Healthy & Quick Breakfast Ideas

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day!
You spend eight hours with no food or water. You're dehydrated, your blood sugar is low and you have little energy. It's always the same, get up and GO, hurry the kids off to school before the eight-hour workday.
Who has time? YOU DO and here's a few suggestions how to fit in the most important meal of the day
-Prepare a casserole the night before. Pop it in the microwave when you wake up and it will be ready to go, and most likely you will have left overs for a day or two.
-Incorporate complex carbohydrates, such as whole wheat toast and bagels with peanut butter
-Bake bran muffins early in the week, and then grab one on your way out the door.
-Make waffles over the weekend and freeze the leftovers. You can pop ‘em in the toaster for a homemade breakfast. Or if you should chose the grocery stores sell frozen whole grain selections.
-Make a breakfast tortilla.
-Cold cereal. NOT those covered with sugar, but the healthy variety; Wheaties and Cheerios are always good choices. Top it with low-fat milk.
-Hard Boil Eggs this can also be done ahead of time, take it out of the fridge and go.
-Make a shake or a smoothie. Blend fruit and yogurt or cottage cheese for even more thickness and then drink it in the car.
-Prepare small snack baggies of grapes, granola, raisins, strawberries, etc. Grab it and go!
And these are just to name a few suggestions.
Have fun and be creative with your meals throughout the day.
