No yogurt for breakfast :(

I've had really terrible digestive problems for months. Soooooo it finally occurred to me that I need to change something about the way I eat. Considering the possible culprits, I finally reached the conclusion that my daily breakfast routine of Greek yogurt and cereal may not be the best way to start my day, as there is a strong likelihood that I have lactose intolerance. So I tested my theory by eating no dairy products for a day, and found that, holy crap, my stomach didn't hurt NOR did I have any cramping or bloaty-ness!! It's now been three days and I am feeling loads better AND lighter. Yay!

Now I love Greek yogurt and cereal so the mere thought of changing up my breakfast routine had me seriously stressing out. BUT it has forced me to be creative in my breakfast-y creation game. Woo!! Most of this has involved just finding whatever I can in the kitchen and getting creative.

Super Healthy Delicious Powerhouse Oatmeal Yeah!

1/2 cup oats

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup almond milk

3 tablespoons raw hemp seeds

1 tablespoon chia seeds

sprinkling of almond slivers

a few dried strawberries for flava

drizzle of maple syrup (the real stuff - it's worth it)

Mix the oats with water and almond milk and microwave for 2.5 minutes. Then mix in everything else. Add additional ingredients at your own risk :)

(I would put a picture in here but the one I have doesn't look very appetizing. Trust me though, it's good stuff.)

Egg and Kale and Avocado and Goat Cheese Scramble

2 eggs

dash of liquid smoke

handful of kale

sun-dried tomatoes

sliced avocado

goat cheese

Scramble eggs just a bit, adding in a dash of liquid smoke. Scramble in the kale and sun-dried tomatoes. Put on a plate, top with avocado and sprinkle with goat cheese. (The picture below is sun-dried tomato-less, not because I ate them but because I didn't have them in the first place. I just thought it would be good to add them in.)
