With
the recent change in weather my healthy "summer smoothie" kick has turn
into any and all "autumn comfort foods". Which not only makes my pants
fit a little tighter, it makes my quick and easy liquid breakfasts a
little harder to stomach. I mean, who wants to walk to work in the dark,
as the rain pours down, drinking a breakfast that's getting closer and
closer to the air temperature every day? Not me, that's who! But
somewhere between my summer smoothie go-to and winter oatmeal
on-the-run, somethings gotta give.
So
I created this perfect autumn parfait. The best thing is; its quick,
easy, and every woman can make it (and eat it) in under seven minutes
[bonus!]. It's best enjoyed by my comforting fire place and oh, and did I
mention it's healthy!What makes this so healthy, you ask?
Coconut Flakes [great source of iron, zinc and fibre]
Pumpkin Seed Flax Granola [great source of magnesium and zinc; adds a nice crunch!]
Agave Syrup [a natural plant-based sweetener; alternative to honey]
Plain Greek Yogurt [great source of protein, probiotics and vitamins - aids in weight loss]
Chia Seeds [natural energy booster with great source of omega's, vitamins + protein]
Raspberries [an antioxidant rich fruit that aids in weight management]
