Green Smoothie Breakfast Bowl
This week saw me catch a small head cold. The doctor says it’s an upper respiratory infection but I already feel much better. I also went for a Covid-19 test, and praise God, I don’t have the virus.
When I feel under the weather I tend to eat as much fruit and vegetables as I can, because I strongly believe that my body heals faster when I eat more plants. But I didn’t anticipate losing my appetite.
On Wednesday I stared at my breakfast until after 11am, so yesterday I decided to make an exciting protein bowl that tasted just as amazing as it looks. I also made a bowl of oats with peanut butter and dates for added energy. This combination kept me energized and full for hours.
