tinned fish toast — bear with me on this one

Right so I know tinned sardines don't exactly scream exciting breakfast but honestly this has become a proper regular for me on days when I can't be bothered with eggs but still want something that'll actually keep me going. Wholemeal toast, sardines in olive oil (not the brine ones, they're too sharp for morning), half a lemon squeezed over, bit of black pepper. That's it basically. Takes about four minutes if you count waiting for the toast. The omega-3 thing is apparently canny good for cholesterol which is why I started trying it in the first place, mind you I don't really understand the science of it — the doctor mentioned it and I just went with it. It does feel like proper fuel though, I'll say that much. Keeps me going right through to lunch without thinking about the biscuit tin at work.

sardines on toast is genuinely underrated for breakfast. good shout on the olive oil ones

do you ever try it with mackerel? curious if that works as well for you in the morning

sardines in the morning took me a while to get used to but the protein hit is actually decent for early sessions. four minutes is about all I've got before a 6am class so might give this a go
