Good morning!
I love meals that include a little bit of everything– lots of different flavors, tastes, and textures. It makes the meal interesting and the combination of foods is soooo satisfying. I swear these types of meals keep me full for hours and hours.
My breakfast this morning included lots of foods: an egg, yogurt, toast with peanut butter, and watermelon. Having so many different foods also gives me an opportunity to share their NuVal scores, so here goes!
Eggland’s Best Egg (NuVal score 44) + Stonyfield Low-Fat Strawberry Yogurt (NuVal score: 29)

Watermelon (NuVal score: 94) + Arnold 100% Whole Wheat Sandwich Thins (NuVal score: 37) with Teddie Smooth UnSalted Peanut Butter (NuVal score: 49)

I also drank some iced coffee with Edensoy Soymilk Original (NuVal score: 82).

What did you have for breakfast this morning?
Feel free to include some NuVal scores!

Ooh, your breakfast looks amazing! I had oatmeal with walnuts and raisins this morning. I was rushing to get out the door, so I lopped it onto a big plate! It makes it cool faster
Hope you like that tip
Wei-Wei
I’m totally with you on meals that feature a variety of tastes and textures. This morning I had overnight raspberry vanilla bean cinnamon oats: organic raspberries, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, vanilla bean paste, oats, all-fruit raspberry preserves, fat-free plain Greek yogurt and a touch of water soaked overnight… added this morning: Kashi Warm Cinnamon Heart to Heart and a bit of Cascadian Farms Cinnamon Crunch. I don’t have the NuVal scores, but it was absolutely delicious!
I have been craving cereal with milk and oatmeal because it is so hot in Mississippi this time of year! After reading all about your posts on Carrots n Cake i really want to buy organic products but it is hard on a college budget!
I can’t find Teddie peanut butter here in Singapore, most unfortunate.
Anyway, I read carrotsncake like a devotee and really like your breakfasts.
Go on inspiring Tina!
:]
I had cherry/banana/cottage cheese oats with chocolate granola on top! Mmmm
That peanut butter looks so good.
I had a bowl of granola with almond milk and grapes.
I typically read your CNC blog, but wanted to comment over here as well. I also traveled to Vermont last week and was so excited to see Nuval scores in the grocery store. I was explaining to the people we were traveling with what they were and what the numbers mean. Sadly, we don’t have them in the area I live in.
Additionally, I was impressed with the focus on local and organic foods in Vermont. Everything just seemed to taste better!
Great breakfast!
I had museli, berries and a scoop of organic peanut butter.

Your plate makes the food look unappetizing. That design looks like filthy dried up egg splatter.
