Overnight chia puddings offer a hearty breakfast with optimal convenience. Try this delicious chocolate version! Chia seeds are rich in omega 3 fatty acids and calcium – this recipe offers a total of 507 mg of calcium, which is 50% of your daily value if you are a female or male between the ages of 19 and 50. I like to enjoy my chia seed puddings for breakfast in my backyard while catching up on news and social media happenings 🙂
Have you tried farro before? It’s one of the oldest grains in existence! It has a higher fiber and protein content than common wheat. In one-quarter cup serving of uncooked farro provides 200 calories’ worth of energy, along with 7 g each of fibre and protein, as well as 10% of your daily iron needs.  In this salad, I’ve combined farro with lentils along with heaps of roasted vegetables. Now you’ve got a nutty and chewy filling entree salad. Enjoy!
Looking for a filling vegetarian dish? I got your answer here! With a whopping 27 g of protein and 13 g of fibre for one serving, it’s not a wonder why this dish will keep you satisfied for hours. Simple, whole ingredients make this dish hearty and healthy. Easy to make – add to your Sunday batch cooking list!
“If you don’t eat dairy, aren’t you missing out on calcium?”
This is a question you have likely heard before, if you avoid dairy.
A smoothie is a typical breakfast for me. However sometimes I find that I need a small mid-morning snack to tie me over until lunch, after a breakfast smoothie. If you are finding a smoothie doesn’t quite tie you over until lunch, you definitely should try out this smoothie bowl – a smoothie with a hearty kick! The addition of nuts and seeds add fibre, fat and PROTEIN to your typical smoothie. The smoothie itself is thicker than your typical smoothie that you’d drink through a straw. It’s also vegan and gluten-free. Give it a try!
Thinking about going meatless but afraid you’ll miss the smokey flavour of bacon? I present you with this alternative – tempeh bacon! The sweetly smokey flavour of this recipe will do a pretty good job with filling your void for bacon.
