I love mornings spent with a hot cup of coffee and time to read.
Almost always one cup turns into two cups and before you know it, I’ve missed breakfast or I eat something reeeeally late.
My daughter recently shared an article about how we coffee drinkers should really think about eating breakfast before diving into that piping hot pot of coffee. The article is titled; “Do you drink coffee in the morning on an empty stomach”, well yeah! I do as a matter of fact or I did until I read the article. It made a good point and since it didn’t suggest I do anything strange other than eating my breakfast before drinking coffee, I thought it wouldn’t hurt to try.
I have a lot of friends and a husband who don’t have time or don’t take the time to eat anything in the morning. Now I have to say that even though I might eat late, I typically always eat breakfast. Sometimes it’s a meal replacement shake and sometimes it’s a hot meal.
So in the spirit of holding myself and others accountable for; a) eating breakfast and b) eating before indulging in a few cups of java, I thought I would share one of my favorite breakfast recipes. It’s super simple, quick and easy…and it’s just ‘slap yo mama’ delish!
Hope you love it!
