Slide show: The Mediterranean diet
By Mayo Clinic staff
Start the day the Mediterranean way
What does breakfast look like when you're following the Mediterranean diet? Appealing and full of fiber-rich foods, such as fruit and whole grains, that can keep you feeling pleasantly full for hours. This version uses plain Greek yogurt, blueberries, apples slices, whole-grain toast and peanut butter.
