Autumn Toast

With the cold Autumn mornings now present I've been favouring warmer breakfasts to cold smoothies, such as porridge, and toast..mmm the smell of warm toast and coffee on a morning..so nice. Although my tummy seems to disagree, so instead I opt for sprouted rye bread, which I discovered the other week in my local health food shop, Zeds. The loaf is only small but it suits my portion size just fine and lasts me the whole week. I've been having it toasted and topped with various toppings such as yeast extract and tahini, or carob and hazelnut spread to satisfy my sweeter side. It also go very well topped with avocado. The bread reminds me a little of malt loaf but not as sweet, the texture is soft and moist and is very filling and also super good for you. It is made from sprouted rye and nothing else and is baked using an old traditional recipe.

In replacement of using coffee, (which I haven't drank for almost five years now, and if I did it would probably send me the wrong side of wappy land!) So instead I use barley cup or chicory root, which tastes very much like coffee but without any of the nasty side effects, it is delicious with either rice or almond milk, and also great mixed with superfoods, such as maca and suma, and a pinch of cinnamon tops it off just nicely too.
I enjoyed mine with a light breakfast the other morning with a home-made juice of beets, carrots and apples, and a narna for afters..yum :)

Hope you're enjoying a variety of warming breakfasts this Autumn and managing to banish those colds.

Enjoy good food, good health and stay creative..
