Sunny Morning Scramble
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1⁄2 cup quinoa, cooked (great to have some pre-cooked for convenience, meal prep tip 101)
- 1 sweet potato, chopped
- 1⁄4 cup corn
- 1 handful of kale
- 1⁄4 cup diced onion
- 1⁄2 lime
- 1⁄4 cup cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 1-2 tsp chili powder
- 1-2 cloves garlic
- 1-2 tsp salt
- 1⁄4 cup salsa
- 1 avocado
- 2 Handfuls spinach
Cook sweet potato first in large skillet with water until soft. Drain any excess water.
Toss in the coconut oil and sauté the onion until browned/translucent.
Add garlic (try using a garlic press) and saute for few minutes.
Add corn and kale and saute until warm.
Add salt, cilantro, and chili powder.
Stir in spinach.
Cover with a lid for 5 minutes or until spinach has wilted.
Serve and top with avocado and salsa. This medley is also pretty amazing turned into a break fast burrito if you need to grab and go! Don’t be afraid to cook ahead and have a few burritos ready in the morning. I LOVE using this recipe on road trips.
Peanut Butter Sammi Breakfast
This is a favorite of mine. Even for breakfast. Jazz up a childhood favorite and make it an adult breakfast for champions.. who are really pressed for time and hungry.
- 2 slices of your favorite whole grain bread
- 2 tsp of peanut butter
- 1 tsp chia seed
- 1 tsp hemp seed
- 1/2 banana, sliced
- 2 tsp maple syrup
Get crazy and toast that bread. Slather the peanut butter and maple syrup together on the slices, just like you would with a peanut butter sandwich. Sprinkle your chia and hemp seeds on one of the slices for the added nutrients and protein. On the other slice of bread, add the sliced banana. Slap it all together and you have an amazing on the go option that will keep you satisfied for a hectic, jam packed morning at the office.
Although, I don’t recommend this being an everyday option.. this is a GREAT option for the mornings when you don’t have a moment to think or even to put pants on. Adulting can be hard some mornings but this option is a pretty sweet deal.
