Well, always drink a glass of water right when you wake up because it also wakes up your organs. Also set up your breakfast the night before as it will give you less prep time in the morning. Fruits are always good to include in a healthy breakfast.

I make my breakfast at night and put in a container so I can eat it at work if needed. I also keep healthy and substantial musli bars for a quick snack as I run out the door. I often run late because I over sleep.

I have a simple go-to breakfast that I can easily change up a bit to keep it interesting. Every work day I have chia seeds, soy milk, a banana and then different combinations of cinnamon powder, raisins, nuts, seeds and peanut butter. It’s also something I can make the night before and easily take to work.

Protein like egg and meat is good for energy.Better avoid sugar coated foods coz they destroy ur energy after 30 mins .Apple and Banna is also great for breakfast and they are less time required to prepare

My go-to breakfast every morning is oats, frozen blueberries, banana and soy milk heated in the microwave for 2min. If I don’t have time for that or not feeling like a full breakfast I always have a cashew/almond/cranberry nut mix handy so grab a hand-full of that.

My breakfast recipe: Overnight oats. Really easy to prepare at night and even easier to eat in the morning. I prepare my mix in batches and then each night simply mash a banana, pour some of the mix, put some frozen berries on top and add soy milk. In the morning I usually cut some fresh fruits as well. Oats: 420g Flax seeds: 100g (crushed) Chia seeds: 15g Cocoa: 25g Cinnamon: 5g Almonds (or other nuts): 100g (crushed) Dried Coconut: 50g Optional: Four Sigmatic’s 10 Mushroom Blend, Amla Powder

Meal planning is a great way to help you plan ahead for the coming days and also give you an idea of what to be shopping for. I always enjoy researching what I can eat, what is good for me, and try to find recipes that incorporate those foods. My healthiest mornings are when I just throw everything in a blender because I am not keen on eating first thing in the morning but my coffee and a smoothy go down great. Knowing that I do this, I prepare my ingrdients in advance and have things prepared and ready to go. Once it becomes habit, it is a routine that you don’t have to put much thought into.

sauceI’ve struggled to make breakfast work for me too, but here’s a few that have helped: grapes and cheese are easy to grab on the go and eat in the car or set out and grab as your doing stuff in the kitchen; I make a batch of buckwheat based pancakes (and will add other flavors too, pumpkin, coconut, banana, etc) with fresh berry sauce, I found this flour keeps and reheats better than wheat and is way more filling.

Prepare overnight oats in the evening. I also like to make a cup of peppermint tea and take it with me to drink while I’m getting ready in the bathroom

Planning ahead, shopping for supplies, getting as much prepped the night or week before as possible so you don’t have to think about it in the morning.
