Great! Youve not only hit but surpassed your weekly target of four protein-rich breakfasts - thats fantastic. Your choice of blueberry cacao oatmeal with walnuts is a great one. The walnuts add a nice touch of protein to your meal and the blueberries and cacao provide a burst of flavor without adding too many calories. The oatmeal is also a good source of fiber which can help keep you feeling full until your next meal. As you continue with your healthy nutrition routine remember the importance of including protein in your breakfasts to maintain your energy levels throughout the day. Youre doing an outstanding job Debbie!
