Do meal prep. Cut up fresh fruits at night and put them in a plastic container (berries, pineapple, oranges, watermelon). You can also prep a simple sandwich like peanut butter on wheat toast. Don’t forget the water!
My mornings always feel busy, so I totally get it. I do a few different things. Every Friday I meal plan for the next week starting Monday, which tells me what I’m having for breakfast every day and every other meal. I meal prep on Saturday/Sunday. I hate reheated eggs but I chop up whatever I’m having in my eggs or prep what I’m having with them (I tend to do a piece of bred with turkey and cheese and maybe some fruit with my eggs). I also will have a protein shake if I don’t have time to make eggs. I use a vegan protein powder, almond milk, agave, pumpkin spice or cinnamon, ice and a splash of coffee. I will sometimes also throw in some fiber and greens as well. It’s super filling and easy when you need to run out of the house. I put it in my shaker jug and just shake it on my way out the door!
I eating a very simple one. I prepare same of them. I cut tomatoes and cheese so when I wake up there are only two things left, breed and egg. Oh also I need coffee and the machine makes my coffee. So my advice is prepare something you want the day before. Have a nice and lovely day!
I make up coconut oatmeal on Sunday (it takes just as much time to make 7 as it does 1!) Then I put them in mason jars. During the week, all I need to do is microwave it for 2min. And if I don’t even have that I’ll throw it in my bag and microwave it at work!
Every night before I go to bed, I write out a check list of everything I want to achieve in my morning. I make sure to include my breakfast and exactly what I am going to make. Each morning I go through my check list to ensure I get through everything on my routine.
I try to always keep it simple since I’m busy (or late) most of the time. Try some iogurt with oatmeal and fruit or nuts. Add a big of dark chocolate if you are feeling it ;). If you have a bit more time and what to make it fancy try toast with cheese (ricotta or cream or somethinf of the sort) and smoked or marinated salmon on top. And don’t forget some fruit! An apple, banana or some strawberries, whatever you prefer. You can even decorate that to make it fancier but it’s delicious and healthy all the way. And still simple :)
When I know that I’m going to be busy I opt for breakfasts that I can make before hand. It requires a little bit of planning but something like overnight oats, a homemade granola parfait or making the banana pancake batter the night before works for me. There are a lot of recipes online if you even want to make a breakfast bar!
If I have more time in the morning, I don’t worry about it as much, but I try to make sure to have breakfast options that are easy to have on the go. A banana and peanut butter is a fast option that is pretty easy to bring with you. I think being able to have a variety of breakfast options is key!
if i know i am going to hwve busy start to my day i will often prepare breakfast the night before. for example maybe i’m having a smoothie i will collect all the fruit and such and place it in a plastic bag in the freezer. then come morning, i throw the bag in the blender with some juice and yogurt and voila! super simple will take you three minutes maximum:)
I’m so used to eating a nice breakfast that I now look forward to it every day! I can’t go without eating something in the morning!
