Equipment

  • 1 saute pan
  • 1 Mixing Bowl

Ingredients
 
 

Mixed Berry Smoothie (610 Kcal)

  • 5 oz Frozen Mixed Berries
  • 1 small Banana
  • ½ cup Apple Juice
  • 7 oz Coconut Milk

Eggs and Avocado Breakfast (502 Kcal)

  • 1 tsp Butter
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 slice Wholegrain Bread
  • ½ Avocado sliced or smashed
  • 1 oz Smoked Salmon
  • Pea shoots or chives (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Smoothie

  • In a blender, combine the coconut milk, apple juice, banana, and frozen mixed berries. Blend until smooth, which should take approximately 15 to 20 seconds. Tip: To prevent separation, leave the smoothie in the blender and give it a quick pulse just before serving.

Eggs and Avocado

  • For the scrambled eggs, crack the 3 eggs into a bowl and beat them using a whisk or fork until they reach a smooth consistency.
  • Heat a large sauté pan over medium and melt the butter in it. Meanwhile, toast your slice of wholegrain bread.
  • Pour the beaten eggs into the sauté pan, gently stirring them with a spatula as they cook. When the eggs are nearly done according to your preference, turn off the heat. The remaining warmth will continue cooking the eggs slightly.
  • Prepare the avocado. If you like it sliced or smashed, do so now.

Assemble

  • Lay the avocado on the toasted wholegrain bread, followed by the scrambled eggs and smoked salmon. For a touch of color and flavor, optionally garnish with pea shoots or chives.
  • Give your smoothie another quick pulse in the blender, pour it into a glass, and it's ready to go.

Notes

  • Cooking Perfect Eggs: Constant stirring ensures fluffy, well-cooked eggs. Remove from heat just before they're fully set.
  • Smashed vs. Sliced Avocado: If you prefer smashed avocado to sliced, mash it in a bowl with a pinch of salt, extra virgin olive oil, and lime for enhanced flavor.
  • Wholegrain Bread Tip: Ensure your bread slice is hearty enough to support the toppings. For gluten sensitivities, a gluten-free option is available.
  • After a Workout: This breakfast is excellent post-exercise for muscle recovery and sustained energy.
