I typically eat my breakfast on the run. Any tips on getting more time to eat before I have to leave?

I would recommend waking up a little earlier, or making sure you do more things the night before so you clear up time in the morning. Eating a quick and simple breakfast saves time too – some fruit usually works for me, because it’s refreshing enough to wake you up and something like an apple can be pretty filling. To start with, look at what you do every morning, and see what you can love around. If there’s food you can prepare the night before then do that instead of leaving it for the morning. Personally, I try and devote at least 20 minutes for breakfast, and I do that by making sure I have everything organised and ready to go before I go to sleep. This will save you time, which you can now out towards eating a good breakfast, and it won’t demand as much of you when you’ve just woken up. Good luck!

I used to eat my breakfast at the office, when I arrived, but I always felt tired on the way there, so in the last week I started to wake up earlier every day (by 10 minute) and now I eat my breakfast befor I leave. A thing that works for me is that I usualy eat simple things that don’t need much time to cook(like yougurt and cornflakes, I don’t know if that is a good enough breakfast, but for me is enough sometimes) or if you want something more you can prepar them the night before and put them in the fridge so you când just heat them a little in the morning

Well, other than waking up any earlier, maybe re-order the way you do things. Try and eat breakfast as soon as you get up, then get dressed and all the other stuff you need to do. Worth a try

Try to wake up a few minutes earlier or to spend less time getting dressed or making up your bed. Preparing everything you’ll need the night before is also a great way of gaining extra time.

I love a couple extra minutes to sleep. so I prep the coffee machine at night. another thing is you could make a big batch of overnight oats on Sunday and have one every morning. make them in old hard so you can grab em on the go and put different fruits and flavours

I would recommend getting up just a few minutes earlier if possible… 105minutes would be enough. It will give you time to dry a couple of eggs or make oatmeal. Also if you google “breakfast oats parfait”, there is a great recipe by the Food Babe for a delicious fruit/oat breakfast you can make at night and keep on the fridge. Then you only need about 8 minutes to eat it… no morning prep required at all!

Do scrambled eggs while you brew your coffee. Take and apple or banana if you have little time to eat on the go or later

Well, my tip would be to wake up earlier, but that’s easier said than done. For that, maybe do tgat in steps. Decide that yiu want to eakr up at a certain time but instead of starting with that time slowly work towards it in steps of 10 or 5 minutes. That could help give you more time in the morning. Otherwise, maybe prepare breakfast in the evening so that you dont waste as much time in the norning to prepare it.

I struggle eatinf breakfast. I grew up eating breakfast at 10am after I studied a bit. But now I work and often skip breakfast due to the morning rush. I fight the urhe to skip breakfast by eating muesli and yogurt or boled eggs and bananas.

get some of the free food at your school or workplace. it’s mostly healthy and on the go so you can start work right away or just relax while munching on some goods
