Try these grab and go pots of goodness for your morning meal
This breakfast is the perfect balance of convenient and nutritious. It provides a good balance of complex carbohydrates, protein and good fats, which are important to include at breakfast to provide satiety and a steady energy flow.
The FIT crew love making this when we’re time poor and have to leave the house in a rush, as it can be prepared the night before. Simply grab and go! This is a great option for people to take to work. It’s also delicious too!
