I really need to say a great big, raw chocolate covered, SORRY to all of you lovelies who have signed up for recipes and haven't received anything yet! I am having some mega email issues, which I'm in the process of sorting out. Unfortunately, and despite many phone calls that have made me stamp my foot and swear a lot, it's taking a hell of a lot longer than I expected! I'm very sorry, so here's my favourite solid breakfast recipe. It's a good warming one with lots of ginger, it should see you through this silly pre-summer cold snap we're getting in Bris Vegas! It's also a good brain-booster, lots of omega 3 in the chia and in the hemp seeds if you can get them. Fundies in Paddington stock them if you're looking and live in Brisbane :)

Chia, apple and cinnamon porridge
1 apple, grated
1/4 C chia
1/4 C pepitas and sunflower seeds
1/2 - 1 T cinnamon
A knob of ginger, as much or as little as you like, grated finely
1 T hemp seeds (optional)
1 - 1 1/2 C water or your favourite nut milk

Pretty simple, throw it all in a big bowl and mix it up! Let it sit a while, because the chia needs a bit of time to soak up the liquid and swell up.  I like to do this in a jar and let it sit overnight if I'm organised enough, so the flavours really soak in, but  5 to 10 minutes is enough. Depending on how big a brekky eater you are, this should be enough for at least 2 people.

Enjoy XXX
