I think a successful morning is a secret to an exceptional day. Now all that's left is the question What does a successful morning mean?

Step 1. Wake up as early as possible and a drop of sports

The sooner you wake up, the easier it will be for you to start the day fresh but without haste. Because the silence of the morning allows you 15 minutes of meditation and another 20 minutes of stretching or yoga. After only 35 minutes, you will be ready to plan your day with a clear mind.

Step 2. A hearty and easy breakfast.

Breakfast has a lot to offer: satisfying, delicious, and low in carbohydrates. Be with fiber and essential fatty acids. And of course … it's easy to do. You can discover one of my favorite recipes below:

Ingredients

  • a handful of blueberries
  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 125 ml coconut milk with 22% fat
  • 2 more teaspoons of chia seeds

Method of preparation

Crush the blueberries with a fork and mix well with the 3 tablespoons of chia seeds and honey until they reach the consistency of a jam. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Separately, mix the coconut milk with the chia seeds. Put it over the blueberry jam and leave it in the fridge overnight.

If you want (and you have more time), you can also try the following recipes, ideal for a healthy breakfast.

1. Toast with egg yolks and curry powder

Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 slices of bread
  • 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 avocado
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • chopped coriander or dill for serving

Method of preparation

Break the eggs into two separate bowls. In a non-stick pan, heat 3 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat. Carefully add the eggs and fry until the egg whites are browned and crispy on the edges for about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

In a small skillet, over medium heat, fry the curry powder until it releases its flavor, about 1 minute. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and set aside. Pass the avocado pulp and mix it with the lemon juice and a little salt. Fry the 2 slices of bread.

Over each slice put the avocado puree, 1 fried egg, and chopped coriander or parsley. In the end, sprinkle the 2 portions with curry oil.

Oatmeal with pineapple and ginger

Ingredients

  • 200 g oatmeal
  • 250 g chopped pineapple
  • 125 g chopped walnuts
  • 1 piece of ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups (500 ml) whole milk
  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla essence

Method of preparation

Preheat the oven. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine oatmeal, pineapple pieces, walnuts, ginger (grated or chopped), and salt. Divide the composition into 4 not very large ceramic heat-resistant vessels (ramekin). You set them aside.

In another pot or bowl, mix the remaining ingredients until combined. Pour a quarter of the milk (syrup-like) composition over the oat and pineapple flakes in each of the 4 ramekin dishes.

Put the ramekin dishes in a baking tray. Bake in the preheated oven until the oatmeal is browned on top for about 25 minutes. Serve this breakfast with honey or maple syrup to taste.

Cold chia pudding (prepared in the evening)

Ingredients

  • 200 g oatmeal
  • 4 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 4 tablespoons honey
  • unsweetened milk or vegetable milk (soy, coconut), whichever is more
  • grated lemon peel
  • fresh blueberries to taste

Method of preparation

Prepare 4 small jars with lids, add 50 g of oatmeal, 1 tablespoon of chia seeds, 1 tablespoon of honey, and pour enough milk to fill the jar two-thirds. Cover the jars and shake to combine the ingredients. Put the pudding in the fridge overnight and eat it for breakfast.

If you want, when you serve it, you incorporate lemon zest into each jar of oatmeal and put a few blueberries in each portion.

Step 3. Good morning! Now you can start the day off right!
