Another protein and low carb breakfast idea

Another protein and low carb breakfast idea.

Scrambled eggs with spinach, avocado and tomatoes. You could leave a 12 hours interval before you eat your breakfast,  after your last meal the eve before.  This gives your digestion a chance to rest. 16-18 hours is an optimum gap if you're on a weight loss journey. On 2 consecutive days for the best result.

Spinach, avocado and tomatoes are all good slow release carbs eaten together with the protein of the eggs.  Tomatoes contain the antioxidant lycopene which has been linked to many health benefits including reduced risk of heart disease and cancer. They also contain Vit C and Vit K.

My wheat free low carb and protein breakfast

My wheat free low carb and protein breakfast.

The chef in the cafe who cooked breakfast this morning was obviously feeling creative with the chillies.
2 poached eggs on crushed avocado with chillies and wilted spinach. No toast and an espresso.

Healthy low carb and protein fishy lunch by the sea

Healthy low carb and protein fishy lunch by the sea.

Prawns and smoked salmon on a bed of leaves with cucumber,  olives, tomatoes and avocado.
A light dressing of creme fraiche and herbs. 
Smoked salmon and prawns are both goods ources of Omega 3 fatty acids and unsaturated fat. Unsaturated fats can help improve your blood cholesterol levels when you eat them in place of saturated orctrans fats. Omega 3 can reduce inflammation and reduce risk of heart disease.

Even the simplest of food looks more appetizing when presented prettily on the plate

Even the simplest of food looks more appetizing when presented prettily on the plate.

Portion control is important when making how you eat a lifestyle choice not a diet. 
A smaller portion styled attractively on a small plate will make you feel you've still eaten well and satisfied. 
Parma ham with fresh figs and green pesto ( basil, pine nuts, garlic and olive oil)  dressing and salad leaves.

A healthy breakfast sets you up for the day

A healthy breakfast sets you up for the day.

Hot water and lemon first. 
Avocado on sourdough toast (complex carbs)
Poached eggs ( protein) 
Watercress ( iron) 
A single Espresso coffee (better with food than on an empty tum as it affects your own natural energy resources)

Pad Thai dinner served up with a swan decoration made from apples

Pad Thai dinner served up with a swan decoration made from apples. 
One of my favourite Thai dishes of rice noodles, bean shoots, chopped peanuts, king prawns, and lime juice, chillies, fish sauce, galangal, coriander, Thai basil and a tiny pinch of palm sugar to flavour.

Wednesday filming day

Wednesday filming day.

Even when you're filming a TV commercial in a studio and breakfast is served up for the crew members,  it's possible not to choose the bacon butty but have the healthy protein and low carb option.
