I love soaked oats, but soaked chia seeds make a welcome and nutritious change from time to time. I was actually planning to do plain orange, but then I saw the bag of carrots . . . In any case, this is a delicious and fresh breakfast you can make…
Sometimes, you need a punch of protein to start your day. These oats are fluffy, filling, and packed with the “p”! Flaxseeds and chia seeds bring their fair share of protein, as well as omega-3s, fibre, and minerals. Oats fill this with healthy carbohydrates, and psyllium adds extra fibre. Yoghurt…
Being a New Zealander, I love my kiwifruit. However, nicely-ripe green ones are pretty hard to come across – so I usually settle for gold. Well, they certainly shine in this healthy thickshake! I found the most wonderful, wide straws while in Auckland the other day. After searching for them…
I continue my obsession with custard. I continue my obsession with oats. Together, the most wonderful thing is created . . . I love the way these oats set into a thick, creamy custard when chilled. Of course, feel free to eat the custardy porridge hot as soon as it…
Ever fancied a rich brownie covered in silky chocolate pudding . . . for breakfast? Well, now you can munch to your heart’s content. Chocolate for breakfast – now that is a good way to start the day! Of course, I don’t sweeten mine at all. I’ve weaned myself from…

Even better, though, is the taste of these. Putting aside the wonderful texture, their flavour is of little lemon cheesecakes. Need I…
Weet-bix make a great replacement for porridge when you’re running low on time. Sure, no one likes them soggy – but in pudding form? So good. All you have to do is mash together a bunch of ingredients and swirl through some easy peanut butter sauce. Quick, delicious, and loaded…
I combine three of my favourite things – fruit salad, chia pudding, and soaked oats! Really, I don’t know how things can get much more breakfast-y 🙂 Of course, eating this will account for a daily fruit intake, as the servings do add up. Chia seeds add heaps of fibre,…
A super-satisfying, tasty breakfast to keep you energised. Check. A heap of health benefits and nutrients. Double check! Oranges load this with Vitamin C, Weet-bix and psyllium fibre, chia seeds and flaxseeds omega-3s and protein. I actually added a spoonful of cream cheese to my blender because we only had…
