Wellhaus’s Dietitian, Leah Silberman speaks to betches about Three Toast Options That Are Healthy
She’s quoted saying:
Grown-Up PB&J
This is the grown-up gourmet version of peanut butter and jelly. The figs replace sugary Smucker’s while providing some fiber and a good source of potassium. Peanut butter is not just a kid’s food, we swear. It’s a great source of protein and healthy fat, as long as you’re not standing at your fridge eating spoonful after spoonful..
Ingredients:
1 slice of 100% whole grain bread or Ezekiel sprouted bread
2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
1-2 figs, sliced
Dash of cinnamon for an antioxidant boost
Optional: Sprinkle of chia or hemp seeds
Avo Toast with a Tovita Twist
We all have our fave version of avocado toast, but we like to add an egg on top to make it a balanced, protein-packed meal. The chilli peppers actually boost your metabolism, so they basically just burn up all your carbs.
Ingredients:
1 slice of 100% whole grain bread or Ezekiel sprouted bread
¼ avocado, mashed with a fork
1 egg, fried or poached (per preference)
Dash of red chili peppers
Dash of Himalayan sea salt
Dash of garlic powder for antioxidant boost
Ricotta Be Kidding Me
Part-skim ricotta is a good source of protein and calcium. Fun fact: pistachios are the highest fiber, lowest calorie nut. Get crackin’.
Ingredients:
1 slice of 100% whole grain bread or Ezekiel sprouted bread
2 tablespoons part skim ricotta cheese
1 tablespoon crushed pistachio nuts
1 teaspoon honey
