What Are Squash Blossoms?
Squash Blossoms or Zucchini Flowers are edible delicate blossoms produced by a squash or zucchini plant. They taste like mild squash, are slightly sweet, and do not taste perfume-like, similar to your typical edible flower.
These blossoms and flowers can be found at the farmer’s markets and in your garden! They are delicate and highly perishable and thus are typically not found in a grocery store. The refrigerator shelf life is 2-3 days if you are lucky.
If you are using zucchini flowers for items like stir-fry or these fritters, they can last a little longer because if it’s a little wilted, I don’t care. After all, I’m cooking them anyway!
Ingredients and Tips
Below, I list the ingredients and provide some tips for substitutions for this squash blossoms recipe.

Importance of a Balanced Breakfast
Breakfast is often called “the most important meal of the day” by many health professionals.
Numerous studies have found eating a balanced breakfast regularly is associated with a range of health benefits. Some of these include reduced risk of obesity, andtype II diabetes, as well as better academic performance in children and adolescents.
Flexitarian breakfasts are similar to my recommendations for a non-flexitarian healthy breakfast with one difference – moderate/limit the intake of animal-derived products.
The Key To A Flexitarian Breakfast: Limit Animal Products
To adopt a Flexitarian lifestyle, you moderate/limit your intake of meat and potentially other animal-derived products.
Limiting animal products at breakfast is a great way to kick off your day of Flexitarian Eating.
Some Flexitarian Styles of eating, like Marc Bittman’s“Vegan Before 6”, eating plant-based during the first two-third’s of the day, and for dinner, they have the option of eating a meat-based meal.
This daily routine can make eating more plant-based more feasible for many people.
Health Benefits of The Flexitarian Breakfast
Additionally, embracing a plant-based breakfast offers numerous health benefits worth considering.
Opting for plant-based alternatives at breakfast can help reduce the intake of saturated fats, promoting heart health. Additionally, plant-based breakfasts rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains provide essential nutrients and diverse flavors, which may contribute to improved digestive health.
So, you might ask yourself, how do I make a Flexitarian Breakfast?
I’ll tell you!

5 Tips For Creating A Balanced Flexitarian Breakfast
Here are my easy-to-follow five tips for creating a balanced Flexitarian breakfast.
Pick more Protein
Incorporating about 25-30g of protein into your breakfast can significantly extend your feeling of fullness throughout the morning. Protein also provides essential amino acids vital for muscle repair and growth.
Some Flexitarian Breakfast Protein Sources include:
Eggs, yogurt, cottage cheese, nuts, seeds, nuts and seed butter, beans, tofu, protein powders, and protein-fortified breakfast products such as bagels, pancakes, andwaffles.
Here is a list of excellent protein-packed flexitarian Breakfast Smoothie Recipes. I add protein powder to a smoothie for a quick, easy, and protein-packed breakfast. These Flexitarian breakfast recipes keep me full for hours!
Check out my Avocado Toast Recipe! This recipe has fiber, healthy fats, and protein!
Limit Added Sugar
Added sugar at breakfast can lead to energy crashes later in the day.
To help prevent blood sugar spikes, avoid foods such as muffins, scones, donuts, sugary cereals, and sugary yogurts.
However, note that I said “limit added sugar” not omit!
In moderation, breakfast foods that contain added sugar can fit into a healthy Flexitarian diet and lifestyle.
For example, I love this Croffles recipe for entertaining guests for a special occasion like a Mother’s Day Bruch or Christmas Day Breakfast.
Don’t forget those Vitamins and Minerals
A balanced breakfast needs vitamins and minerals. To incorporate a variety of these nutrients, incorporate lots of colorful fruits and veggies into your diet.
You can also opt for fortified foods such as cereals, dairy products, plant-based milks, and grains.
My Smoothie Bowl recipe is another Flexitarian recipe that includes a variety of vitamins and minerals.
Oatmeal, arguably one of the most nutritious of the cereal grasses, has been a staple in continental breakfast bars for decades.
I enjoy oatmeal as an addition to my morning routine, serving both as a nutritious and balanced breakfast to kickstart my day. But, I also enjoy eating oatmeal as a yummy afternoon snack to keep me energized.
My personal favorite time to eat oatmeal is when I am camping and backpacking!
While camping, I prefer to keep things simple and easy. I love this hot oatmeal to go alongside my hot coffee. It’s a comforting breakfast with simple ingredients and is ready in less than 30 minutes (especially, if you use old-fashioned oats!)
Ingredients – Base Oatmeal Recipe
This Creamy Oatmeal recipe is so easy anyone can make it.
Steel-Cut Oats: I prefer to use steel-cut or Irish oats when making oatmeal. If you prefer to use any other type such as old-fashioned rolled oats, you can do so but the cooking time with change. I prefer McCann’s Steel Cut Oats for its chewy texture and delicious flavor.
Oatmilk: Homemade or store-bought oatmilk will do. This can be used as a non-dairy milk alternative. Alternatively, you can use other plant milk such as soy milkfor a little more protein.
Whole Milk: I like to use whole milk, but for even creamier oatmeal I’ll use heavy cream. To keep this recipe vegan, use coconut milk instead.
Butter: Finally, I love to add a bit of butter at the end of cooking. Add the butter to your big ol’ pot of oats or a bit in your bowl after serving. This adds to the creaminess.
Salt: I add a pinch of salt (kosher) to bring out the flavors and natural sweetness of the oats.
I have a whole list of oatmeal toppings below, but I love to add some healthy fats with some nut butter and more protein with added protein powder. I prefer to add Vital Proteins Collagen powder to my oatmeal because its taste and texture does not interfere with the flavors of the oatmeal and toppings.
Step-By-Step Instructions For Creamy Oatmeal
Add oats and oat milk to a medium pot and turn the stove to medium heat.
Cover the pot with its lid and let the oatmeal sit on low for 15 minutes. Consider a heat diffuser to keep the heat very, very low.
Mix in the butter and then let sit, off the heat, for 5 min.
Top oatmeal with your favorite toppings and dig in!
The Best Oatmeal Toppings
Now, for the best part, let’s top the creamy oatmeal!
I’ve compiled a list of possible add-ins and toppings that are great options to add to this Creamy Oatmeal Recipe.

FAQ (Ask A Dietitian!)
What Is Oatmeal?
Oat groats, Steel-cut, and Rolled oats are all oatmeal!
Below are the differences between these many oats.
Oat groats: Oat groats are cleaned, toasted, hulled, and cleaned again whole oats. These cook similarly to rice.
Steel-cut oats: These are oat groats cut into 2 to 3 pieces. These take longer to cook than old-fashioned or quick quick-cooking cooking oats. Steel-cut or Irish oats have a chewier texture old-fashioned when compared to old-fashioned.
Rolled oats: Also known as Old-fashioned oats, rolled oats are groats that have been steamed and flattened with large rollers. Rolled oats take about 15min to cook.
Quick-cooking rolled oats: Finally, we have quick-cooking oats which are oat groats that have been cut into several pieces and then steamed and rolled into thinner flakes. Quick oats are the fastest-cooking oats, taking only about 5min.
How To Make Oatmeal Creamy without Milk?
To make oatmeal creamy without milk, use a plant-based alternative such as oat, cashew, soy, coconut, or almond milk.
Is Oatmeal Better With Milk or Water?
The answer to “Is oatmeal better with milk or water” depends on your personal preference.
Do you prefer the taste of oatmeal made with milk or water? For me, I prefer the taste of oatmeal when it is made with milk. Milk has additional health benefits such as protein, vitamins, and minerals that aid in a balanced breakfast.
The Bottom line is, make a breakfast you will enjoy. Healthy food should taste great!

Bagels can be a satisfying and delicious addition to your healthy lunches and breakfasts.
I try to keep my bagel breakfast balanced with the addition of fruit, veggies, and protein.
Light cream cheese is great, but one of my favorite combinations is a bagel topped with my homemade Healthy Honey Almond Cream Cheese, which includes cottage cheese as a secret ingredient. It is terrific on English muffins, spooned over Croffles (one of my favorite Korean Recipes), or spread over top of a plain bagel from your local bagel shop.
My favorite is this spread on a blueberry bagel, especially Dave’s Killer Bread cinnamon raisin Bagels.
Ingredients and Tips
Cottage Cheese – I prefer a full-fat cottage cheese for the most flavor.
Honey – In a pinch, you can swap for maple syrup.
Almonds – I prefer to use toasted almonds. It will give the spread more flavor. If you have food allergies to almonds, you can use sunflower seeds.
Vanilla Extract – You could swap for almond extract
Salt – I use flakey sea salt or kosher salt
Step-By-Step Instructions
In a food processor, blend the cottage cheese until smooth.
Add the chopped almonds, honey, vanilla, and salt to the food processor. Blend well.
Taste the mixture and adjust the honey to your liking.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Enjoy your homemade honey almond cream cheese spread on bagels, toast, or as a dip for fruit.
Creating a Balanced Breakfast
You may have heard breakfast is “the most important meal of the day” for many, and this is true. Numerous studies have found eating a balanced breakfast regularly is associated with a range of health benefits including reducing the risk of obesity, type II diabetes, and better school performance in children and adolescents.
A balanced breakfast includes a variety of nutrients in appropriate proportions to provide energy while promoting satiety.
I like to start my day with a balanced breakfast because it kickstarts my healthy eating for the rest of the day. You might be thinking, but Sarah, bagels are NOT healthy. Au contraire, my friend.
Bagels have carbohydrates, fiber, and protein. But most of all, I love the taste! I especially love bagels because I engage in regular exercise. Bagels are a convenient and tasty way to fuel my workouts.
Tips On Creating a Balanced Breakfast
Here are some tips for creating a balanced breakfast.
The Cinnamon Raisin Remix and Boomin’ Berry Bagels pair oh so well with this recipe. It’s important not to get too hung up on the numbers but here are a couple of reasons why I love to include Dave’s Killer Bread Organic Bagels in my diet.
With 11 to 12g of protein and 12 to 14g of whole grains, these bagels are baked to keep you fuller longer. Pair The Cinnamon Raisin Remix Bagel with a heaping 1/4 cup of my Honey Almond Cream Cheese and you are eating 18g of protein.
Pair that combo with a piece of fruit and you’ve got yourself a balanced breakfast or healthy lunch any dietitian would be proud of! Fruit adds additional fiber, vitamins, and minerals making it a smart addition to a balanced breakfast.

Today, I am unveiling a homemade marvel, an irresistible blueberry drop biscuit. These better-than-Bojangles blueberry biscuits are bursting with the natural sweetness of blueberries and buttery flakey love. Furthermore, they are so much better than a copycat recipe.
Why I Made This Recipe
There is a special place in my heart for biscuits. In fact, during my undergraduate years, I dedicated my experimental foods project to exploring dairy milk alternatives in drop biscuit recipes. You could say I’m a true “biscuit enthusiast.”
However, my reasons for creating this recipe go beyond my love for biscuits.
Blueberry Season: Blueberries are in season! What a great way to use up some of your latest summer blueberry hauls. However, when blueberries are not in season, I always have a bag of frozen blueberries in the freezer (it’s Jacob’s absolute favorite food). And, frozen blueberries work just as well in this recipe.
Easy: Perhaps it’s the countless times I made drop biscuits during that undergraduate experimental foods class, but making biscuits is a breeze. They are ready in under an hour with zero proofing time, chilling time, or any lengthy waiting time.
Even after devouring a multitude of biscuits that year, my love for them remains unwavering.
Comfort food Perfect for Sharing: Few things can rival the comfort of a warm biscuit slathered with butter.
Sure you could share a plate of box brownies, or break and bake cookie dough, but sharing a batch of made-from-scratch, freshly baked biscuits takes sharing to a whole new level of “caring”. Trust me, this recipe is a crowd-pleaser. I would know, I’ve shared these biscuits on numerous occasions.
