WHAT MAKES ME AN "INFORMED" FOOD BLOGGER

I am CURRENTLY a PRACTICING PHYSICIAN .

However, I did complete TWO YEARS of college studying GENERAL BIOCHEMISTRY AND MICROBIOLOGY, Food technology,Food Microbiology and Biochemistry prior to deciding that I am more inclined to the CLINICAL SIDE of things and hence decided to get into MEDICAL SCIENCE .

I did very well in medical school thereafter and am now a "kick-ass" doctor .

My interest in "Food" and the "Science of cooking" continues to this day and explains why I now have a Food blog as part of my LECINQBLOG family of Blogs

I seek to dispel FOOD FADS, food myths via this food blog.I seek also to increase health awareness by canvassing for healthier diets.

Good chef meets GOOD DOCTOR meets good writer=Informative food blog, no?

Great breakfasts-vegan breakfast options

A lot of meat eating people are so used to rut of eating pig pieces in the morning , they get so used to not having to think and decide what to make for breakfast since ofcourse it is gonna be eggs and some pig pieces. they quite forget that eating the same thing over and over is not really luxury . 
  After having given up eggs, I suddenly was left with the question, Now what do i do for breakfast?
For the first few days, it looked like there is no choice, nothign available, what does one eat if they don't eat eggs for breakfast. Then slowly i figured that i must research to find foods that will substitute by calcium needs adequaltely and more than anything else, it is so necessary for any breakfast to be laden with carbohydrates. As you all know, when we sleep for 8 or more hours, we are starving during that period and the body needs carbohydrates after having starved that long. Protein is not really a requirement . We can have protein but like i mentioned in one of my older blog entries, there is only so much of protein a body needs especially if you are one of those people who doesn't do much hard manual labor. 
           Here is a list of great breakfasts i eat nowadays, all vegan, all much more tastier than any non vegan breakfast I have ever eaten. They are not any pricier than a non vegan breakfast even
1/ Nice toasted white or whole wheat bread with tomatoes , cucumber and some vegenaise with a nice cup of soy latte
2/ Good cup of granola with nuts and raisins and cornflakes and wheat flakes with guava nectar and some good coffee .
3/Nice tofu scramble with pepper and tomatoes ,coffee and or fruit juice
4/ Nice warm bagel(vegan) with fruits and some good hot chocolate
5/Millet and lentil pancakes with sugar and fruits and coffee
6/Nice stuffed wheat breads again with fruits and coffee

Anyways, it is all about coming out of that meat and egg breakfast rut and thinking different.  These six sets are just examples , I have had
7/ bean tortillas with potate falafels with soy yogurts another day.. 
8/Nice pasta with olives and tomatoes(yeah , pasta for breakfast, why not?
