High Protein, Whole food Breakfast Ideas
For most people mornings can be a little hectic. I created a breakfast cheat sheet for my family with some delicious and nutritious breakfast ideas. I hope it can help take the guess work out of breakfast and get a nutritious meal on the table (or at least in your hands) before you run out the door.
Simple go-to options:
Eggs + avocado + toast
Oatmeal with fruit + nuts or nut butter
Smoothie with protein powder or nut butter added
Leftover roasted sweet potatoes + cooked spinach + eggs
Yogurt parfaits with berries and nuts and granola
Make ahead options:
Oatmeal bake + Turkey sausage (I like to make up a batch of my own turkey sausage patties and add finely diced mushrooms to boost the nutrition.)
What you need: oats, milk, frozen berries, eggs, ground turkey sausage, mushrooms (optional)
What you need: Sweet potato, turkey sausage, red onion, bell pepper, spinach, eggs, avocado
Breakfast muffins (Delicious! But don’t freeze the best.)
What you need: frozen hash browns, bell pepper, eggs, onion, pork sausage
Zucchini Waffles with nut butter (I added a cup of grated zucchini instead of the banana and serve with a whole piece of fruit if I don’t have time to make the cooked apple topping. These freezer well!)
What you need: Oats, zucchini, egg or flaxseed, milk, vanilla, pure maple syrup
