Now, first let me say that these are not the most "healthy" breakfasts, but they work pretty well when you are sick of smoothies and fresh fruit. Yes, I do get sick of that sometimes. I still have a starch addiction that I feed periodically. When I do, I try to make it more healthy than I would traditionally eat it.
Yesterday, we ate grits! Yes good ol' grits. I'm southern and will probably never fully give them up. Don't judge me. Shoot, go ahead and judge me. I don't care. lol Anyhoo, here are the pics.
 |
| Raw chopped spinach, raw chopped tomatoes, and sauteed onions. |
 |
| Add you hot grits. I seasoned mine with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. The yellow stuff is my vegan "cheese" or nutritional yeast. While the grits are cooling the spinach is wilting and the tomatoes are warming up. The point is to keep them as close to raw as possible. |
 |
| Mix it all up and try not to burn your mouth as you gobble this up!!! It's SOOOO GOOD!!! |
 |
| My daughter eats hers with everything except the onions and heavy nutritional yeast. |
 |
| My son eats his with everything except tomatoes. |
I really hope you try this if you like grits. It's a healthier way to have an old Southern favorite.
Now, this morning my son asked for potatoes. Of course I couldn't just let the baby eat starch by itself so I tried to figure out a way to to make it healthier. Here's what we came up with.
 |
| Potatoes cut on the spiralizer with a lovely miso mayo. Sauteed veggies (onions, tomatoes, and spinach) with seasonings. I topped it with Daiya cheese which is vegan. |
Take these ideas and make them your own to improve you meals.
