German breakfast

Happy Earth Day, everyone! Today I made myself an old childhood favorite without realizing it until it laid on my plate. “German breakfast”. It’s three slices of bread with honey, jam (I used wild berries, but any red jam qualifies) and chocolate spread. They give you the three colors of Germany’s flag: black, red and gold.

It’s a fun way to teach your children something about other countries (look around you to find stuff for different colors. how about plum butter for blue or marshmallow paste for white? be creative!) and at the same time make breakfast a bit more interesting.
