I love a nice oatmeal in the morning. I often alternate between regular and chocolate. But why not switch up not just the flavor, but the grain (or should I say, pseudo-grain?) you’re using as well? Quinoa is a tasty and nutritious alternative to regular oats for breakfast. Quinoa For Breakfast? I especially like this…

This is literally the best vegan chocolate cherry smoothie. I just call it the choc cherry and can’t get enough of it, even after years of making it. I have it at least every other morning to start my day right. While I found many smoothies not great for a lasting breakfast, this one is…
