3 classic breakfast foods - nuuted
by team nuut
Breakfast is often described as the most important meal of the day, providing it supplies us with sustenance and energy for whatever the day has in store.
As nutritionist Adelle Davis famously said in the 1960s: “Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper.” Why? Breakfast not only breaks your overnight fast, but refuels glycogen (energy) stores, kick starts the metabolism, provides super-beneficial nutrients, boosts fibre and calcium intake, reduces the chances of over- consuming high kilojoule foods later in the day, and stabilises blood sugar levels.
Because our mornings are super-hectic, we took our breakfast go-tos – avocado, oatmeal and coffee – and tweaked them for the ultimate protein-powered breakfast on the go.
The secret add-in? Why nuut of course.
