On the 3rd day of Christmas, my trainer gave to me...

So here we are, the 3rd day of Christmas.
Santa day is getting closer, and I have 3 great festive breakfast ideas for you.  These will give you the energy you need to battle through the Xmas madness and keep you fueled for success over the festive period, or at least till lunch!


 Protein porridge with banana - I love porridge, especially in the winter, its hot, nutritious and verstile.

1 cup of oats
1 cup of semi skimmed (2%) milk.
Put both into a saucepan, put on the heat, keep stirring until it thickens and then add 1 scoop of protein powder, stir it in, and add a chopped banana, and eat!

You get:
34g protein
79g carbs
11g fat
3g fibre
and 585kcals.



Breakfast shake - great if you are in a rush!

Into a blender put, 250g yoghurt, top up with fresh orange juice (ideally not from concentrate), handful of mixed berries, 1 scoop of protein and a little squeeze of honey (about 2 teaspoons worth).

Blend, pour and drink!
You get:
38g protein
64g carbs
6g fat
8g fibre
and 425kcals.



Spicy scrambled eggs with veggies.

Dice up a couple of spring onions, a tomato and half a bell pepper, and put them into a hot pan with a little coriander and a little tumeric. Put your eggs into a bowl and whisk them up, adding about a tablespoon of Greek style yoghurt. Add this to the veggies and keep them moving while they cook.

Heat a tortilla for about 30 sec under the grill, spoon the egg mix onto the tortilla and wrap it up and eat!

You get:
15g protein
33g carbs
10g fat
2g fibre
and 333kcals


Enjoy!

Remember to come back tomorrow for the 3rd day of Christmas...
