Sunday Morning Breakfasts

One of the aspects of life that are better to be enjoyed than skipped are Sunday morning breakfasts. On a particular Sunday morning, the awakening world of nature inspired a flavorful, nutritious breakfast starting with a smoothie. It was made by blending dinosaur kale fresh from the garden, a banana, and frozen fruits including peaches, strawberries, blueberries and blackberries. This interesting mix of ingredients had a seedy texture and its presentation was somewhat boring.
The main course of this meal was a vegetable, cheese, and canadian bacon omelet. Along with cheddar cheese and canadian bacon, this egg was filled with bell peppers and onions. The egg was well done with an even cooking while the vegetables caramelized on the inside. Though this was not a new idea, the flavors complemented each other well.
To go with the main dish was a slice of toast coated with butter and then sprinkled with a cinnamon and sugar topping. The bread was lightly toasted, yet crunchy and was not overpowered by the sugar on top. Cut diagonally, the presentation of the toast was fun and simple.

The last course of the meal was a dessert including raspberries, strawberries and whipped cream. The whipped cream was homemade by mixing sugar and heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer. The berries added fresh flavor to the cream and tasted sweet, but not untasteful. This dessert was a great way to end a delicious meal mixed with healthy ingredients as well as sweet ones. This meal was definitely the right was to start off a Sunday morning!
