Power Breakfast

breakfastBreakfast Made Easy:

What I love about this breakfast recipe is that if I’m on top of my food plan I can makes this super healthy by soaking the seeds overnight.  But, if I’m rushing around before breakfast I can just grind all the seeds and go (not quite as healthy but still better than a fast food breakfast option).  Any way you make it, it only takes a couple minutes.  You can make the time in the morning for a healthy breakfast.

My favorite is to throw a poached egg on top – love it!

It can be eaten hot or cold depending on if you have time to heat up some alternative milk product or are lucky enough to have raw milk in the refrigerator.  It’s just SO versatile.  It doesn’t have to be just for breakfast either.

Power Breakfast Benefits:

It’s full of essential Omega 3 fatty acids, thanks to the flax and chia seeds.  Plus great antioxidants from the sunflower seeds.  The sesame seeds have the trace mineral copper to help find inflammation.  And, of course, my favorite antibacterial, antimicrobial, super food coconut!  It really is a power breakfast for everyone.

Kellie's philosophy is that there is no one-size fits all diet. Because of bio-individuality (each one of us is different), most diets will work for some people and not for others. We need to eat nutrient dense, whole foods that have been properly prepared - real food, as close to the form it was originally grown/raised in, prepared in a way that preserves or even enhances the nutritional value of the food.

 

She believes that it is important to investigate how the body is using the food as well as understanding what is happening in the bigger context of an individuals life.  She knows that we are obviously more than what we eat and that can have a very big impact on how the body deals with food. Kellie helps her clients identify and move toward their personal ultimate health goals.
