A Hearty Breakfast

Breakfast is very important to a healthy lifestyle. It kick starts your metabolism in the morning after a good night's sleep. While anything is better than nothing, I have found that the heartier the breakfast is, the less likely I am to crave snacks all morning.

This morning I threw together some Irish Steel Cut Oatmeal with Creamy Peanut Butter, Banana, Chia Seeds & a splash of Vanilla Almond Milk (just to thin it out).  This brought me to a 430cal breakfast.  I added in a glass of 100% fruit juice as well which took my total to 560cals.  Below is a breakdown of my morning taken from a screen shot of LiveStrong.com which has been my life saver when trying to stick to a healthier eating plan.
