breakfast

Growing up, I’d wake up to the smell of chocolate instead of bacon and start my day with a bowl of champorado, a Filipino rice porridge. It felt illegal to eat something so decadent for breakfast: soft glutinous rice swimming in chocolate soup, made by dissolving tablea (tablets of ground roasted cocoa beans) in boiling water, and topped with evaporated milk. Our recipe is inspired by the original, using oatmeal instead of rice. — Isabelle Docto

A make-ahead breakfast that's easy to grab when you're in a hurry and need to run out the door. Packed with protein and fresh fruit, this chia parfait is a great way to start the day.

Banana bread and pancakes are one of our favourite breakfast hybrids (no one will be able to resist a stack of their own).

Bacon + an eggy, savoury, Japanese-style pancake + bun + delicious mayo sauce = a decadent morning treat.

This no knead bread has just a few ingredients, including healthy wheat bran, which is a fantastic source of fibre. It's perfect for serving alongside soups, stews and sandwiches.
