Breakfast is by far my favorite meal of the day.  I wake up ready to eat.  And I usually eat twice before 10am.  Several weeks ago I asked all of you readers on Facebook what you wanted to see more of.  Breakfast ideas was one of the answers.  So here you go: 28 Awesome REAL FOOD Breakfast ideas.

Below I have listed some really amazing,  grain-free breakfast ideas.  I included a few properly-prepared grain breakfast ideas towards the end for those who enjoy a little grain in the morning.  Buen provecho!

    So excited I found this site on fb post by a lunchbox post today. I have been told by my holistic dermatologist to eat better. I have some skin issues. So anyway, I told her unusually eat wheaties with a spoon of sugar in the morning. Or a scrabbled egg. My kids are both picky and usually want pancakes or cereal. My husband isn’t picky. Anyway, I looked at the yum recipes and decided my goal is to try one a week. Yippee. I can’t wait! Thanks again. I really wouldn’t think of these things!

      Yay! I’m glad that you found me. I am always looking for new ideas for food too. You might be surprised how kids adapt to healthier eating when we get creative. 🙂

  • 💗 resilience is the ability to cope with and adapt to challenges and change • doing hard things every day helps grow your resilience muscle • the magic happens in the consistent daily habits • life doesn’t get easier• you have to get more steadfast and strong 💪💗
  • 🏋🏼 1 in 2 people in the US will develop cancer • what the actual heck? • while there are many factors that affect this, genetics is only about 5% 

🏋🏼 what can you do? • build a lifestyle  that decreases your risk daily 

🏋🏼 there are many things that are out of your control • here are the things you CAN control: 

• your diet 
• your sleep 
• the amount of exercise you do 
• the amount of drainage/detox support you do 
• the amount of daily toxins you come in contact with in your home environment (food, air, water, personal care/cleaning products) 

🏋🏼 be proactive • your future health depends on it • you got this 💗
  • 💪💗 take radical ownership of your own life and health • don’t wait for other people to dictate what’s good for you or your family • especially if they have a financial interest in the things they are advocating or mandating • you know what’s best for you 💗

☕️ a coffee enema involves introducing organic, mold free coffee into the colon • the caffeine stimulates the liver and gall bladder to push out bile which carries toxins from your liver into your colon • it also helps the liver produce more glutathione, which is your master antioxidant • besides increased liver detoxification and glutathione production, coffee enemas also can :

- cleanse the bowels 
- improve digestion
- increase bile flow/gall bladder function 
- flush out parasites 
- help with clearer skin 

🏋️‍♂️ lifting heavy weights fires up the metabolism and helps increase lean muscle • muscle is the economy of aging • having a strong metabolism reduces risk for insulin resistance, diabetes, cancer, cardiac issues, dementia, and other chronic conditions • it also gives you more energy, a better mood, and a stronger, more resilient body as you age
