Recipe Rescue: Easing Away From a Sugary Breakfast

We all get in breakfast ruts. Running late for school and/or work, we look for the quickest option to feed our kids (and ourselves). But those options are often sugar-driven and processed. Girl, I have been there; pass the box of cereal, please.

But I’m a firm believer that consuming processed sugar makes us want to consume more sugar. Breaking away from that sugary train first thing in the morning is the name of the game. Making quick breakfasts that are nutritious and will keep bellies full until lunchtime is surprisingly easy.

These recipes take literally minutes, from cook top to breakfast table. Try some out on the weekend, see how easy they are to make, then move them into your school morning routine.
