Favourite Healthy Breakfast Recipes!

In the morning it is super important to kick start your metabolism for the day and have a nice healthy breakfast. Personally, I like to make breakfast something to look forward to by having lots of yummy (yet healthy) options. The two recipes I really like are very popular and recipes many people have probably already heard of, however I like to tweak them and honestly I think I even made them a little bit better. Of course it depends on what flavours you like, these are really easy to customize and here is the way I do it!

Tone It Up Protein Pancakes

Tone It Up ladies, Karina and Katrina have come up with amazing recipes for all occasions that fit all needs, so if my favourite recipes don't meet your needs or you simply want great, easy ideas for food go check out their website by clicking the link above.

My favourite recipe of theirs is the protein pancakes, with four easy ingredients, it is fast, yummy and full of protein! 

Ingredients:

1 scoop of *protein

1/2 crushed banana

1 egg white

1 tablespoon almond milk 

*They recommend using the protein they designed, perfect fit protein, you can use any protein you have. Sometimes I use strawberry and cute real strawberries and the other half of the banana and put that on top with some maple syrup! Another thing they suggest adding is cinnamon which is great for the fall. Other ingredients could be dark chocolate chips, blueberries or really anything you want, have fun with it!

Lauren Conrad's Morning Quinoa

Lauren Conrad has some amazing healthy, fun recipes and this one I really love because like the one above you can change it up and personalize it. So basically this one would be like having your typical oat meal, but instead it's quinoa. She makes it taste good by adding banana, raisins, almonds and maple syrup. I like adding almonds, blueberries, blackberries, hemp seeds, chia seeds and stevia, it is really yummy and extremely filling. Also to make it really quick in the morning, pre prepare quinoa for the week so you can take out the desired amount in the morning and add your toppings, this way you can try different things and spend a lot less time in the kitchen!

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups cooked quinoa

1 cup almond milk

*Toppings!

Anyways, those are the two recipes I love the most in the mornings. Of course there are so many others, especially if you are in the mood for something savoury rather than sweet. Many times in the morning I am too, if that is the case I usually go for toast with avocado (to get some of those good fats) or an omelette (egg whites have lots of protein).

Hope this was helpful and gave you some ideas!
