If you’re anything like me then keeping full until lunch can be really hard. Especially when you don’t have a good breakfast.

Eating a smaller breakfast or worse skipping breakfast period, increases your overall calorie in take for the day. So by eating a big breakfast you won’t snack while waiting for lunch and you won’t overeat later in the day because of hunger.

If your goal is to lose weight, maintain your weight or simply have more energy and vitality in your mornings, then having a proper nutritious breakfast without sugar or heavy saturated, is really important.

The following recipes have been designed by me, to keep you full for longer, give you energy for the morning and increase your overall health and well-being while enjoying in delicious flavours.

Enjoy the list of my 17 clean-eating vegan breakfast recipes, all under 500 calories and all which helps keep you satisfied, full and energised for the whole morning.

P.S: I have chosen vegan as I believe it’s a healthy way to start
