As someone who thought she could manage her days without a breakfast because lunches and dinners mattered more, the irony of it all is that I absolutely love making and eating a breakfast.
Just something to dedicate and cook over the weekend.
It is a celebratory meal. It’s a lot of thought, effort, and love.
So if you’ve ever shared a breakfast with me on a weekend, just know you are loved. And my ultimate go-to is healthy and hearty Sunday breakfast. A tailored and balanced version of a fry-up. Anything griddle/tawa based with whatever’s at hand. anchored by protein, beans, veggies, fruit, and carbs.
Today’s plate? Pancakes with maple syrup, mango and apples, egg whites and two gorgeous pork sausages—one classic, one with leek and garlic, which along with the baked beans count as some vegetables right?
Could the plate use a garlicky steamed spinach or mushrooms? Maybe some grilled tomatoes? Absolutely! When its at hand and definitely for another time.
All cooked with compassion and served with a whole lot of love.
Here’s hoping your Sunday is slow, thoughtful, and delicious.
