Breakfast bread bowls
I do love Spring,you know?All its beautifuly vivid colours and fresh flavours.Everything around is waking up,ready to bloom,and so am I.Finally.The days lenghten only by a couple of hours and I no longer drag myself out of bed.Instead,I spring out with the first signs of sun rays bashfully peeking through the curtains.It feels soooo great!Slow and longer mornings,exactly how I like them.Although it’s still too cold to sit outside early in the morning,I wrap myself in a blanket I enjoy my first cup of tea on the patio with bare feet,listening to the silence and waiting for my breakfast to cook in the oven.
I’ve realized everything has changed around me.Everyday seems the same but when I look back everything is different.I wish some things stayed the same but I think I’ve learn to accept that life is constantly in motion, and changes are its inevitable part.What it would be like if my world always looked the same?I can’t even imagine it.Can you?Or if I wasn’t able to change my mind or my opinion.That would be terribly traumatic…After all,every change brings a new learning lesson and make us who we are.
Somwhere deep down I only hope that one thing will never be different-the way I celebrate my mornings.Those little things like a warm cup of tea,a kind smile of someone we care about and breakfast shared together are the big things really.
I’d come across bread bowl’s recipe few times when I was flicking through Pinterest,and I’d always wanted to make them,but It wasn’t until I saw them on Marianna’s blog when I thought it’s time for my own ‘customized’ breakfast bread roll.
I chose mushroom,garlic and rosemary filling with a slice of mozzarella for this recipe but you could use any of your favourite ingredients.Parma ham and sun dried tomatoes?Spinach,lemon and ricotta maybe?
Whatever your choice it’s a recipe you will go back to.
Enjoy and have a lovely day xxx
