Pumpkin Seed Granola with Almonds

By Molly Madigan Pisula, the pastry chef 

I love this dish because it’s packed with protein (lots of nuts and seeds in there!), and you can make it in advance. Eat it by itself, or grab a yogurt cup and pour some granola on top.

Blackberry Cheesecake Smoothie

By Chef Alicia Shevetone

Blackberries might not be your first choice of berry, but perhaps that should change. Blackberries are extremely rich in fiber (about five grams in two-thirds of a cup) as well as vitamins C and K. Blackberry seeds are also a good source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and fiber. Because of the health benefits of the seeds and other berry components, whole berries are preferable to smooth strained purée for your recipes.

Ingredients:

Method

ADDITION TIP: This is not an overly sweet smoothie. The blackberries add a certain tartness, so drinking a large amount won’t be overwhelming. You could use this entire recipe as one serving and enjoy a quick 754-calorie meal.

Seasonal Chia Parfait

Daniella Hunter, creator of Real Coconut Kitchen restaurants (with locations in Malibu & Tulum), author of Nourish Yourself, Nourish Our World cookbook & founder of SANA Foods recommends a Seasonal Chia Parfait for a hearty but nutritious bite 

Serves: 4

Although this seems like a bit of work to put together, if your chia jam and coconut yogurt are already made, it’s actually an easy (and very impressive!) make-ahead breakfast option. I love to mix this up, using whatever fruits are in season for the jam and topping–apples or pears in the winter, stone fruit or berries in the summer. If you’re making this for a crowd, or just don’t feel like fussing with individual jars, feel free to assemble this in one large bowl instead.

Ingredients:

Method:

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, vanilla, and coconut milk until combined; refrigerate for a couple of hours.
  2. Follow with a layer of jam and a layer of yogurt in equal proportions to fill the jar.
  3. Top with berries and mint just before serving.

Blueberry Chia Jam

Method

  1. Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and cook over medium flame for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
  2. Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Berry and Kale Yogurt Smoothie 

By Kenzo, retired cook & passionate food blogger

The most important thing our gut needs in the morning is probiotics and antioxidants to protect our bodies from everyday toxins. 

To make sure your body gets all the right nutrients without you having to cook several dishes, the best idea is to put all the necessary ingredients in a blender and turn it into a smoothie.  This fulfilling Berry and Kale Yogurt Smoothie will give you all the nutrients accompanied with a delicious flavor that’ll leave you wanting more! 

Ingredients

Directions 

  1. In a blender, put all the ingredients except water and blend at a low speed. You might need to use the pulse option initially to ensure everything gets enough time and space to combine thoroughly. 
  2. At this point, your smoothie will have a thick consistency. So, scrape the walls of the jug and add a little bit of water. Blend again while slowly adding more water till you get the desired consistency. 
  3. Pour the smoothie into a tumbler and screw the lid on tightly. There you have it, a quick, easy, and healthy breakfast recipe that you can have on the go.
