I love simple meals made of real food. This includes toast and finding something gluten-free (not to mention grain-free) that is also “healthy” is tough. If you are reading this you probably already know that gluten-free doesn’t necessarily mean its good for you. Fillers, sugar, possible arsenic from rice flour, misc chemicals, and many other things are all concerns.
Food for Life Sprouted 3 Seed Bread is the best I’ve found and it tastes fantastic! When you sprout and/or soak certain foods it helps to break them down which in turn makes them much easier to digest and assimilate. This bread is gluten-free and technically grain-free, (quinoa and millet are officially seeds but cook up and act more like a grain) and arrowroot is the first “flour” on the ingredient list which I am a big fan of.

Ingredients
For breakfast this day I wanted to get a little creative and experiment a bit. I toasted up a slice and in this order applied:
- grass-fed butter to taste
- 1 pastured egg from our chickens
- sea salt & black pepper
- half an avocado
- small handful broccoli sprouts
- dash of fermented green chile sauce (McCauley Family Farm)
I chased it down with Bulletproof black coffee, collagen protein powder, brain octain oil, and a dash of Ceylon cinnamon. It makes for a nice light breakfast that gets in your macronutrients (fats, carbohydrates, protein) and a good start to your daily fiber/plant intake.
Pro tip: Broccoli sprouts are a potent cancer-fighting food
