Breakfast Ideas
1. Banana Breakfast Wrap
Ingredients:
- 1 sprouted whole grain tortilla
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond butter
- 1 banana, diced
Directions:
Spread almond butter on tortilla. Top with bananas and roll.
2. Oatmeal Alternative
Instead of sugary instant oatmeal, try a steal-cut oatmeal (look for products labeled gluten-free). Kasha cereal or buckwheat granolas are great choices.
