31 Healthy and Fast Breakfast Recipes for Busy Mornings

 

Overnight oats are a popular and nutritious breakfast option for busy mornings. They are great for portable lunches, and a slow cooker is a perfect appliance for preparing the oats, which can be eaten in the morning or later in the evening. One from "The Kitchen" has blueberries, almonds, coconut, cinnamon, and chia seeds.

 

Oatmeal is one of the healthiest breakfasts around. It can be made quickly, and you cannot mess it up. The oats keep you full for hours, which can also help with weight management. There are many flavors available for oatmeal, but savory oatmeal may not be one you have tried yet, so here is a recipe to get you started on some tremendous delicious oats. Eggs are used in this recipe to add protein and some flavor to the oats while keeping them under 300 calories per serving. This recipe also makes six servings at only 66 calories per serving!

 

This recipe contains salt, pepper, herbs de Provence (kosher or Italian seasoning), olive oil cooking spray (or two tablespoons of olive oil), 1 cup of fresh spinach (baby spinach is a good choice), 1 cup of shredded carrots, and two thinly sliced garlic cloves.

 

Quinoa is a seed, often called the "gold of the Incas". It is high in protein and contains all nine essential amino acids. Quinoa has a mild flavor and cooks quickly, making it an ideal breakfast or on-the-go meal. A few ways to enjoy quinoa are with fruit and yogurt or in a sweet and savory dish like this three ingredient chia porridge, which provides you with 4 grams of fiber!

This recipe from The Fitchen that I have often used for breakfast. I love its simplicity and how it includes just three ingredients and about 5 minutes of work time. This is also a perfect breakfast for on-the-go because you can store this pudding in an insulated container, like my favorite to-go mug from Target that keeps your food hot or cold for hours!

 

This recipe contains raw organic honey, unsalted peanut butter, 1/2 cup coconut milk, one freeze-dried banana (unsweetened), two teaspoons chia seeds, and four ice cubes.

 

The concept of mindfulness meditation has been around since the Buddhist tradition was created more than 2500 years ago. It is a type of meditation in which the person focuses on their breathing and is entirely aware of their thoughts and actions at any given moment.

 

This is another great on-the-go breakfast idea that you can make ahead of time. It contains only three ingredients, egg whites, 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce, and 2 tbsps maple syrup. You toast two cinnamon raisin bread slices until they are dry and crispy.

 

Spread the bread with honey and place one slice on the bottom of your container. Mix together the egg whites, applesauce and maple syrup until well combined. Pour this mixture over top of the bread slice in your container. Cover with the second toasted bread piece, then cover everything with plastic wrap or a sealable sandwich bag (to avoid spilling). Refrigerate overnight before enjoying for breakfast!
