While it might be tempting to reach for unhealthy convenience foods on mornings when you have a full schedule, enjoying a healthy, easy breakfast is simpler than you might think. Here are some of my favorite ways to enjoy an easy breakfast!</span></span></div> <b id="docs-internal-guid-734281b5-ba68-1e19-da3f-e2a7db49cc91" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Overnight oats are an easy breakfast that uses ingredients you probably already have in your pantry. Simply mix ½ cup of your favorite oats (this is a great way to make steel cut oats) with about ⅔ cup of unsweetened almond milk (you can also use coconut milk). Stir in about one teaspoon of honey or maple syrup for just a hint of sweetness, and let the mixture sit in your refrigerator overnight. In the morning, give it a stir and add some extra milk if you prefer a thinner consistency. Top with some nuts or fresh fruit, and you’ve got a delicious and easy breakfast. You can even store your overnight oats in the fridge for a few days if needed.</span></span></div> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Egg muffins have become a popular easy breakfast, and with good reason! They’re packed with protein, and you can fill them with your favorite veggies to make them extra tasty. Since they’re pre-baked, you can make a large batch and store the extras in your fridge or freezer. Crack about six eggs into a bowl (you can sub in egg whites for a few of the eggs if you prefer) and whisk them, then add about ¾ cup of cottage cheese. From there, simply add your favorite veggies (diced into small pieces). You can make your egg muffins even more filling by adding some cooked quinoa or brown rice. Spray a muffin tin and fill each cup just over halfway with the egg mixture. Bake them at 350 degrees for around 20-25 minutes, and you’ve got an easy breakfast that you can store in your fridge or freezer. Just pop them in the microwave when you’re ready to enjoy them.</span></span></div> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you’re short on time and didn’t get a chance to prepare anything in advance, try an easy breakfast that requires almost no preparation. Spread some nut butter over a whole wheat tortilla, and roll it around a peeled banana or fill it with an assortment of berries for an easy breakfast that you can enjoy on your way out the door. Plain Greek yogurt topped with some honey and fruit makes for another quick and easy breakfast that tastes surprisingly creamy and indulgent.</span></span></div> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Try some of these ideas and see what you think! Once you find a few easy breakfast recipes you enjoy, it’s so simple to keep those items on hand, so you’re ready to tackle even the busiest mornings.
