I recently had one of my beautiful health coaching clients ask for ideas for gluten free breakfasts.

Having spent the last little while obsessed with my cookbooks and other fantastic blogs full of great recipes I have lot’s to share.

Here are my top 5 Gluten free Breaky ideas, enjoy! And please let me know your favourites x

Here I’ve used Lee Holmes amazing gluten free nut loaf

You’ll also need:

Avocado, tomatoe, sprouts, a boiled egg, english spinach, lemon, olive oil and salt and pepper.

On top of your gluten free nut loaf, spoon out your avocado, good squeeze of lemon and pinch of sea salt.

Sprinkle sprouts over your avocado toast, then slices of tomotoe, English spinach on the side and an organic boiled egg.

Some olive oil drizzled on top, another squeeze of lemon, a little more salt and pepper to taste and yum!!

Fresh ricotta is a divine addition to this wholesome breaky!

3-4 eggs (depending on how many people your feeding)

Around 1 cup of chopped tomatoe, kale, red capsicum & parsley

In a frying pan put a little butter or oil of choose and heat, through in the vegetables and cook until slightly soft.

In a separate bowl beat the eggs with a dash of milk.

Pour the eggs over the vegetables in the fying pan and continue to cook for a few minutes.

Then transfer the frying pan into the oven and cook the top of the omelette under the grill – it only takes a few minutes.

Slice it our like pizza, add salt and pepper, perhaps some fetta or ricotta cheese and enjoy.
