Treat your mom to a heart-healthy + flavorful breakfast in bed this year! She’ll appreciate not having to cook and your efforts for creating a meal that is good for her too!
My heart-healthy waffles are made with omega-3 rich flaxseeds, fiber-packed oatmealand detoxifying apple cider vinegar! Top with fresh strawberries + a side of grapefruit for a boost of vitamins and minerals and last but not least, don’t forget a hot cup of mom’s favorite coffee or tea!
Flaxseeds contain omega-3 fatty acids, which are known as “good” fats that support heart health. Ground flaxseeds also act as little scrubber brushes helping to clean out & support a healthy digestive system.
Berries are delicious, low in sugar, packed with fiber and immune boosting anti-oxidants! Berries are one of nature's best sources for antioxidants, which help fight against free-radicals that can damage the lining of your arteries
Ground oatmeal is a great alternative to traditional white flour for pancakes, waffles or any baked treat! Oats are a fantastic source of fiber, and are made of a special type of soluble fiber called beta-glucan. Beta-glucan has been shown to lower the LDL “bad” cholesterol levels.
While all citrus are excellent additions to a healthy diet, grapefruit is a classic breakfast citrus. You may be surprised to learn that nutrients in grapefruit have been shown to help lower the LDL “bad” cholesterol levels as well as help improve the elasticity of blood vessels, which can help to improve blood circulation overall!
Coffee beans are in fact packed with anti-oxidants! Just make sure to choose Organic coffee to avoid pesticides, which are common for non-organic coffee beans. Plus hold off on the artificial creamer! Try adding a splash of coconut milk with a dash of cinnamon for a healthier coffee treat.
