Waking up feeling a little worse for wear?

Fear not...my beast breakfast roll will sort you right out without any of the
​guilt attached to the regular fat and calories laden version!!

What you need.....
  • 2 full eggs
  • 2 egg whites
  • 2 turkey sausages
  • 2 turkey bacon
  • tsp coconut oil

Any omelette ingredients you like. These are what I went for:
  • 1/4 yellow pepper
  • 1/4 red pepper
  • 2 baby plum tomatoes
  • Handful chopped spinach

What you do.....
  1. First prepare your sausages and bacon. Fry up in a little coconut oil or pop on to the George Forman to save on those fats.
  2. Add a tsp coconut oil to a pan and add your chopped omelette ingredients and fry. 
  3. Whisk together eggs and egg whites and pour on top of your veggies.
  4. Leave to cook on one side before flipping or popping under the grill to finish.
  5. When your sausages and bacon are cooked, place on one side of your omelette. If you would like to add some cheese, now is the time to do so. Close the omelette over and leave to cook for a further two minutes.

Your breakfast roll should be now ready to serve.

Enjoy guys :)

French Toast

French toast made completely from scratch....now who could saw no to that.
​
Picture
The bread was freshly baked using all natural ingredients with a recipe from Roz Purcell's new book - Natural Born Feeder. The recipe can be also be found online, by clicking here. Note: In place of the spelt flour I used oats which I milled in the food processor and left out the tomato, feta and basil.

If you are stuck for time, you can still make the french toast using shop bought bread. Brioche works best as it is thick and spongy and not very likely to fall apart during cooking.

Picture
Picture
Ingredients:
  • 2-3 slices of bread per person
  • 1/2 cup liquid egg whites
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tbsp vanilla essence
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil for frying.
Toppings:
  • Natural yogurt
  • Banana
  • Blueberries
  • Strawberries
​
Method:
  1. First, add coconut oil to the pan and melt over a medium heat.
  2. Add egg whites, almond milk and vanilla essence to a bowl and whisk to combine.
  3. Dunk each slice of bread in the egg mixture, turning to coat both sides.
  4. Transfer to the pan and fry on both sides for 2-3 minutes or till golden brown.
  5. When cooked, remove and serve with your favourite toppings. I went for some banana, berries and natural yogurt. Honey or peanut butter sauce would also be great options.

Savoury Spinach Pancake Stack

7/2/2016

0 Comments

 
Picture
Ingredients:
​2 large eggs
40 g oats
1 cup spinach

Optional toppings:
Rocket
Tomato
Peppers
Feta cheese
​Goats cheese

Method:
1. In a blender, whisk together the eggs, oats and spinach until a batter forms. If the mixture seems a little watery, add more oats. If it is too sticky, add a little water and whisk again.
2. I always use two pans when making pancakes so if you are doing this, put on a gentle heat and melt a little coconut oil on each to prevent sticking. 
3. Pour the mixture on to one pan till the base is covered. Allow the pancake to cook till the liquid on top turns solid. Now it is time to flip on to the other pan to cook the top.
4. While the top of your first pancake is cooking, complete the process again for your second pancake and continue doing so till all your batter is used up.
5. For this recipe, I topped my pancakes with some rocket leaves and cherry tomatoes. Make this recipe your own by choosing to top with your favourite ingredients.
