Healthy breakfasts that keep you full

Already hungry only an hour after breakfast?

Try these healthy breakfasts, which contain a good mix of carbs, protein and healthy fats to give you energy and keep you fuller for longer:

• Go for two scrambled eggs, a slice of whole-wheat toast spread with a small scoop of avocado or nut butter, and half a cup of fruit.

• Cook oatmeal with milk or soy milk instead of water for a protein-rich meal, and stir in some protein powder, nut butter or yoghurt for an extra protein burst. Top with fresh fruit, flax or chia seeds and nuts.

• Add fresh fruit, chopped walnuts and granola to a pot of yoghurt.
