Now that the weather has changed and it's starting to get cold in Brisbane I just can't bring myself to drink a cold smoothie. I few days ago I stayed so cold from the smoothie I wore a sweater all day as I just couldn't bring my temperature back up.
Yesterday I quickly went into the local organic store and looked for a breakfast alternative. I was hoping to get something warm, perhaps porridge or oatmeal, however neither of these have ever been my favorite. As I was looking I came across Brookfarm Bircher. I have never tried Bircher, so I thought I would give it a try, even though the recipes on the back is for a cold breakfast (I guess I'll just have to wear a sweater all day).
I mixed the following items and left it in the fridge for one hour:
1/4 cup Brookfarm Gluten Free Bircher
1/4 cup Coconut Water
1/4 cup Coconut Yogurt (Mango)
Topped with half of a ripe banana right before I ate it.
It was pretty good. It has a good flavor and I like the fact that it has a crunchy texture, as I don't really like the smooth creamy stuff, as it reminds me of porridge. The pieces of dried fruit is a great little surprise while you're eating it. Also, I stayed pretty warm while eating it, I guess because it wasn't a cold liquid. Hopefully this will be keep me satisfied for the next few hours and this could be my new breakfast until it runs out. Then I'll have to change it up and get something new.
