Raw Breakfasts

My sister Kylie (A.K.A. Zippaloo) of AllThingsFood, like me, enjoys eating a high Raw diet but has implemented eating 75%+ Raw one full day each week. Here are a few breakfasts inspired by her:

Cantaloupe and Bananas with Cinnamon, Peanut Butter and Coconut

Here’s a great recipe by Kylie on how to make your own Nut or Seed butter.

Raw Oats with Almond Milk, Almonds, Cinnamon, Coconut, and Goji Berries

Raw Oats

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 Cup Oats
  • 1/4 Cup Water
  • 1/3 Cup Nut or Almond Milk
  • Optional: Agave, Raisins, Dates, Nuts, Seeds, Coconut, Ground Flax Seeds, Chia Seeds, Cinnamon or other Spices

Directions:

  • Put everything in a bowl and cover overnight.
  • In the morning you can add fresh fruit if you’d like.

Note:

  • Play around with the ratios of water and milk to find what you like. (I’m still doing this.)

Bananas with Homemade Sesame Seed Butter, Cinnamon, and Coconut, Oranges, and Papaya

Breakfast with Coconut Water

Yes, that is papaya you see! I’m starting to finally like it!

Fruit Cup and Coconut Water

Not Pictured are my breakfasts of Chia Pudding. Either the photos look awful or I forget to take photos at all. But I’m digging Chia Pudding a lot lately. I make it with Almond or Soy Milk, Chopped Nuts, Coconut, Goji Berries, sometimes dates or agave, and lots of spices (Cinnamon and Cardamom are two favorites).

I’m not all that hungry most mornings for a heavy duty breakfast, but I know it’s important to eat something, so I do and pair it with some Coconut Water. (I hope I can find some good stuff when I’m back in the US!) I eat every few hours so what I don’t get in terms of protein first thing in the morning, I get soon after. I am really into seeds and nuts though, so as you can see I add them in chopped, drink their milk, or eat their butter (which I’ve started making thanks to my Kylie).
