What do we eat for breakfast? - People ask us what we eat for breakfast if we don't eat wheat or dairy. Again, this did not happen overnight for us but over the years we have found the products that work well for us. Once you find something you like it is usually easy to find it again. We try and avoid eating the exact same thing every day to provide some variety in our diet. Here are some ideas...
Here are some wheat and dairy free alternatives for breakfast:
Oatmeal--we buy organic oatmeal and this can be prepared in 5 mins or so...I like a little nutmeg and cinnamon in mine and sometimes will use 1/2 water and 1/2 almond milk. I've also added apples, raisins and a little agave or maple syrup but not if I've already added fruit. I have tried a little apple juice as a sweetener as well and it works (but not too much).
Wheat free cereals with almond milk--the company Nature's Path has a lot to offer. There are different types of granola that are also wheat free. Just watch the sugar content though...we try and avoid anything with more than 10 grams per serving. Spelt flakes are good with some frozen blueberries and sometimes I will mix a few different ones together for variety.
Ezekiel bread or English muffins--this excerpt is taken from the food for life website. (Should be easy to cut and copy to the website). These can be found in the freezer of the organic section or some health food stores.
