Bulletproof Coffee My Way #SundaySupper

Isn’t it wonderful to take a few moments in the morning for yourself?  The mornings are so still and I love sitting outside when the weather allows to prepare myself  for the day.  I take a few minutes to read the paper, make a to do list for the day and savor the still mornings.  Now I’ve added something new to the mix –  Bulletproof Coffee made my way.img_8869When I first tried it I sailed through the day, I wasn’t hungry for lunch and I had no afternoon slump. That is unbelievable – I always looked forward to lunch but with this I didn’t even think about food. If you don’t like coffee, no problem, make this with chi tea, green tea or another favorite warm beverage but do try it.img_8859I had heard of Bulletproof Coffee but the thought of drinking butter and coconut oil in my coffee was less than appealing – until I tried it. It is amazing how good this coffee is. I read an article about Coconut Oil, how beneficial it is for health and started to think of ways to get more of it in my diet. Voilà – Bulletproof coffee became my hero. Many mornings I drink this with out the butter. I like butter – don’t get me wrong but it is a bit rich for me. The butter part is a bit tricky. It must be a grassfed butter.   Unsalted Kerrygold butter is the favorite of most Bulletproof fans I know. You can identify it by the silver wrapping. The gold wrapping is salted – not a great option. Salt and coffee are not something that go together.img_8848There is a secret to making bulletproof coffee, you must have a blender, frother or something to combine the elements and prevent that oil slick that can result. Properly blended ingredients produce unbelievable results. Try it I promise it will do wonders for you!img_8868There are steps to making Bulletproof Coffee. I keep small amounts of butter and coconut oils in separate containers so I can melt them easily. I find the process is much easier when they are in liquid form. Now mix the coffee, tea or beverage of choice with the butter and oil in a blender  pre heated in hot water, milk frother  (I loooove my Nespresso Aeroccino) or hand blender and go to town until the liquid is frothy. I like to add a touch of unsweetened almond milk or milk to the mix just for tradition.
