Breakfast is recognised as the most important meal of the day and this bowl of superfood porridge is a perfect way to break the fast.
The walnuts, hemp hearts and chia seeds provide lots of plant-based omega 3 goodness, the sunflower seeds and fortified mylk provide calcium and the banana and blueberries contribute two portions towards your fruit and vegetable intake for the day.
Oats are also a great source of soluble fibre and beta glucans, good for cholesterol lowering.
