The Great Big Sunday Morning AIP Breakfast
The Great Big Sunday Morning AIP Breakfast
I love going out to breakfast on the weekend, it's one of my favorite things. The next best thing is having a reason to cook a nice big breakfast at home for that special someone. Chef Ann has put together these recipes for a delicious and hearty breakfast that anyone would enjoy, not just followers of the Autoimmune Protocol. First up we have an AIP Hash. Loaded with bacon, sweet potato and kale not only is this dish healthy, but tasty too! It keeps well so you could make a big batch for hassle free meals during the week.
BACON POTATO AND KALE BREAKFAST HASH (AIP)

INSTRUCTIONS

What would a great big breakfast be without pancakes? I have to admit that pancakes are a guilty pleasure of mine, but I do eat them less than I used to. But these are AIP Pancakes so they are better for you, definitely safer for the gut. We happened to have some blueberry compote that was made for another recipe on hand. We served ours with some of the blueberry compote and maple syrup as well.
