Breakfast Whole Life Challenge Style

Smoked Salmon-Avocado Rolls

Smoked salmon (Check no added sugar! Tesco Organic Smoked Salmon is a good choice)
Avocado
Fresh Dill

Slice the salmon (approx 2cm x 6cm) and avocado (as fine slices as possible) and chop some dill (Use the dill on the next day for a fish dish or freeze it chopped in a freezer bag)

Sprinkle some dill onto the salmon slices and roll avocado slices into the salmon rolls
Easy!
 

Breakkie smoothie with Raisins and Chia seeds
Pineapple
Pear
Banana

We could not survive without our food processor, we use it every single morning to prep a fresh fruit smoothie.
This time made a bigger portion as we had ran out of meat/eggs so served a larger portion of smoothie with the salmon slides.


Did you know chia seeds are super food?
'Chia absorbs up to 12 times its own weight and expands to curb your appetite, so adding just an ounce or so of chia seeds to your diet can reduce caloric intake and help lower the energy density (or calories) of foods, plus double the amount of fiber you receive.'

'Chia seeds have more omega-3 fatty acids than salmon! Chia is one of the most concentrated sources of omega-3 in any food. It also contains high amounts of omega-6. Everyone needs to consume high amounts of these essential fatty acids in their diet'

'Chia also contains calcium; in fact, it delivers 18% of your daily value per ounce, which is three times more than skim milk.'
