Breakfast doesn’t have to be boring, you just have to be a bit more creative. I always loved french toast as a kid and enjoy it just as much now.

This makes a great quick breakfast during the week when you are time poor. The addition of protein powder will give it the added protein boost. Pumpkin is a good source of antioxidants particularly vitamin A which is essential for vision and skin health.

Smoothie bowls have been popular on social media and in health food cafes for some time now and a refreshing bowl of banana ‘nice cream’ is actually really nice.

Smoothie bowls really do make a great breakfast if done right.

Using 1 banana is plenty in a smoothie bowl and it will give you enough creaminess to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Who doesn’t like pancakes? We often associate pancakes as a weekend treat only, but why not make a healthy pancake that can be enjoyed every day.

Granola really is delicious and is a popular breakfast choice, however the amount of sugar can be quite extreme in a lot of the store bought brands.

This recipes uses quinoa flakes to boost the protein content and raw nuts and seeds as opposed to roasted so that you reap the full nutritional value.
