What Breakfasts Fuel Your Autumn / Fall?

What Breakfasts Fuel Your Autumn / Fall?

As Summer hands over to Autumn; I think it is important to embrace the season harvests of vegetables and fruits which become available at this time of year.

Eating seasonal vegetables and fruits means you are enjoying those food items both at their best quality and most economical prices.

Here some easy ways to remind ourselves which foods are in season:

Seasonal breakfast / brunch ideas include things like "Potato and apple rösti" served with bacon and fried egg:

How are you going to invest in yourself; by switching-up your Autumnal breakfast options?

  • Soup, always. This time of year I'm leaning more to thick scotch broth and potato type soup but I've yet to find a time of year I don't eat soup. Even in the heatwave that was what I went for.

    Cold soup is evil, always.

    I have soup for breakfast about once a week (usually something I have made; as I like vegetables at breakfast time).  Often I will also add some: pearl barley / red lentils / buckwheat / orzo / wholewheat giant couscous - as I aim to eat between 35 g to 60 g of carbohydrate at breakfast - to suit how busy a morning I have scheduled.

    One of my favourite breakfast soups is sweet potato soup (sweet potatoes onions, carrots, root ginger, garlic, red chilli, vegetable stock - stick blender blitzed quite smooth for use in a food flask).  This recipe also works well for freeze ahead too:

    Soup is handy too if I need to travel somewhere very early in the morning - heated and put into a ore-warmed wide-necked stainless steel food flask - then when a suitable long journey waypoint is reached - take a break and enjoy my hot vegetable soup breakfast - then complete the remainder of the travel suitably sustained - ready to face the more complicated endpoint of the travel to a new venue etc.
