Hi friends! How is our healthy eating challenge coming along so far?? If you want to, you can add in intermittent fasting. I’ve written a whole post on it here. I’m here to give you some more healthy eating options for breakfast, because as they say: It’s the most important meal of the day. And I truly believe that!
Don’t forget to check out Heather’s post!!!
Our healthy eating challenge is almost over, but our Holiday Honey Hustle Challenge is coming up- get excited!!
Breakfast is the KEY meal to kick starting your metabolism for the day. I know it’s easy to grab a bagel or a breakfast bar and head out the door, but you’re doing your body a disservice.
Here are some healthy breakfast options for the whole family:
- Overnight oats or oatmeal with a sliced apple or raspberries.
- A bowl of cereal with fairlife ultra-filtered milk. If you’re a gym rat like me, you can add flax seeds, chia seeds, and a scoop of chocolate protein powder to your morning bowl. This gives you an extra punch of protein and healthy omegas!
- Sprouted grain bread, almond butter, sliced bananas, a little honey, and a sprinkling of coconut.
- A power smoothie (here are several options) and a piece of sprouted toast or english muffin.
- Scrambled egg whites or egg cups that you can make ahead- I love this recipe.
- Quinoa Breakfast bowls.
With each of these healthy breakfast options I do enjoy a glass of fairlife ultra-filtered milk. You all know I love fairlife and I do think it is an important building block to a healthy diet. I will either have the 1% reduced fat ultra-filtered milk or the chocolate milk. Each comes with 13 grams of protein, only 6 grams of sugar for the 1% or 12 grams of sugar for the chocolate milk, and 370mg of Calcium (365 for the chocolate milk). Those are all nutrients that will help your metabolism kick start in a healthy and smart way!
What other healthy breakfast options do you enjoy?
Great suggestions for healthy breakfasts! I’m a big fan of overnight oats if I’m in a rush, if not it’s eggs of some kind…
Mmm this looks very yummy and healthy! We currently switched to A2 milk and love it!
My oldest son has homemade oatmeal almost every day, and my youngest scrambled eggs. If we don’t have time for that, they both have a quick bowl of cereal. When I was pregnant, I had a smoothie every morning. Having a good breakfast is so important to start the day!
I would love to try the quinoa bowls one of these days. I tend to do basic things like toast or fruit for breakfast.
I struggle to eat healthy in the mornings because its’ always so busy that I don’t usually have time to prepare something healthy
The quinoa breakfast bowls sound delicious! I never had one, but I do like quinoa.
Really nice healthy breakfast meal options. We enjoy overnight oats and sprouted grain toast al well.
I love overnight oats or a smoothie bowl for breakfast. I’ve never tried Fairlife. I’ll check it out!
Each time I see overnight oats, I want to make the so badly! Then life happens and I forget each time, sigh. I have seen Fairlife on the shelves, now that I know all the positive attributes, going to give it a go. 2% for me and I’ll treat my kids with a chocolate milk one; yum!
Scrambled egg whites or egg cups that you can make ahead is perfect for breakfast Love your suggestions!
I do egg muffins. They are so great and you can pack them full of veggies too!
This breakfast looks delightful. I admittedly don’t do well with planning breakfast but something simple like this would be great for me.
I am a huge breakfast lover and these are some incredible suggestions. I will definitely give them a try and they are so healthy too.
