Start Your Day With These Super Easy, Delicious Breakfasts For Busy Mornings
We all know breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But just because you're aware that this meal is crucial doesn't mean you always have time to whip up something delicious. From school drop-offs to busy commutes to squeezing in a sweat session, weekday mornings can often be our busiest time of day. Or, maybe you’re sick of your go-to toast or bagel and need new, easy breakfast ideas. That’s what we’re here for: to provide all the a.m. inspo you need, whether you’re craving healthy muffin recipes or easy egg recipes or healthy smoothie recipes to really power-up your day.
We rounded up the best tasty and filling breakfast recipes that will get you pumped to get out of bed for your morning meal (yes, even on Mondays), including make-ahead options, genius ideas for breakfast sandwiches, and sweet (but secretly healthy!) options that make breakfast taste like dessert. Best of all, many of these quick breakfasts take fewer than five minutes to pull together, or feature five ingredients or less. And since you’re saving so much time on breakfast, you’ll be able to cook one of our favorite healthy lunch ideas or easy dinner recipes later on in the day.
