Breakfast is such a wonderful meal, arguably my favorite of the day. Your body has spent the entire night repairing itself, undoing whatever damage you've done to it during the day, and needs replenishment in the morning. When I finish your pile of eggs and oatmeal, the burst of energy I feel lasts through lunch, if not longer. It's my most productive time of the day. I have never, and will never, understand people who skip breakfast.
My typical breakfast involves a few egg whites, spinach, tomatoes, and half a cup of oats with cinnamon. But that can become quite boring after a while, and it takes time to prepare. I''ll gladly admit I've been habitually late getting out of bed recently. With the spring weather finally gracing Philadelphia with its presence, I've taken to making smoothies in the morning. I've written this post in order to share one of my favorite recipes, and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do. Happy breakfasting!
