Crocodile Crunch-Breakfast!

The recipe is from The Kind Diet by Alicia Silver Stone. It is one of my favorite things to eat for breakfast. It’s delicious, pretty, and super filling, and it has a cute name.

I just happened to have all the ingredients except the kamut flakes in my kitchen. That never happens! Oh the importance of having a well stocked kitchen!

Here ya go!

2-3 cups of bite-size pieces of fresh fruit (i used apples, bananas. strawberries, and blueberries)
2 teaspoons spirulina
1 1/2 tablespoons any nondairy milk
2 teaspoons almond butter (for this recipe, Alicia likes to use raw)
1 1/2 teaspoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons shaved fresh or dried coconut
1/2 cup kamut flake cereal

*I know spirulina is a little expensive and you can’t find it at most chain market stores but I’ve had my bag forever! I only use it occasionally and the small bag really has lasted me so long so I’d say just splurge! (my half pound bag was $13 and I’ve had it over a year)

Divide fruit into two serving bowls.

Use a fork to stir together the spirulina and soy milk in a small glass. Add the almond butter, and mix again. Stir in the syrup and orange juice, and give it a final stir. The sauce should be smooth and neither too thick nor too runny.

Pour the sauce over the fruit, and sprinkle with the coconut and cereal. Serve immediately.
