The Facts:
Over the ten days my routine changed very little:
Oatmeal, cooked with just water and maybe a pinch of salt. To this added: one banana sliced into half rounds and about five stewed prunes with juice. Mixed up so the bananas weren't so cold. Cleaned the bowl with an end piece of sprouted barley, whole wheat, or rye bread with miso paste spread on it. Some days I finished with a peanut butter, miso, and jelly sandwich on two different kinds of sprouted bread. Some days there was a rice porridge with fennel that I would have instead of the sandwich. One day it had kale in it.
My Opinion:
It would be nice if the food was organic, but beggars can't be choosers.
The oatmeal was fine. Made the way I would, but missing the ghee. I prefer multi whole grain hot cereals, but again beggars...choosers.
The stewed prunes were probably my favorite part. I asked the cooking staff for the recipie. They soak prunes over night and then simmer them with cinnamon and fennel. Apples can also be added.
The rice porridge was awesome, especcially with the kale. The fennel gave it a slight sweetness. I love fennel. The porridge was also really good for my digestive system.
Overall:
I was more than satisfied by the breakfast provided. I would have made the few changes listed above, but hey, the food was free.
