We’re sure you’ve heard about all the health benefits associated with the Mediterranean diet, so why not start your morning off with Mediterranean-inspired breakfasts? The Mediterranean diet focuses on grains and produce, making it ideal for nutritious, filling breakfasts. Here are five Meditteranean-inspired breakfasts to try.
Mediterranean Breakfast Oatmeal
Oatmeal will keep you feeling full longer with all the fiber. For a savory dish, add tomatoes, yogurt, and fresh herbs, and if you like sweeter breakfasts, add fresh figs and tahini or bananas and peanut butter.
Mediterranean Breakfast Omelette
Packed with protein, eggs are a filling meal that can be customized to your liking with vegetables and cheese. You can make one with red wine vinegar, fresh vegetables, and avocado or a vegan omelette with chickpeas instead of eggs and adding spinach and bell peppers.
Mediterranean Breakfast Parfait
Increase your protein in your breakfast parfait by swapping out regular yogurt with Greek yogurt. Just add your favorite toppings like nuts, coconut, fresh or dried fruits, and granola.
Mediterranean Breakfast Wraps
Wraps are so much more exciting than sandwiches and you can fill them with hummus, avocado, egg, black beans, and spinach.
Mediterranean Breakfast Smoothies
Whip up a smoothie on a hot day to get all your essential nutrients from fruits and vegetables. For an extra bit of protein, add Greek yogurt.
