Recipe Story

We’re always told that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but how many of us actually take the time to sit down and enjoy a healthy and hearty breakfast? Watching your waistline doesn’t mean compromising on flavour and it’s crucial we get our breakfast right. Not only does breakfast kick start your metabolism, but a good breakfast fuels you and gets you ready for the day. Using Almond Breeze is the way forward this summer. This new almond milk is a delicious alternative to dairy milk and is made with Californian-grown almonds, boasting all their superfood goodness. The nuts are rich in protein, fibre and monounsaturated fat and are also a fantastic source of numerous important nutrients like bone-building calcium.
