The theme of today is quick and easy. I had 5 minutes to make and eat breakfast so I threw cereal, chia seeds and almond butter on top of what remained in my pinapple cottage cheese container. I actually love this combination and plan of getting more pineapple cottage cheese asap! Served with iced coffee. I actually made coffee last night…
