We try to follow a clean eating lifestyle on the weekdays and treat ourselves for cheat meals on the weekends. We haven't always eaten this way until last year and I'm so glad that we took the step to change. We feel healthier, lighter, and overall better. We love breakfast: Tocino and rice (Filipino breakfast food), eggs, bacon, and pancakes. It sucks that we don't get to eat those as often anymore but it's nice that we get to treat ourselves every now and then. During the week, we usually only have two choices for breakfast: oatmeal or yogurt. They are the easiest to pack for Chris to take to work and they're actually really delicious. I'll share my oatmeal recipe next week but this week I found this clean granola recipe on Pinterest. It was really good. I use it to top my yogurt and even great for snacking. I think the recipe is versatile but I didn't use all the 3 cups oats that it called for. I substituted some coconut flakes and a chia/hemp/barley cereal mix I purchased from Costco. I also substituted the applesauce for coconut oil as it had suggested. Yum! I'm actually out so I will be making them for next week's breakfast menu.
