Breakfast today

Been having this recently - heaped teaspoons of these accomplices added to the porridge. Have been adding a little sugar as the cacao can be quite strong (need to get some dried fruit instead).

It looks/sounds very appetizing - and healthy of course. You'll be up and running around in no time at all

[realturbo in reply to shaws]

Not so keen on running, prefer a bit of cycling on a nice day

Perfect combo. I eat all this myself.

I'm hoping to improve my microbiome which in turn will lead to benefits such as reduced anxiety and better mood. The cacao might also help with my high bp...

You can buy cacao powder at a good price from Costco if you're a member. The linseed was also good value from Lidl.

Yes, a few blueberries or a bit of maple syrup or honey would be excellent. Have you ever tried steel cut oats? It is great.

[realturbo in reply to Heloise]

Not tried the steel cut oats, just googled it - seems they are quite expensive? Any suggestion where I can buy them at a reasonable price?

[Heloise in reply to realturbo]

Do you have coops or places you buy from a bin? I'm surprised since they are not as processed and are a good whole food. Some health food stores may carry it.

[realturbo in reply to Heloise]

Might give these ones a try

Some of the comments seem to suggest that pinhead oats are the same as steel cuts...

[Heloise in reply to realturbo]

Yes, I think those are the same. Soak overnight and they cook pretty quickly in the morning. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
