Breakfast on the GO!

Breakfast is the most important meal of your day. One has to remember that your body has been fasting all night as long as you were asleep & what better way to kick start your metabolism with a healthy breakfast first thing in the morning.

Most people always complain about the time factor when it comes to preparing a good healthy breakfast or we often hear people say, "I can't eat that early".

Well here is something that will not only get your metabolism up and running but will also supply you with the nutrients and antioxidants your body needs to free itself from free radicals. It's quick and easy to make and can even be taken with you in the car on your way to work on those mornings when you find yourself running a few minutes late :-)

  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
