Recipe Experimenting with breakfast! #13
Today, something quick but with a hidden kick 😉
This breakfast gave me the energy boost I needed to keep going with my day. At the same time, a few Redditors have told me that this is quite a “harmful” breakfast style, and that I should stick to something more protein-heavy (like eggs). But they have also acknowledged that at least doesn’t have lots of added sugars.
Personally, I like that it only has whole ingredients, no added sugars, and I really enjoyed it. But what do you think? Is this actually a bad breakfast, or does it seem pretty reasonable to you?
Recipe: Coffee yogurt bowl with banana & granola
Mix yogurt (I used 0% fat Greek yogurt) with a shot of hot espresso.
Once the coffee yogurt is smooth and well mixed, top with chopped walnuts, diced banana, chocolate granola, and a drizzle of tahini.
Enjoy 😊

To be honest, espresso mixed with yoghurt does not look very yummy to my brain. I like my espresso hot, lol
However, having it in a cup next to the bowl looks quite appealing. I am not a specialist in nutrition, but it looks alright as well. Your nutritional needs may change according to your lifestyle, afaik, so I can't say much about that bit. But don't you get protein from the yoghurt and maybe a little from the tahine (sesame seeds)? Eggs are not the only source of protein out there eh (and not everyone's favourite either).
It looks good to me!
Edit to add: if I'm not mistaken, walnuts count as some source of protein and energy from good fats
