a good day starts

with a good breakfast...
and since i found this Mexican gigantic

Brombeere
Blackberries
Moras negras


[look at their size compared to my hand!]

so i decided to use them in a

super-Frühstück
super-breakfast
super-desayuno

all the ingredients here are very healthy food
i linked some of their benefits
please click and read them!

every day i realize more the importance of
feeding oneself with the proper foods
the chemistry in our bodies reflects in every
aspect of our lives... i many times indulge in
not so very healthy food... but it is comforting
to notice that after eating healthier food for
as little as 1 or 2 weeks, i start feeling with
more energy, lighter, and even happier...
mmm, body chemistry!

now for that delicious healthy breakfast

ingredients

1 cup of low-fat (1%) Kefir milk
1/2 cup (or more) of delicious blackberries
1/4 cup of walnuts
1 tablespoon of Maple syrup




just cut the berries if the are too big
and mix them with the Kefir milk
chop the walnuts and sprinkle with the maple syrup

i use Grade B maple syrup, which is less processed than
grade A, but has this nutty almost "tree-like" flavor
mmm, and has to be Canadian or from Vermont
the experts in maple syrup regions

oh, mouthwatering!



and here some healthy alternatives
in case you don't find the ingredients

if you don't have Kefir milk, use low or fat-free yogurt
if you don't have berries, use any other chopped fruit
if you don't have walnuts, use any other nut
if you don't have maple syrup, use regular bee honey

and this is delicious as a dessert too!

Why is this milk called "Kefir"? If I am not totally wrong a kefir is the kind of felt hat, looking like a flowerpot, being worn by men in Morocco.

Those blackberries are really impressive. Another king-size. We are living here in a strawberry region and I have the impression they are getting a little bigger every year. In five years they might have reached the size of small apples.

Unfortunately, they taste less and less. Right now its already like eating expensive grass.

Hope that does not apply to those blackb. on your photo.

hola dear Georg
here finally I am back! heh heh

and I think you are right about the meaning of Kefir, and i think that's why the call this fermented food Kefir, because it's supposed to make you feel good... we should double check, i will soon...

and yes I have had the same experience as you with big and flavorless strawberries here in California, too, but gladly, not always the over-sized berries are tasteless

but fortunately these big blackberries were still very tasty and flavorful, but also these 2 i selected were the biggest from the batch, not all were so big... like you, i don't trust those too big, but this package seem more from a medium species, but just a few weirdos, they were delicious ;)

will reply to you soon Georg

have a good week!
