Sunday Brunch Time

Happy Sunday! For the first time in a very long time 😅, I woke up early this morning and went for a run 🏃‍♂️ before making a trip to the supermarket. As a reward to myself, I decided to make some delicious healthy veggie fritters for brunch this morning! 😋 (And they are so effortless to make!) Just perfect in this glorious weather! ☀️ ☀️

The Savouring Breakfast Club

They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. However, during work days, I always find myself rushing in the morning and skipping breakfasts. So, it is great finally having time to sit down and enjoy a proper, hearty breakfast.

As a kid, I used to enjoy the traditional English breakfast. Big fry up with sausages, bacon, hash brown and baked beans. It sounds delicious, but I found that as I grow older, I have become more intolerant to greasy food in the morning. Therefore, it is nice to see that the food trend is now tending towards more healthy and refreshing options.

Some people would be quick to equate healthy to bland and boring, but I disagree. Salt The Radish does some of the best breakfasts I had with a focus on refreshing ingredients and a wide options for vegetarian and vegan eaters. My favourite is their crispy courgette and sweetcorn fritters, paired with vegan halloumi, rocket, avocado, red pepper jam, poached egg, herby dressing and hummus, topped with streaky bacons. What’s your favourite breakfast to start the day with?
