I was marinating chicken in tandoori spices and wondering what to serve with it when it was ready. Flatbreads FAST was the answer. These Flatbreads are also the answer for a quick lunch or breakfast too. The tandoori chicken is a post for another day, because I didn’t take photo’s and document my process. It was a glorious winter’s Tuesday and we decided to enjoy a braai. I often feel like I’m being naughty when we do something that is usually reserved for a weekend, but I have learnt to break free of these constructs and lean into what my life looks like every day when I lead with my heart.
This morning after our cycle I was hungry and fresh out of my banana muffins that I usually have as a quick snack. I had put the flatbread in the freezer after Tuesday’s tandoori chicken braai, so I whipped them out took a few photo’s of them before they were all eaten and I hadn’t got them on camera. I preheated the air fryer to 200ºC and placed them in the drawer for 3 minutes. I made an avo salsa and fried eggs and minutes later we were eating a wholesome and filling breakfast.
Breaking your fast is breakfast and it must be fast and relatively quick to make. If you are serious about nourishing your body with good food then try making your own food. The evidence is very strong against ultra high processed foods these days. Read here for more information on the subject.
