Why does breakfast have to be a high carb/low nutrient dense meal? Don’t eat a bowl of sugary cereal or a white piece of toast…AND WHY CANT YOU SIT AND REALLY ENJOY YOUR MEALS?! Try this instead!
While visiting the Georgetown neighborhood in Washington, D.C. we went to this amazing French cafe, le pain quotidien, for breakfast one day. My meal looked a little something like this. Salad, with a simple oil and Dijon dressing, eggs and couple of pieces of fresh bread. It’s so simple, yet so healthy and absolutely delicious. It’s such an easy way to get greens in right away and you feel so accomplished after eating a salad for breakfast!
Look at that cup of coffee! Isn’t that a dream?
When you sit down, Look at your meal. Is it colorful? Is it something that came from a box with a label of unrecognizable ingredients? How can you add to your basic eggs? Just use your basic knowledge and add fruit and greens whenever you can.
Lastly I’ll add this… it’s the holiday season. Are your weekends filled with parties and maybe a little bit more sugar and alcohol than usual? Let your weekday meals be top priority at this time. It’s ideal to do this all of the time of course but if you can’t do it every meal, at least jump back into your normal routine right away on a Monday, do it!
