Winter has arrived, and this means darker mornings and colder days. Although it may be the perfect time to get all cosied up before spring arrives and the sunshine starts to seep back into our windows, it can be quite easy to get a little too cosy, making it more of a struggle for us to rise in the morning feeling fresh and energised.
For those who are feeling particularly attached to their bed at the moment, and continue to cling unto the covers whilst your alarm goes off, these delicious breakfast recipes may be just be the inspiration you need to lure you out of your room and into a positive day. These recipes are also nutrient dense, therefore they will leave you feeling energised, nourished, and radiant!
Here are 3 delicious vegan recipes to warm you up each winter morning:
Sassy Shakshuka
Shakshuka is both warming and highly wholesome. Whilst being easy to make, Shakshuka is also a seamless (and delicious) way to get in most of your 5 A DAY as soon as your day begins.
Tomatoes are the star of the show in this recipe, and this vibrant vegetable is rich in lycopene and vitamin C, both of which have been linked to boost our immune function.
