what breakfast looks like for me lately

Prioritizing fiber, protein, and healthy fats.

I only used one 5oz salmon and cut it in half.

Cottage cheese, spinach, one egg on top of a little cheese, and sourdough bread.

It feels good to eat and not feel sluggish.

... Read moreLately, I've been focusing on balancing my breakfast to include fiber, protein, and healthy fats, which really helps me maintain energy throughout the morning without feeling weighed down. Incorporating a 5oz portion of salmon, split in half, adds a great source of omega-3 fatty acids and high-quality protein. I often pair this with cottage cheese and fresh spinach for fiber and calcium, topped with an egg cooked on a bit of cheese for extra richness and nutrients. A slice of sourdough bread rounds out the meal, providing slow-digesting carbs that keep hunger at bay. This combination has made a noticeable difference in how I feel after breakfast—I no longer experience the mid-morning slump or sluggishness. Prioritizing nutrient-dense ingredients like these not only supports my energy levels but also helps with overall wellness. If you're looking to upgrade your morning meal, focusing on these macro and micronutrients can be a simple yet effective approach. I've also found that the variety keeps breakfast exciting. Sometimes, I swap spinach for kale or add some fresh herbs to keep things fresh. By tailoring my meals to include these wholesome ingredients, eating well becomes sustainable and enjoyable, rather than a chore.
