If
anyone asks me where would I like to go this season, my answer would
certainly be either Brazil for FIFA 2014 or Scotland for the largest
multi-sport event, 2014 Commonwealth Games. With 4,950 athletes,
belonging to 71 countries, participating in 17 different events,
would be worth watching. Isn't it? I'm sure we all will be very busy
enjoying the wonderful games from 23 July to 3 August, 2014. An
athlete is judged by his wellness and fitness, the exercises involved
and the food that he/she eats. So why don’t we have a look on some
healthy athletes recipe, it will be fun and you can also add-on to
your list of food. Here are 3 healthy breakfast or brunch recipes.
Nut
Berry Oatmeal
-
It is a common saying, “Eat breakfast like a king”. I completely
agree with this statement. We must begin our day with something
healthy. What could be a better option other than nut berry oatmeal?
This is a quick and easy recipe, it is loaded with nutrients as well.
The simple breakfast requires skim milk, oatmeal, flaxseed meal,
berries of your choice, nuts of your choice and brown sugar or honey.
Go for it if you are a real fitness freak. You just require to boil
the milk first, add oatmeal and flaxseed meal and keep stirring on
low heat till the desired consistency is reached. Pour into the
breakfast bowl and top up with berries and nuts. For more nutritious
burst, you can also add seasonal fruits to it. Enjoy the healthy
treat!
Kiwi-Avocado
Smoothie with Lime and Honey:-
Breakfast is incomplete without smoothie. The first thing that comes
to our mind while thinking about health is smoothie. Isn’t it?
Smoothy is a great way of including seasonal fruits/vegetables in
your diet as it's very nutritious. Kiwi-avocado smoothie is a healthy
way out. The combination not only boosts up the nutritional value but
it's tasty as well, when accompanied by honey and lime. Yummzz!! All
you need to do is, blending ripe avocado, kiwi, lime juice, honey and
milk of your choice (Almond milk, soy milk, coconut milk). Add
two-three ice cubes, though I consume it in purest form. This
combination is very popular among fitness freaks, I personally love
it. :)
Chard
and Bacon Quiche
-
Whether, it’s breakfast or brunch, quiche is something I love to
relish. All you require is purple onion, Swiss chard, bacon slices,
lowest calorie cheese or vegan cheese and eggs. Infact, you can use
spinach plus chard. There are variety of vegan cheese available in
the market. You can combine all the ingredients and bake them. And
here you are with the yummy delight. This can be served with low-fat
dip of your choice, salads and toasts. You can add variant of this
also by adding boiled peas, I do this. It drives me crazy :P
Enjoy
Commonwealth Games 2014!
