So, I’ve been embarking on a journey to clean up my diet. For the past two weeks or so, I’ve been working on eating breakfast. Sounds simple, yes. But it really hasn’t been.  Oh sure, I’ve been eating breakfast - but I wait. Sometimes it’s two hours before I actually bother. In order to boost metabolism, breakfast should be eaten right after waking up.

The only rule is that breakfast should contain plenty of fiber, fruit, and a good protein source. Here are some ideas:

• Smoothie - Made with frozen berries, soy milk, protein powder, and flax seeds.
• Oatmeal - My favorite is old fashioned oatmeal with dried fruit and almonds
• Cereal - Choose something high in  fiber and low in sugar. I use soy milk but you can use skim milk. To make it a complete breakfast, add fresh berries and nuts.
• Eggs - This is an excellent breakfast. I like to serve it with a mushroom saute and whole wheat toast.

What are your favorite breakfasts?
