My Favorite Healthy Breakfast

I​ am sure many of you have heard of the term macro-nutrients.  Macro-nutrients refer to the major nutrients needed in your body, which are carbs, protein and fats.  These nutrients are essential for your body to be energized for the day.  Many of you have asked me to share my favorite breakfast recipes, this is definitely one of my favorites as it includes all the macro-nutrients you need. It is very nutritious, perfect on-the-go and ensures you remain fueled for the day!

My go to breakfast is Blueberry Protein Soaked Oats - 360 calories in total, including  54g of carbs, 7g of fat  and 23.5g of protein.

​Ingredients:

• Whole grain oats (1/2 cup)
• Coconut or almond milk (1/2 cup)
• Chia seeds (1 teaspoon)
• Whey protein (1/2 scoop)
• Fresh blueberries (1 cup)
  

I use birthday cake flavored whey protein but you can use any flavor that goes well with blueberries (maybe vanilla or strawberry). This recipe is so easy to do!

Once all the ingredients are in the cup make sure you mix it all together.  Protein takes a while to dissolve into the milk so keeping all the ingredients soaked overnight will help with the flavor for the next morning. Feel free to change blueberries to any fruit of your liking (hint - berries are full of antioxidants and taste great with the oats !)

This recipe gives you a head-start on carbs, protein and healthy fats for the day.  Its important to supply your body with enough
macro-nutrients if you are consistently working out. Make sure you start your day off right with this recipe!
