Banana and honey porridge

Porridge will set you up perfectly for a busy day and if you add banana it will do double duty by getting in another serve of fruit. Oats have a high glycaemic index and this leaves you feeling fuller for longer. They also aid digestion. You can have this on the table in under 5 minutes.
