Best Breakfasts for people on the go

Weekdays are always a blur.

Your alarm goes off, and eventually after pressing the snooze button for the 27th time, you have to get out of bed and face the world.

The last thing on your half-asleep mind is: "Now what should I make for breakfast?"

For most people, making breakfast during a busy week is nothing but a burden. And I don't mean to burst any of my South African follower's bubbles, but Rusks and Coffee can NOT be classified as a well-balanced breakfast!

Rusks are a delicious and addictive snack, but it does not allow you to take in all the healthy nutrients your body needs to seize the day.

FYI: Your average fruit and vegetable intake should be around 3 fruit a day and at least 7 vegetables.

Here are a few suggestions for quick, healthy and filling breakfasts:

Own a Nutribullet?

If so, you can include your 2 to 3 fruit for the day, with at least 3 veggies all in one delicious breakfast shake! It is important to not put in too many fruits as fruit are high in sugar (healthy sugar, but sugar nonetheless).

Protein: Chia Seeds are absolutely delicious in a shake, and they are high in protein.

Not only do they taste delicious, but they also look pretty!

Hemp: Hemp is another great source of protein to add to your shake. It comes in the form of a powder or you can add the seeds to your drink. The seeds give the shake a more chewy, porridge-like texture whereas the powder will allow for a smoother texture. Hemp seeds contain 9 amino acids, is high in fiber and also contains Omega 3 and 6. This is why it is Classified as a Superfood.

Shakes are always better with some form of dairy. Try your shake with Double Cream Greek Yogurt or Home Made Almond Milk for a vegan version.

Place your shake in a small Consol Glass bottle and drink on the way to work! The best part about these shakes is that you can make your shake the night before and grab it on your way out the door.

Jamie Oliver's Chocolate Porridge:

In his cookbook, "Superfood Family Classics" Jamie makes a tasty, healthy chocolate porridge with cacao powder, raw cacao nibs, coffee, rolled oats, nuts and seeds, sweetened with dates. Letthe mixture soak in milk (any kind) and a dollop of yogurt overnight to create a thick, rich, chocolaty porridge.

Tip: Kids also love it!

Omelette Wrap:

If you are in the mood for something hearty and warm, try a 2 egg omelet with Feta Cheese, Wholegrain Mustard and an assortment of Greens Leaves. Wrap the omelet in tin foil and enjoy on your way to work!

I mentioned this in my previous post, but I just had to share this again! Slice all your veggies the night before, place your pita at the ready, and the next morning quickly toast and stuff the pita on your way out the door. Include some Avo, Tomatoes, Spring Onion, Spinach Leaves and even a scrambled egg if you're in the mood for a tummy warmer.

Flapjacks for All Ages:

Make buttermilk pancake/flapjack batter the night before then turn them into mini flapjacks the next morning while you wait for your coffee to brew or your kettle to boil. Serve your flapjacks with mashed raspberries and vanilla creamed honey.
