How do you make yourself enjoy making breakfast that takes more than 30 seconds?

I enjoy cooking. I think about the nutrients it’s going to give me and I think of breakfast as time for me to prepare myself for the day ahead - I sit and.enjoy coffee and read the news and prepare for work so I look forward to all of it.

I really enjoy cooking! Making a nice breakfast is always a treat, putting on some music or a show can make it more fun if you really don’t want to cook

Focus on the elements you are putting together. Put the first two in. Then imagine the combination of flavors. Add the next and repeat. Keep going until it’s time to cook and/or eat.

Mine doesn’t take very long. I just heat up a skillet and fry 2 eggs and meanwhile toast a piece of bread in the oven. Then I add salsa and avocado. But i tidy up things in my kitchen and surroundings during the dead time while the eggs are frying. That makes me feel productive and have a more peaceful and orderly environment in which to enjoy my breakfast.

Well i really enjoy cooking on my own terms and it actually makes me happy when i cook a full breakfast instead of just eating cereal, its a great start to self-care.

I make food that I know I like, therefore it’s more enjoyable thinking that in a few minutes you’ll be able sit down to have your beautiful and healthy breakfast that you just made.

I don’t have a way to make this more enjoyable as I am definitely NOT a morning person. I bake oatmeal cups for the week (oatmeal mixed with milk and eggs in muffin cups) and plan those as my breakfast on most weekday mornings. Sometimes I also keep hard boiled eggs in the fridge. If I have a more relaxed morning then I make eggs. Making sure the kitchen is clean before bedtime is critical to helping me be willing to spend time preparing food in the morning.

I ensure the breakfast I make does not involve too much preparation or cooking. I also make sure I incorporate dopamine boosting ingredient to motivate me in making it. Dopamine foods include: • Dairy foods such as milk, cheese and yogurt •Eggs • Fruit and vegetables, in particular bananas • Nuts such as almonds and walnuts • Dark chocolate • etc Planning a menu for the week can help too Speeding up preparation

I try to make things I know I’ll really enjoy/look forward to eating. I focus on all the benefits of whatever I’m making and try to hype it up as much as possible. While cooking, I might also watch a show I like or listen to music so that it’s a fun positive experience and not a chore.

There is no breakfast that takes only 30. I love to listen to music when making my food, it’s relaxing and much more enjoyable. Good habit to have.
