Aside from the garlicky breath that might follow this meal, it’s chocked full of benefits! This meal is flavourful and different from ‘conventional’ breakfasts on typical menus, and it’s relatively quick to make in a pinch.
The avocado is the centrepiece of this tasty plant-based brekkie bowl, providing most of the energy from monounsaturated fat. Avocados are also rich in copper, folate, and vitamin C.
The generous serving of mushrooms packs a mega-dose of B vitamins, folate, copper, iron, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, and zinc while providing very few calories. The tomato fills the void of vitamins C and A, and the garlic pushes you towards your B1, calcium, and manganese goals.
