My Go-To Breakfast

I'm continuing this Healthy Eats series by showing you my go-to breakfast, a delicious, filling, & healthy combination opt yogurt, cereal, & berries. If you're interested in watching a video about my other favorite breakfast, the Tone It Up protein pancake, you can find that here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dc8PPuibNNw

Here is my recipe for my go-to breakfast:

4 oz (about 1/2 cup) of organize Greek plain yogurt (I like Oikos by Stonyfield)
8 g (1 tsp) organize light agave nectar
1 oz (1/4 cup) Ezekiel 4:9 Golden Flax of Cinnamon Raisin whole grain cereal (a nice alternative is granola but it has a lot more calories)
6 oz (about 1 cup) of organic mixed berries

@myhousewifelife they dont carry that type of cereal do you think cheerios would be a good choice instead

[myhousewifelife]

@glitzygirl1234 I think you can use whichever cereal you prefer and it would be delicious!

Agave might be low-glycemic but it's pure fructose(~70%), therefore it's about the worst sweetener you can find. Eating much fructose, your body will shift in state of insulin resistance, your sugar metabolism will decrease etc. Most of fructose gets stored as body fat. Simple white sugar would be better, I'm not joking.

@bams3r From Wikipedia - "Agave nectar's glycemic index and glycemic load are comparable to fructose, which in turn has a much lower glycemic index and glycemic load than table sugar (sucrose)."

[Rolgnart]

WTF, it's not greek yogurt if it's 0% fat sorry to say lol.

A good breakfast for me that's got a mild amount of protein, and some good complex carbs, is plain oatmeal, just a serving, and a good squirt of agave nectar. That's it! It tastes similar to cinnamon roll instant stuff, just much healthier and you know what's in it. =]

HEY! Where oh where did you get the mug tree??? I have been looking everywhere trying to find one to put my Christmas mugs on. Nobody carries them anymore. Thanks!

just curious, how are you able to get through the morning on less than 300 calories? I probably am around the same height and weight as you, and I always need to eat 500+ calories for breakfast or I get really hungry within a couple of hours. this looks really good though. I really want to try that sprouted cereal. I have a thing for super whole grain products :P
