Breakfast Recipes Snacks (Pre & Post Workout) Tips

Seeking for the PERFECT breakfast

Thinking of becoming healthier?

Do you want a healthy, quick, easy, fulfilled breakfast which even helps you to LOSE weight?

If your answer is… Yes, yes, yes! Then OATS are your best friend, it’s the perfect ingredient to achieve all of that and much more.

The 1st time I saw a bowl of porridge in my life, was here in Dublin, where I’ve been living for 4 years now. And I remember I thought: that looks disgusting…

One day, an irish colleague showed me how to eat it. He took the non-nice sticky porridge, added some honey, some pieces of pineapple and cinnamon on top. Then, I tried and… OMG! It was DELICIOUS!

The mix of flavours, textures and the sweet touch coming from the honey and cinnamon, was incredible. But more than that,  I felt great during the whole morning, no hunger, plenty of energy and an easy stomach. I was delighted, what a discovery!

Since then, oats has became one of my favourite choices for breakfast. It has helped my digestions, kept me fulfil, plenty of energy and even helped to decrease my cholesterol.

How to prepare it

I take it mostly for breakfast or as a smoothie 2h before training. But in general, I prepare it on 3 different ways:

  • Porridge: with fruit and 1 scoop of protein powder (vanilla, chocolate or strawberry flavour).
  • Smoothies: as a pre-workout snack with 1 scoop of protein powder.
  • Pancakes: I prepare the pancakes paste with oats, white eggs, protein powder and vanilla extract. So yummy! Healthy way to eat something sweet.

 

Remember!

Oats is your best friend if you want to have a healthier diet. Also, it will help you to lose weight, improve your cholesterol, your skin, keep your sugar levels right and maximise your energy. It’s so easy to add it into your day, as a breakfast or with smoothies or pancakes.
