GLP-1 Tip

The sweet-savoury combo works especially well when your palate is confused by GLP-1 — something sweet feels too sweet, something savoury feels too much. The pairing lets you test the waters of both. Great for when you want a "proper breakfast" on a lower-appetite day.

Chef Notes

Maple chicken sausages (like those from supermarket premium ranges) are sweet enough that you don't need to add extra sugar to the oats — the protein powder is sweet too. Taste before sweetening further.
