Olive Oil for Breakfast... I have started eating my morning oatmeal with extra virgin olive oil drizzled on top with a touch of sea salt. It is very satisfying and you avoid a sugary start to your day. Make your oatmeal by cooking it in water, when it is done drizzle olive oil and salt on top. YUM!
