Breakfast on the Road

Breakfast. A lot of people say they hate it. I'm not sure why, I get up in the morning, having not had anything to eat for 12+ hours and of course I feel not quite right with low blood sugar, grumbling tummy and all. I am lucky that I have always loved breakfast.
 
So why don't you take the time for breakfast? Too busy in the morning with kids, getting ready for work? Why not start eating breakfast, I bet it makes a world of difference in the long run. If your excuse is that you don't have any time, well I have a nutritious solution for you that takes 5 minutes the night before and a 2nd option that takes 5 minutes in the morning and doesn't include buying expensive, processed sugar laden commercial cereal. I sometimes eat these for lunch or dinner when I'm feeling lazy.
 
Since being in Mexico I have been unable to buy low fat dairy of any kind or any frozen berries, so I had to adapt to what was at hand. Here are my two favourite breakfast options, one I eat in Canada with low fat Greek yogurt and one tasty option for when I'm in Mexico! Try them both and see which one you like best!
 
Gringo Breakfast
 
1/2 cup low fat, plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp. Splenda or other sweetener
1/2 cup frozen raspberries, black berries, sour cherries or strawberries - whatever berry you love
1 tsp. hemp seeds
Optional 1/4 cup quick oats
 
Mix it all together - enjoy!
***********************************
 
Mexican Breakfast
 
1 cup dry oats (whole)
1 1/2 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tsp Splenda or other sweetener
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup milk (preferably low fat) or almond, soy milk etc.
1/2 cup water
1/2 tbsp. cocoa nibs
 
Mix all dry ingredients in a jar or other container with a lid. Add water and milk, shake and put in the fridge over night. In the morning, give it a stir with the cocoa nibs - voila!!! My new fav.
 
Happy breakfast!
