  • 1/2 an onion (or spring onion)
  • 1/4 cup grated cheese

How to make it:

High Protein Banana And Blueberry Breakfast Smoothie

February 19, 2011 By Leave a Comment

The hardest thing about going Primal (although in hindsight it wasn’t very hard) was giving up a grain based breakfast.

Think about it, what do most people eat for breakfast? Cereals, toast, porridge or maybe even a croissant or a danish on the way to work. It’s quick and easy and the taste is easy on the palate first thing in the morning.

The first week of trying a Primal breakfast I made the nut butter bars from the Primal Cookbook. Mine came out quite crumbly so I simply added some yogurt and berries and I had a very filling breakfast. This week I wanted a change so that I wouldn’t get sick of eating the same thing.

I decided to fall back on the awesome breakfast smoothie. Here’s what I’ve been drinking, mostly to use up all of our bananas and blueberries. Sorry about the rubbish pictures, it was quite early when I made this in the morning.

BlueBan Breakfast Boost

Tastes better than it looks :)

Ingredients

These amounts are just estimates. I tend to just guestimate.

  • 1 large banana
  • 1/4 cup blueberries
  • 1/4 organic yogurt
  • 1/4 cup almond meal
  • 1 scoop vanilla or unflavoured WPC
  • Add water to desired consistancy

Instructions

  1. Pop it all into the blender.
  2. Blend it.
  3. Yum yum.

Better Than Bircher Muesli

October 29, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Here’s a great recipe for breakfast, especially if you are getting sick of eating just plain oats. I stumbled across this after I was told by a friend that the best thing to soak your oats in, is yogurt. Immediately my mind switched to bircher muesli, so I jumped online and looked up the exact recipe and quickly found that I did not have any of the ingredients around the house. So I decided to improvise and make something new. Here is my very simple recipe:

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup of oats
  • 1/2 cup of yogurt (any berry flavour or plain)
  • Several almonds
  • 1/2 cup mixed berries

Directions:

Grab a cereal bowl out of the cupboard and dump all the ingredients in. Stir around with a spoon until all oats are covered in yogurt. Then pop the bowl in the fridge overnight.

In the morning eat as is or add some milk for a little more moisture or protein powder for a morning protein boost. Play around with the quantities to find a mixture you love. The other bonus with this (other than it tasting awesome) is that there is no preparation required in the morning at all. Simply grab out of the fridge and eat.

Servings: 1

Feel free to make a large serving for 3 or 4 days worth, make sure you keep it in a covered container if you are going down this path.
