Not such a gloomy morning after all


You know that feeling when you wake up after a lie in at 7.30am, stretch your muscles and smile to yourself at the thought of having a day off? Yeah... You've planned a trip to the park, a long walk or being a tourist in your city, you've promissed yourself to stay active all day.

Well then, there is nothing more annoying than having that perfect day off ruined by British weather. The gloominess will mess up your mood and kill your motivation. With so many plans, that's the last thing I needed.
And with the view from my window looking like this today:


I had to act quick. 
But quick doesn't have to mean boring. You don't have to stick to the boring cereal only because you've got no time. Breakfast should be cherished as it gears us up for the day ahead.
Today I've spent 5-7min preparing mine and it sure gave me motivation to get going and complete all the tasks I've planned for today.
So here it is...






BRUNCH OF CHAMPIONS: SALMON, EGG AND AVOCADO and BACON AND EGG OPEN SANDWICHES

Start off with preparing yourself your favourite hot drink. For me it's got to be a smooth and light latte. No sugar though! Xylitol instead (no sugar, far less calories, far more benefits, still awesome taste).

Toast two medium slices of multigrain/wholemeal/granary bread.
Scramble two eggs (I do it without any milk, just eggs, black pepper and a pinch of salt) and grill two rashers of bacon. 

Peel and slice half of a super-ripe avocado and arrange it on one of the toasts. Drizzle with lemon juice. Then dish half of your eggs onto avocado and place salmon slices on top. A tiny bunch of cress will add it colour (something you definitely need on a gloomy morning) and nutrients. 

Slightly butter the other toast and dish the rest of scrambled eggs onto it. Arrange crispy bacon on top and decorate with spinach leaves.





ENJOY AND GO CONQUER THE WORLD!
