Best breakfast ever...

Okay, I am not the biggest breakfast person. It's just never been a meal that appeals to me. However, I always eat it since it's the "most important meal of the day." Anyway, I made this recipe a lot in the summer and just re-made again this morning, and felt the need to share this amazing recipe.

It's from Bethenny Frankel, of the Real Housewives of New York. She has videos you can find on youtube of recipes she makes and exercise tips. Here's the recipe:

Healthy Brown Rice Breakfast

Serves 1

1/2 cup cooked brown rice
1/4 cup soy milk (or regular milk if you like it)
1 tablespooon dried cranberries or raisins (I skip this cause I don't like dried fruit)
1 teaspoon sliced almonds (I use pecans because I like them better)
1 tablespoon maple syrup (this is the real stuff, no cheap Mrs. Buttersworth crap)
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon

Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan and heat over medium heat until warmed through, about five minutes.

That's it! How easy is that? I swear, it's the best breakfast I've ever eaten. Delicious and very filling. Also, it's relatively good for you. I feel this beats out cereal any day. Try this tomorrow morning! Seriously, you will not be disappointed and probably want to eat it every morning after!
