One of the great pleasures of intermittent fasting, aside from becoming more metabolically efficient, teaching the body to burn fat for fuel and entering a state of autophagy, is the pleasure of eating a big breakfast after a successful I.F. week. I take pride and joy in a big breakfast ritual on the weekends- from prepping and cooking while listening to a podcast, to the feast itself and the post meal clean up.
The whole process feels like I’m taking time to celebrate life and focus on gratitude for the nourishment nature provides for our energy systems. I invite my daughter and wife to enjoy, but sometimes it’s just me and i get to hone in on making the perfect plate. This is a simple recipe that i repeat every weekend i can, without worry or calorie count, fasting window or activity load.
