Julius Anastasio is a Green Belt at Wu Dao
I've been trying to actually eat something after I get home from Kung Fu. The problem lies in the fact that once I'm home, all I usually want to do is find something to eat that doesn't involve any preparation whatsoever. My wife will readily attest that most of the time I wind up standing in the kitchen doorway, staring blankly at our shelves full of uncooked grains and dried goods. Once I finally start getting yelled at to "hurry up and eat something, it's getting really late," I usually just grab a couple of bananas or apples and chomp on them in an unsuccessful attempt to replenish my tank after a hard workout.
One solution to my reluctance to cook at 10 o'clock at night has been to make a "breakfast dinner." Since my breakfasts normally consist of incredibly fast and simple things (breakfast sandwiches, scrambled eggs and toast, yogurt and granola, cereal, etc, etc), making breakfast as a second dinner seems like a fairly safe way to get out of coming out of my post-workout autopilot (leftovers from our initial dinner are usually already used up to make lunch for the next day).
Last night was a yogurt and granola night. I tend to get a little carried away with the additions, adding handfuls of raisins, cranberries, and walnuts, entire coconuts, etc. For instance:
Can you find the yogurt in this picture? I can't.
By the end of the mini-feast I was definitely full, though I should probably start coming up with some more breakfast ideas so I don't get sick of yogurt and granola (I've had it for almost every breakfast for the past month). Does anyone have any suggestions on some slightly original, but still fairly easy to make breakfast ideas?
