This morning I woke up sore and starving. Welcome to training day #4.
Enter large first meal. I don’t usually wake up hungry, but this morning I was craving vegetables and protein.
See? There are veggies under there. I sautéed zucchini and orange bell pepper in coconut oil with a bit of sea salt and cracked pepper. 2 fried eggs on top for protein. Side of Seeduction toast (from WF) with a smear of Earth Balance.
Holy moly this red plum was the BEST fruit I’ve had all summer long. WF only had about 5 left and I snagged 3 of those. I don’t think I’ve ever had a red plum before but this thing was perfectly ripe, tart, juicy with a touch of sweetness.
This breakfast was the perfect balance. I could eat it again today.
So back to training. Last night I was very sore. Today is cross training day and I will be going to yoga in place of the elliptical. I hope yoga counts as cross training. It’s going to be a lovely stretch and sweat session.
What do you usually crave first thing in the morning? Sweet or savory? I usually have an internal battle every morning trying to decide what I want.
Bon Appétit,
That Foodie Girl
What exactly is Seduction Bread? I see eat it a lot.
It’s SEEDuction bread! It’s one of their house loaves, baked daily. It’s a whole grain bread (I believe?) with lots of different seeds, and it’s got a hint of sweetness. You’d love it!
ok SEEDuction makes sense now. I was like seduction bread?? is it really that good? haha
I usually only have 1/2 a cup of my homemade yogurt with a few drops of dark chocolate flavored stevia each morning. On occasion I’ll buy some Noosa yogurt, with the honey and peach flavors being my favorite.
Now brunch is a different matter entirely.
Back when I was still in Dallas, I became a regular at Flippin’ Out Crepes and Coffee in Addison for my Sunday brunches. I was able to get Sweet, Savory, and Breakfast crepes to satisfy whatever my mood each time.
I have been dying to try Flippin’ Out Crepes! I guess I need to hurry up and do that!
My favorite items on their menu are the Philly Cheese Crepe, (the Gulf Coast Crepe comes in second), and their Strawberry Cheesecake Crepe for dessert.
If you would be so kind, when you go, please tell Chef Scott I say hello, and that I miss visiting them.
