The lazy days of summer are almost over. Soon kids will be rushing out the door to school and they will need a quick, healthy breakfast.
Parents need a healthy breakfast too. Just because you don’t have much time doesn’t mean you should skip the most important meal of the day. Here are some quick breakfast ideas for busy mornings.
Few Breakfast Ideas suggested for Busy Mornings
SMOOTHIES
Like tortilla wraps, the variety of smoothies you can make are endless. A basic smoothie consists of milk or yogurt, fruit (your favorite variety), ice, and maybe some extras such as peanut butter or honey. You are only limited by your imagination. The smoothie is portable and healthy.
PIZZA
Who says that pizza is only for dinner? Pizza making does not have to be a big production. Start with an English muffin and spread a tablespoon of spaghetti sauce on each half. Top with cheese and your favorite pizza toppings. Heat in the toaster oven until the cheese is bubbly. Enjoy!
PANCAKES AND WAFFLES MADE EASY
Making pancakes and waffles can be time consuming if you make the batter in the morning and have to wait for the waffle iron to heat up. Try making a large batch of either pancakes or waffles over the weekend. Wrap them in individual packages and place in the freezer. Reheat them in the toaster oven on school mornings.
LEFTOVERS
Dinner leftovers make a great, hearty breakfast for kids and adults. Spaghetti, lasagna, tuna casserole, even meatloaf can be reheated in the microwave quickly in the morning. This type of breakfast is usually high in protein and will stick with you longer than sweet breakfast cereals or sugary donuts. I’m sure you’ve probably tried breakfast for dinner before. Why not try dinner for breakfast?
