A yummy and soft cream, topped with banana slices, crunchy almond grains and a blueberry and chia seed jam, breakfast is served, and what a breakfast! In fact, the porridge we will prepare today, in addition to being very simple and quick to make, is a real triumph of taste. Besides, it's healthy, which makes it even more delicious. In fact, this recipe does not require the addition of sugar, only a teaspoon of honey if desired, in order to emphasize the natural flavors of all its ingredients. Not only that, porridge is also a high-protein breakfast, thanks to oats, coconut milk, chia seeds, yogurt and almonds. Studies have observed that a high-protein breakfast reduces nervous hunger during the day, nourishes and supports muscles, which are thus stronger and more active, and helps to keep body weight under control (Leidy et al, Obesity, 2015 - Leidy et al, Am J Clin Nutr, 2013).
