Magical matcha, oh so tasty and versatile. I’ve put it in smoothies, balls, granola bars and now porridge. I adore the flavour and the colour so in my opinion matcha is just all around awesome. There’s still a bit of winter left, even on the Gold Coast. This porridge is perfect for those cold mornings, a bowl of sustained energy and antioxidants to keep you full and nourished.

I couldn’t resist a couple of pieces of Loving Earths dark chocolate >> match made in heaven ! Matcha made heaven.. Haha, sorry. Crunchy cacao nibs and fresh blueberries were excellent choices too. I think some berry chia jam and banana would also be delicious if the chocolate is a bit too extravagant for you to have in the morning. But seriously, just look at it oozing into itself!
