It’s hard not to get excited about citrus season. Not only are the bajillion varieties so pretty, but they make everything smell so lovely. Today we have our Blood Orange and Beet Salad over Honeyed Yogurt. I’m generally not a sweet breakfast person, so I’ll go for things like eggs, avocado toast, breakfast burritos over cinnamon rolls, french toast and pancakes any day. I love all those things, but it’s hard for me to start my day off on a sugar high. If I am going to do something sweet, I’ll generally go for something like this dish. It’s naturally sweet from the blood oranges, with just a hint of added sweetness from the honey. I love this dish so much as a morning sweet treat, or even as a guiltless dessert. It’s simple, clean and pretty refreshing; perfect for an early Valentine’s Day breakfast this weekend. Enjoy! xx, Jenny
