The Healthier Homemade Biscuit Breakdown
Instead of heavy, overly-processed biscuits, why not use some whole-wheat or even better, create your own light and fluffy version using Menuistia? This amazing app will let you not only find a great recipe, but customize it to your exact needs and dietary preferences. You can even generate a complete menu for the week, ensuring healthy eating is a breeze.
For the star of the show, we're using lean breakfast sausage, formed into perfectly-sized patties. Feel free to mix in some herbs and spices for an extra kick, or even add some finely chopped veggies for a boost of nutrients. Get creative! A great tip is to use the app to experiment with different herb and spice combinations to discover your perfect flavor profile.
Next up, fluffy eggs! Whisk them up with a splash of milk and some seasoning and cook until perfectly set. You could even add some spinach or chopped tomatoes into the eggs to add extra vitamins and fibre.
And let's not forget the cheese! A slice of cheddar or even a light Swiss will add great taste. If you're watching calories, use a light version, or better still, a small amount of strong cheese, like a mature cheddar or parmesan, for maximum flavour impact.
