Breakfast is a wonderful opportunity to fuel your body and mind, setting you up for a grounded and productive day ahead. 

As part of my morning ritual, I usually eat my breakfast once I get to the office alongside a little energy boost from my piccolo (one coffee a day before 10am… the JS Coffee rule!).

The secret to a truly satisfying breakfast lies in a powerful trio: protein, healthy fats and fibre. These key ingredients work together to help keep you feeling much fuller for longer, with a steady release of energy to power your day. It’s also so important for blood sugar control and helps to combat fatigue! 

Today, I’m sharing three balanced breakfast recipes that will keep you focused and nourished throughout the morning. Read on for all the delicious details…

Egg & Avocado Smash

My elevated twist on the OG avocado and boiled eggs! I’ve added in Greek yoghurt, Dijon plus chopped herbs for a protein-rich breakfast classic that keeps my energy levels stable and soaring. My tip: Boil a batch of eggs in advance for an easy, energising breakfast all week.

Ingredients: 

• 2 boiled eggs 
• ¼ avocado
• 1 tbsp Greek yoghurt, omit for dairy-free 
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 2 tbsp chopped herbs, we used dill & chives
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 piece sourdough bread, or two small

Method:

Place the eggs, avocado, yoghurt, dijon, herbs and lemon juice in a bowl. Season with sea salt and black pepper. 

Toast your sourdough and spread the smash on top. 

Time to cook: 10

Serves: 1

My Raspberry Protein Smoothie

This is one of my berry favourite morning go-tos. Fibre-packed bananas and raspberries, a scoop of JSHealth Vitamins Vanilla Bean Protein + Probiotics for a hit of protein, peanut butter for healthy fats, plus flaxseeds and cinnamon for an extra burst of flavour and fibre… divine!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup almond milk, or milk of choice

Method:

Combine all of the ingredients in a high speed blender. Blend until smooth and serve. 

Berry Yoghurt Bowl 

A nutrient-rich breakfast bowl I make on repeat! Starting with creamy Greek yoghurt for a protein-packed base, I add banana and berries for fibre, swirl in peanut butter for fatty acids and top it off with ground flaxseeds and mixed seeds for a source of healthy fats plus an extra fibre boost.

Ingredients:

• 160-200g Greek yoghurt, or yoghurt of choice 
• ½ banana, sliced 
• ½ cup berries 
• 2 tsp peanut butter 
• 1 tsp ground flaxseeds
• 2 tsp mixed seeds, we used pumpkin & hemp seeds
• 1 tsp honey, optional

Place the yoghurt in a serving bowl. Top with the remaining ingredients and serve.
