Paleo Breakfast: Going Against The Grain

My Paleo breakfast today. Consisted of:
- organic wild Scottish salmon (good source of omega 3) slow low-heat fried with extra-virgin coconut oil
- salmon is marinated with organic herbs and spices
- garnished with sweet peppers, onions and cucumber and a few cashews and walnuts
- washed down with a 1L bulletproof of loose leaf green tea, with fresh peppermint, lime and a few slices of ginger.
and to think for years my idea of a good breakfast was something that had been in a cereal box for a year or so (and had best before date of a few more years), stripped of its meagre nutrients by refinement, infused with additional high levels of sugar and salt and then fortified with (man-made) vitamins to make it appear healthy. On top of that I had a smoothie that had more sugar in it than a can of a leading fizzy drink.
I'll go against the grain and take the real food option instead.
