What's for breakfast?



Hey my morning friends, I can imagine how you are tired of traditional , all the time same breakfast.My early mornings starts with amazing Latin music and 15 min dances. I love to wake up my body with fresh mint tea. I like to eat various food everyday. Sometimes I'm having curd with cinnamon, porridge with berries or just boiled egg. Just look what I prepared this morning to you.


GREEN SPINACH AND HERB OMELETTE


Ingredients:

• 2 large eggs
• 2 Tablespoons heavy cream or coconut milk
• A few fresh herbs such as chives, flat leaf parsley, tarragon and chervil
• 1 small handful of baby spinach, washed
• Pinch fine sea salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• Butter or coconut oil for pan
• Lightly dressed salad greens of your choice
• 1 or 2 ounces fresh goat cheese, crumbled (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Soak the eggs in warm tap water for a few minutes to bring them to room temperature (this allows for the omelette to cook faster and more evenly.)
  2. In the bowl of a food processor pulse the fresh herbs and spinach until finely chopped.
  3. Add the eggs, cream, a pinch of salt and pepper and pulse until well combined.
  4. In a non-stick omelet or crêpe pan, melt a pat of butter or spoonful of coconut oil over medium-high heat, tilting the pan so that it coats the surface evenly.
  5. When the butter is just beginning to brown, add the egg mixture swirling quickly so that it forms an even layer over the bottom of the pan.
  6. Cook just until the egg is set (this should only take a minute or two). It’s done when the edges are dry and the top is just set.
  7. Run a spatula around the edges and lift slightly to loosen it from the pan.
  8. Repeat with remaining egg mixture.
  9. Plate and fill with salad green and crumbled cheese (if using), folding half of the omelette over the filling.






BANANA AND ALMOND PORRIDGE


Ingredients:

• 1/4 Cup Oats
• 1 tsp Chia seeds
• 1 Cup Milk
• 1/2 Banana, chopped
• 1 Tbsp Dates, chopped
• 2 tsp Almonds, sliced
• 2 tsp Cinnamon powder
• 1 Saffron thread
• 1 Tbsp Honey

Instructions:

1.Gather all the ingredients.
2.Soak the oats in water for a few minutes, and in another bowl soak chia seeds in water for 10 minutes.
3.In a pan over medium flame, heat up the milk and add banana, dates, almonds and cinnamon.
4.Add the saffron thread to the milk. After 30 seconds, add the oats and cook with the milk.
5.After 1 minute, when the porridge is the right consistency and oats are cooked through, remove the pan from flame and pour the porridge into a serving bowl.
6.Stir honey through the porridge and garnish with chia seeds.




BUCKWHEAT PANCAKES

Pancakes


• 1 cup buckwheat flour (or ½ buckwheat and ½ flour of choice)
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 ¼ cups buttermilk, shaken*
• 1 large egg
• ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• Butter, for the skillet


Roasted Strawberries


• 1 pint strawberries, hulled and sliced into bite-sized quarters or halves
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey



Instructions:

  1. Roast the strawberries: preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, gently toss berries with the sugar and maple syrup/honey. Arrange the strawberries in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast for 30 minutes, stirring halfway, or long enough for the berry juices to thicken but not burn (watch the edges in particular).
  2. Make the pancakes: in a medium mixing bowl, mix together the flour(s), sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a liquid measuring cup, measure out the buttermilk. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
  3. All at once, add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The batter should have some small to medium lumps.
  4. Preheat your skillet over medium-low heat and brush with 1 ½ teaspoons of butter. Give the batter a light swirl with a spoon in case the buckwheat is starting to separate from the liquid. Using a ¼-cup measure, scoop the batter onto the warm skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until small bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes (you’ll know it’s ready to flip when about 1 inch of the perimeter is matte instead of glossy), and flip. Cook on the opposite sides for 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden brown.
  5. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a baking sheet and place in a preheated 200 degree Fahrenheit oven to keep warm. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter when needed. Serve immediately.
