I’m obsessed with granola and have been making yummy granola with oats for years (check out the recipe here) but I’ve never made it with Buckwheat before and I’m not sure why. It’s much lower GI and more easily digestible and despite having ‘wheat’ in its name, it’s not wheat at all, it is in … Continue reading Apricot & Coconut Buckwheat Granola
These are the best things for on-the-go breakfasts for those busy mornings. You can freeze them and defrost in batches as and when you need them which also helps. They are full of slow-releasing energy and great nutrients with no refined sugar, dairy, gluten, wheat or eggs so are the perfect healthy breakfast or … Continue reading Apple & Cinnamon Granola Bars
I know it’s not to everyone’s taste but I’m a big lover of ginger. It’s such a great anti-inflammatory so great to put in food or drink. When I make granola I usually just do my simple maple and pecan but I fancied a change this time and had so many figs at home also … Continue reading Maple, Fig & Ginger Granola
I’ve got to thank my friend Lana for the inspiration on this one, she inspired me to make it. Savoury granola is fast becoming a popular choice of breakfast food in Israel so I thought I’d try it and I really enjoyed it. It almost tastes like popcorn, just much healthier – and you can … Continue reading Savoury Granola
As you can probably tell by now, I’m a massive breakfast fan.

How could I ever go back to processed cereals after knowing about the amazing things I can make for breakfast and so easily? Smoothie bowls are so great because you can pack so many nutrients into them, into the actual smoothie and with the toppings.

You’ve probably seen my Acai Berry Smoothie Bowl and this one is not dissimilar, I just used slightly different ingredients. I try to open a few acai capsules into my breakfast every few days because the acai berries have been tested to hold more polyphenols and antioxidants than pretty much any other food. You get polyphenols … Continue reading Strawberry Banana Acai Smoothie Bowl
