Introducing one of my favorite breakfast recipes. It
might seem a little strange at first, but wait until you try it! As
illustrated above, there are three simple ingredients, one banana, one
avocado and one spoonful of cinnamon. I’ve found that most breakfast
foods are high in carbohydrates- most of them sugary or high glycemic,
like cereals, croissants, muffins, pastries, etc. So this was my yummy
alternative and it’s served me really well, with energy to last the
whole morning.
The magic is that when paired, the avocado’s good fat act to slow the
digestion of the natural sugars and fiber of the banana and brings a
more even release of the sugar that works well with insulin. The result
is I get to have something a little sweeter in the morning that doesn’t
cause a sugar spike and gives me energy until lunch. I know I look
forward to this meal every morning and I think you will you too. Try me,
I’ve gotten some “whatever”s and eye rolls from friends and family at first only
to hear later that they love it and eat it nearly every day. Let me know what you think!
Happy eating,
Gina
