A favorite of the raw crowd, this recipe is rich in essential fats and protein from the almonds and sunflower seeds. It is a heavier breakfast than a rich complex carbohydrate breakfast, such as our personal favorite, oatmeal porridge. We are noting this because we believe strongly that we should keep food simple and satisfying. Our live scramble is best served as a side for brunch rather than a main course.
