If you’re a breakfast person like me, if you go without it, you get irritable and groggy. But sometimes you just don’t know what to eat and it is so boring to have avocado toast AGAIN.
So here are a few tips to keep it fresh and healthy so you can wake up excited to eat breakfast!
In this blog post, I’ll share with you some easy, healthy eating tips for breakfast planning:
1.Plan your breakfast the night before
One of the easiest ways to ensure that you have a healthy breakfast is to plan it the night before. This can be as simple as setting out your ingredients or preparing a smoothie bowl that you can just grab and go in the morning. Overnight oats is another great option. This way, you won’t be tempted to reach for unhealthy options when you’re in a rush.
2. Include a variety of nutrients
Your breakfast should include a variety of nutrients to help you feel satisfied and energized. Make sure to include protein, healthy fats, and fiber in your breakfast. For example, you could have a veggie omelet with avocado and a slice of gluten-free toast.
3. Avoid processed foods
Processed foods are often high in sugar and unhealthy fats, and they can leave you feeling sluggish and tired. Instead of processed cereals, opt for whole, unprocessed foods like fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains (like oats). These foods will give you the energy you need to power through your day.
4. Make a smoothie
Smoothies are a great way to pack in a lot of nutrients in one meal. You can mix and match your favorite fruits, vegetables, and protein sources to create a delicious and healthy breakfast. Plus, they’re easy to take on the go. Cut up frozen banana and keep it in the freezer to make quick smoothies.
5. Don’t skip breakfast
Skipping breakfast can lead to overeating later in the day, as well as low energy levels and difficulty focusing. Even if you’re not a morning person, try to make time for a healthy breakfast each day. On busy mornings, try apple slices with some peanut butter and cinnamon.
6. Use weekends to prep
Preparing healthy grab-and-go breakfasts can be done on the weekends. Foods like homemade granola, trail mix, healthy breakfast muffins, and parfaits will keep for at least 4 days in the fridge. These are great to have for busy mornings.
7. Try new healthy breakfast ideas
Don’t be afraid to try new healthy breakfast ideas. You might be surprised at how much you enjoy something you’ve never tried before. Plus, trying new things keeps your breakfast routine interesting and fun. For example, have you tried Sweet Potato Toast?
