Cinnamon (dried or in some other forms) apparently increases protein absorbing in our bodies.

I think I'll be having cinnamon over my oatmeal tomorrow morning.

It also improves glucose tolerance and sensitivity to insulin. Make sure you get proper cinnamon though, as the cheaper stuff is not what a lot of the studies have been done on. The run-of-the-mill stuff is usually Cassia Cinnamon, the stuff you're looking for is Ceylon Cinnamon:

You've made me choke on some dry oats.

I'll have to do some extra research.

Spiced coconut chia pudding with chocolate flax sprinkles. It has a consistency something like a mix between sago & rice pudding.

Makes me feel like downloading something
Did you end up downloading something :).

Asian kinda zucchini noodle salad. Let the noodles marinate overnight in a garlic/oil/vinegar/garlic/ginger/chilli mix.

Very interesting. Like the straight lines of the flax sprinkle. My OCD is satisfied.

IDM inspired? :D

Thought sago and rice pudding were the same? :eek:

English muffins, toasted with ham and cheese in my car on the way to work. What a treat! Washed down by tap water. Pfft! Need a good hot cup of black coffee.

A few Pro Vitas with Melrose cheese spread, mixed berry yoghurt and some belated coffee.
