Breakfast Thursday 27 July - Blueberries

Did not bother to take pic, but had some blueberries & toast for brekkie.

Oops! I did take a picture after all:


Blueberries are so cheap & wonderful at the moment - these came from Poland.

Also made seed mix this AM. Very yummy & moreish and homemade is a fraction the price of all the Food Doctor etc seed mixes. One of my favourite snacks there days

Seed Mix
100g raw, hulled sunflower seed
100g raw, hulled pumpkin seeds
20g linseed
20 hemp seeds
2 tablespoons soy sauce


Put all the seed in a large bowl and mix well. Add the soy sauce and mix again. Cover and leave to stand overnight, so that the seeds can absorb the soy sauce.

Next morining, dry roast the seeds in a heavy, non-stick skillet until they are dried and crunchy - about 15-20 minutes. Keep and eye on them and stir frequently. Pack into airtight jars and try to avoid eating too much!

Sometimes I vary the recipe by adding garlic granules and/or chilli powder with the soy auce. Also delicious, so experiment.
