For fancy breakfasts...

I have no idea where this one comes from... although I'm pretty sure it is a known receipe, with a fancy story of its own. For my part, I know it from my grandmother who used to make it for me when I visited. A nice change from my morning cereal!

To have:
  • 1 yoghurt
  • 1/2 lemon
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
  • 2 tablespoons ground (or not) oak flakes
  • 2-3 teaspoons honey
  • fruits (e.g. apple, pear, banana, peach, or even strawberries...)
  • walnuts
That's the full version as I know it, ofcourse, that only purists like myself stick to. If you don't have that much stuffs, it's no big deal.

To do:

Just add the ingredients in the right order:
  • Empty the yoghurt into a bowl.
  • Add the squeezed half-lemon, and stir.
  • Then, oil ; then, honey. Stir well.
  • Grind the flaxseeds and oak flakes, and add them too. Stir.
  • You can now add fruits, cut to pieces, as many as you like, as much as you like. And...stir (no kidding!)
  • Throw some walnuts on the whole thing before giving it your last spin!
  • Look, unconvinced, at your preparation.
  • Go ahead and try it (you'd hate to have done all this stirring for nothing)


Right, it may not *look* very good, but it tastes great and is, surely, very healthy!
