therefore gluten free and low carb :-)!!!

Ingredients (makes one small flat bread)

-1 egg

-1 cup of cauliflower (riced)

-Couple of teaspoons of mixed herbs

-Handful of low fat cheese (grated)

-Baking paper

~*~

- pre heat oven to 180c

- put enough cauliflower into a food chopper to make 1 cup full of grated cauliflower.

- sauté the cauliflower in a pan to remove moisture

- mix cauliflower with egg, cheese and herbs

- spread onto a baking tray (covered with baking paper). Make sure it's spread nice and thinly but make sure it is still one piece.

- bake for approx 15 mins or until golden brown.

Ta-da!

I used mine for a ham salad wrap mmm.

However you can coursley chop your cauliflower and double the mixture to make a pizza base and then top with your favourite toppings and grill!!

Tastes amazing!!!
