Living the good life, the healthy way

Small things

Published 2012-09-26 09:35:28 i Breakfasts,

Small things like serving your yoghurt in a martini glass, can make things feel so much more luxurious. I wasn't very hungry this morning when we got up, so I only had a small breakfast. A friend is coming over soon, and I'm going to bake some bananabread for us to have as a midmorning snack with our coffee. Hope you all have made time for breakfast this morning, it is after all the most important meal of the day! ;-)

Pancakes for breakfast

Published 2012-09-25 11:01:43 i Breakfasts,

Both me and my fiancé love eating pancakes for breakfast, but since they're not the most GI friendly of breakfasts I try not to make them too often. This morning however, we really fancied some. I made a few changes to the recipe, both to cut down on white flour, sugar and fats.
 
Pancakes for two (ca 12 pancakes):
  • 1 3/4 deciliters whole grain dinkel flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon stevia lightsugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 3/4 deciliters of milk (semi-skimmed)
  • 1 tablespoon Kesella (quark)
 
Mix the dry ingredients together, then add milk and stir. Add Kesella (quark) and the egg and mix into a smooth mixture. Fry with a little bit of butter on a medium hot frying pan. Turn them over when they start to "bubble", approximately 1½ minute on each side.
 
This batch made 12 pancakes, so 6 each. I served it with fresh strawberries (still picking them from my garden!) and banana, but any fresh berries and fruits will go well with it. One serving will provide approximately 350-400 calories. Good start of the day!
 

Glorious Sunday morning

Published 2012-09-23 10:22:00 i Breakfasts,

Sunday already! Saturday flew past in a hurry, but I had a good day, seeing both sides of my family and making a few finds at Amnesty's flea market. Both Friday and Saturday came with a few just a little (read very much) too many treats, so my stomach wasn't very pleased with me last night.
 
Decided to give myself a tasty, but stomach friendly breakfast this Sunday morning, which also provides no more than 350 calories in total.
I had mild natural yoghurt with a little unsweetened müsli and frozen berries on top. A quarter of a fresh pineapple, and a homemade applesauce and oatmeal muffin. I will bring you the recipe for that a little later on!
 
This breakfast provides you with C-vitamins and antioxidants, a good source of fibers in the müsli and muffin, and a nice bit of protein and calcium with the yoghurt.
