I don't know about you, but weekday breakfast is always difficult for me. I'm never THAT hungry when I wake up but know I should/need to eat something before I start my day. If I don't eat something with enough substance, I'm usually going to regret what I put into my body when I woke up because I'm hungry too soon.
How do I prevent this from happening? I've been experimenting with finding new ways to make breakfast appealing. It all actually started when I tried Sakara Life recently. If you're unfamiliar with Sakara Life, i'll explain what it is to you. Sakara life is a plant based company that provides breakfast, lunch and dinner (fully prepared) and ready to eat. They are innovative and make clean eating fun and interesting. I particularly found their breakfast to be absolutely amazing and I'm 100% obsessed.
The week I tried their service, I woke up excited for breakfast and each meal was so filling that i barely felt hungry for lunch. They were delicious and interesting but I haven't had their meals for the past week so I've been feeling a little bummed about what to eat when I wake up. Good news is I'll be enjoying their breakfast again next week!! But until then, I've created a muffin that reminded me of one of theirs and I'm super pumped to eat tomorrow morning.
P.S. If you're interested in trying Sakara Life, you can get 20% off your first ordered meal plan or 10 day reset by using my code: XOAMANDABAKER. It's totally worth the investment and I loved every meal. If you've never tried plant based eating before...this might be the time to get started!!
Anyway...onto the recipe I've created!
