Revitalize your mornings with these citrus breakfasts
What's the story
Starting your day on a refreshing note with a burst of citrus can be a great way to energize your mornings.
Apart from being packed with vitamin C, citrus fruits also provide other nutrients that can enhance your immunity and improve digestion.
Adding these fruits into quick breakfast options can help you begin your day on a healthy note without sitting in the kitchen for long.
Smoothie delight
Citrus smoothie bowl
A refreshing citrus smoothie bowl is another easy yet healthy breakfast idea.
Blend together oranges, bananas, and a splash of almond milk till smooth.
Pour the mixture into a bowl and top it with slices of kiwi, chia seeds, and granola for texture.
This colorful bowl is rich in vitamins and fiber, making it perfect for those who want to stay energetic through the morning.
Layered goodness
Grapefruit parfait
Grapefruit parfaits are equally delicious and pretty.
Begin by layering Greek yogurt at the bottom of a glass or a jar.
Add segments of grapefruit, followed by another layer of yogurt.
Top it off with some honey and crushed nuts for the crunchiness.
The parfait gives you protein from the yogurt, and antioxidants from the grapefruit, making it a perfect start to your day.
Zesty oats
Lemon oatmeal
Lemon oatmeal gives a refreshing twist to the regular oats.
Cook oats normally but add freshly squeezed lemon juice while cooking for added flavor.
Stir some honey or maple syrup for sweetness if you like. Garnish with lemon zest and berries before serving.
The combination of oats' slow-releasing energy and lemon's refreshing taste makes this dish perfect for busy mornings.
Toasted fusion
Orange avocado toast
Orange avocado toast marries creamy avocados with juicy oranges on whole-grain bread slices—an unexpected but delicious combination.
Mash some ripe avocados onto toasted bread slices, then lay thinly sliced oranges on top of them before sprinkling salt or pepper as per taste.
This combination gives you healthy fats from avocados as well as vitamin-rich oranges, keeping you full for longer while relishing every bite.
