Egg & Bacon Omelette

Ingredients:

• 2 eggs

• 2 rashers of bacon, chopped

• Diced fresh tomatoes (optional)

• A splash of milk or water

• A little butter or oil

• Salt and pepper to taste

• Optional: grated cheese, chopped chives or spring onions

Instructions:

1. Fry the chopped bacon in a non-stick pan until crispy. Remove from the pan and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the pan.

2. Whisk the eggs with milk or water, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

3. Heat the pan with the bacon fat (or add a little butter/oil) over medium heat.

4. Pour the egg mixture into the pan.

5. As the edges of the omelette set, gently push the cooked egg towards the centre, allowing the uncooked egg to flow underneath.

6. Sprinkle the cooked bacon (and cheese/chives if using) over one half of the omelette.

7. Fold the omelette in half.

8. Cook for another minute until the filling is heated through and the cheese (if using) is melted.

9. Slide onto a plate and enjoy!

Tips for Success:

• Don't overcook the eggs – you want them to be slightly soft in the middle.

• Use a non-stick pan to prevent the omelette from sticking.

• Adjust the fillings to your liking.

Simple Stovetop Oats

Ingredients:

• ½ cup rolled oats (not instant)

• 1 cup milk or water (or a mix)

• Pinch of salt (optional, but enhances flavor)

Instructions:

1. Combine the rolled oats, milk or water, and salt (if using) in a small saucepan over medium heat.

2. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

3. Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid and reached your desired consistency (creamy or slightly looser).

4. Remove from the heat and let it sit for a minute or two.

5. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings (fruit, nuts, honey, etc.).

Tips:

• For creamier oats: Use milk instead of water.

• Don't boil too vigorously: This can make the oats tough or cause them to stick.

• Adjust liquid for consistency: Use slightly less liquid for thicker oats, slightly more for thinner oats.

• Stirring is key: It helps prevent sticking and promotes even cooking.

Enjoy your simple and comforting bowl of oats!

Waffle with Natural Yogurt

Ingredients:

• 1 cooked waffle (freshly made or reheated)

• 2-3 tablespoons natural yogurt (Greek or Regular)

• Optional toppings: Fresh berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries), a drizzle of honey or maple syrup, a sprinkle of nuts or seeds.

Instructions:

1. If your waffle is not already warm, gently reheat it according to package instructions or in a toaster.

2. Place the warm waffle on a plate.

3. Spoon the natural yogurt over the waffle.

4. If desired, add your chosen toppings: scatter fresh berries, drizzle with honey or maple syrup, and sprinkle with nuts or seeds.

5. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips:

• Reheating waffles: A toaster is often the quickest way to reheat them and keep them crispy.

• Yogurt choice: Greek yogurt will be thicker and tangier than plain natural yogurt.

• Topping variations: Get creative! You could also use sliced banana, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a dollop of fruit compote.
