A tropical variation on my breakfast stable. Milder in taste than berries so I'm still looking for the perfect condiment to this.
I do a batch of this and store it in the fridge to mix with herbs, spices and sometimes nuts as a side to my protein and veggies.
My breakfast staple. I have this (varying the berries) almost every day of the week in summer. Never fails to wake me up. Berries generally are fibre rich but for and additional fibre kick you can add a tablespoonful of bran.
I love the colour and taste of this one. It has a bit more seeds in it but is second on fibre content after the raspberry variation.
Another variation of my breakfast staple.This one goes great with a couple of fresh mint leaves in it. Very sommery!
This is a recipe from Food.com that I stumbled upon. It is a blank canvas that can be embelished with nuts, chocolate chips, died fruit or fresh fruit that I add to my tracker separately according to what I have used in the batch. It's not a recipe low on sugar or calories but I still need to track it so this is why I added it here.
The number of servings is determined by the size of the pan. Mine is about 6 inches/15 cm and produces some 20 thin pancakes. Although I put these in the Desserts category what you fill them up with is up to you. I like just as much them with some ham and/or cheese or even with some grilled meat and mushrooms as I do with chocolate or fresh and low cal fruit preserves. I have yet to try them with fresh fruit but I bet it will work.
Low on calories, high on taste. You could use a low-fat sour cream to make it even leaner but I don't have that available to me here and, frankly, it does not make that much of a difference for one serving.
This is a very very quick fix dish and incredibly filling. A slice of rye bread on the side turns it into a complete meal.
I compiled this from several recipes on the internet and then tweaked it to lower the fat content. Definitely works for me.
A super easy snack sized desert to quench the icecream craving. You can lower it even further on calories if using a sweetener instead of the sugar or enhancethe taste by opting for flavoured yogurt.
Tahini is ground sesame seeds. This is a great dressing or dip for grilled chicken, salads or steamed veggies, especially broccoli. Has a strong, spicy and nutty taste.
