Breakfast Ideas

Breakfast (brunch) is fast becoming one of my favourite meals of the day. I love experimenting with what I'm making and having a chilled out morning - whether that be reading a magazine or catching up on a TV series. So today I thought that I would share with you a few of the breakfasts that I've been loving recently.

How do you like your eggs in the morning? I like mine poached and with smoked salmon. Since visiting Bills for brunch a few weeks ago I have become obsessed with this! It's slightly more expensive and time consuming than the other breakfast ideas that I'm going to mention but it's good to treat yourself every once in awhile, right? I usually poach my eggs for about four minutes and, whilst I'm waiting for the eggs, toast the breakfast muffins and then I put the smoked salmon on top.

A very simply breakfast if you're in a rush is granola mixed with yogurt. At the moment I'm loving the Jordans Honey and Nut Granola with Greek Style Honey Yogurt. You could also have this with milk if you prefer and you can add some fruit on top of it to add more flavour.

Finally, smoothie bowls are something that I've been wanting to try for ages - they enable you to have so many of your 5-a-day in one sitting! I made a pineapple, banana and mango smoothie bowl by blending all of the fruit together along with some almond milk and 3 teaspoons of honey. To decorate I used chopped up banana and mango and I sprinkled a handful of flaked almonds on top. You can create lots of different flavour combinations for smoothie bowls by using different fruits, yogurts and seeds, so I'll definitely be trying some more of these.
