2 green breakfast ideas


Hello people! Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, you've heard that too many times. And although fruits are the best option for early in the day, it's good to throw some greens now and then. In this post, I'm going to show two amazing breakfast ideas that include something green, because green can make everything healthy! Except for the green m&m's, don't have these for breakfast.


Breakfast No 1
Avocado toast

One of the easiest, quickest and tastiest breakfast (or any other meal tbh) you can make. Avocado has become really popular and why wouldn't it? It contains a wide variety of nutrients, including 20 different vitamins and minerals, and yes it is a high fat food but it contains naturally good fat food which your body needs. Also eating avocados can lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels and some studied have shown that it can even prevent cancer. 
But anyways, the way I like to incorporate avocado into my diet is usually by spreading it on a toast, put some tomato slices on top and maybe some cucumber or spinach. In some cases I will drizzled some soy sauce on top, as I did now.
If don't know how an avocado toast tastes like, I highly encourage you to make this, you can thank me later. Oh, and always use ripe avocados, I've been there.























Breakfast No 2
Green smoothie


So, this is something you may be familiar with. If not, don't be appalled. Throwing some greens into your regular smoothie can be suprisingly tasty and incredibly nutritious. And spinach is the way to go! Spinach is one of the most healthy foods in the planet, and among cancer-fighting fruits and veggies, spinach is one of the most effective. It's also low in fat and even lower in cholesterol, and high in protein, fiber, vitamins A, C, E and K, calcium, iron..the list goes on and on!
For my smoothie I used 2 handfull of spinach, one cucumber, 1 peach, 1 banana and a splash of soy milk. Some other fruit options are pinapple, mango, kiwi, grapes, whatever your heart desires!
















Just mix your ingredients in a blender and you have yourself an amazing green smoothie loaded with goodness and nutrition. And trust me, you won't even taste the spinach, because the banana will sweeten it! This works as a good post-workout meal as well.
























Now go and make yourself some good breakfast and start your day right! xxx

PB and cacao smoothie


One of my favourite things to make in the morning are smoothies, which are great for giving that boost and energy you need early in the day.They're also great as a post-workout snack.


So, the other day I really wanted to make a smoothie but the only fruit I had was bananas, and I thought i would make this amaaazing peanut butter and choco smoothie. 





The ingredients are really self-explanatory and I just wanted to put as few ingredients as possible. That minimalistic life doe.

so what you'll need is:

  • 2 bananas
  • 1 tbsp peanut butter
  • 1 tsp cacao powder
  • a little bit of water (you can also use non-dairy milk)



And you're just going to blend all of the above in a blender- aaand you're smoothie is ready! If you're feeling a little fancy, you can also add chia seeds or any type of nut you like.
