Paleo & Keto Matcha Breakfast Bowl

Image
Think of this overnight paleo and keto matcha breakfast bowl as an ideal way to kickstart your day: a true  nutritional powerhouse , packed with  antioxidants and fiber . Paleo & Keto Matcha Breakfast Bowl  Overnight This matcha bowl with chia seeds has been  my go-to breakfast  as of late. It’s  quick , packed with  fiber , incredibly  nutrient dense , and  delicious . As in, it checks all the right boxes.

I’ve shared a few versions of this classic dip but this is my favorite version. It is just SO good!! I took the classic version, the one you’ll find all over the interwebs and added my own spin to it. I started with the classic canned refried beans. I used RosaritaRefried Beans, they’re my go-to canned refried beans. You can find them at Walmart. I added my own seasoning blend to the beans (seasoning packets have their place just not here, typically you’ll find a whole packet of seasoning in these too – I think that’s just too much I want to be able to taste everything else), I also used homemade guacamole, nixed the salsa and rather added a can of  Ro*tel Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies (and I mixed them right into the beans it gives them a great flavor). And then I...
