5 Simple Plant-Based Breakfast Recipes that Pack a Huge Nutrient Punch

When you wake up in the morning, Pooh," said Piglet at last, "what's the first thing you say to yourself?" "What's for breakfast?" said Pooh. "What do you say, Piglet?" "I say, I wonder what's going to happen exciting today?" said Piglet. Pooh nodded thoughtfully. "It's the same thing," he said.   - A.A. Milne


3 Tips for Starting Your Morning Right

A good night's sleep allows the body to recharge, but breakfast is the perfect time to reset. Work on forming these 3 morning time habits to set the tone for a productive, and healthful day. 

1) Make your bed. Boom! It's not even 8 am and you've already done something productive. Better yet, tonight when you're ready to crash you'll have a neat cozy bed to flop into. 

2) When you brush your teeth, say out loud one thing you are grateful for. Even if it's something small, like "I'm grateful for the way my toothpaste tastes." This small act of intentional gratitude sets a sunny tone for your day to come. 

3) Eat a big breakfast. Filling up on whole, fiber-filled and nutrient-dense foods first thing in the morning helps to stabilize your blood sugar and leads to less over-consumption of calories throughout the day. Whole carbs also give you the energy you need to power through your busy life.
