Mediterranean Rainbow Breaky Bowl
This breakfast will have you achieving your daily nutrition goals before you even leave the house! It's a super healthy combination of proteins, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates with a load of antioxidants, phytochemicals and probiotics!
So many of the ingredients in this recipe are on the best friends for skin health list. Tomatoes, broccoli, avocado, spinach, fermented foods and seeds all featured on our list of top skin foods for various reasons. Tomatoes for their lycopene content (a powerful antioxidant which helps to protect skin from UV damage), broccoli for many reasons, but particularly for the phytochemical sulforaphane avocado for the skin nourishing monounsaturated fats and vitamin E, and spinach for fibre, folate, and iron. Fermented foods like sauerkraut contain probiotics and are great for gut health - which affects every aspect of health, including absorption of essential nutrients and detoxification which will help to keep skin clear and radiant!
Protein is also essential for skin structure and health, so the eggs deliver a good source of protein as well as healthy fats in the yolk. Hemp Seeds and Pepitas also provide some protein and a good concentrated dose of nutrients - it's amazing how much extra nutrition you can pack into a meal with an enthusiastic sprinkle of seeds!
We've also included Vegan Nutritional Savoury Flakes in this dish. Not only are they a really tasty garnish, but they also bring a massive amount of nutrients to the table! Particularly your B vitamins. B vitamins are essential for cell metabolism and having adequate levels of B vitamins helps to ensure you can actually get energy and nutrients out of your food.
A small sized frypan with a lid works best for cooking the eggs and broccolini, but you can certainly work around it with a bigger fry pan.
