Breakfast Recipes
Studies have shown that adults and children who start their day with a healthy breakfast are more mentally alert throughout the day and less likely to be overweight.
Healthy Breakfast Ideas
Here are some breakfast ideas. First, the traditional ones:
- Eggs
- French toast, waffles, or pancakes (try wheat or whole-grain varieties)
- Cold cereal and milk
- Hot cereal, such as oatmeal or cream of wheat (try some dried fruit or nuts on top)
- Whole-grain toast, bagel, or English muffin with cheese
- Yogurt with fruit or nuts
- Fruit smoothie
And now for some creative (and yummy) ones:
- Banana dog (peanut butter, a banana and raisins in a long whole-grain bun)
- Breakfast quesadilla (shredded cheese on a tortilla, folded in half and micro waved, top with salsa)
- Country cottage cheese (apple butter mixed with cottage cheese)
- Fruit and cream cheese sandwich (use strawberries or other fresh fruit)
- Sandwich (grilled cheese, peanut butter and jelly or another favorite)
- Leftovers (they are not just for dinner anymore!)
