What’s the best breakfast for you if you’re always on the go!
We’ve got you covered with our Top 5 Quick and Easy Breakfasts for those who are on the go but want to stay fit!
Below we’ll share with you five breakfasts that are easy to make, easy to eat, and will keep you out of the drive thru line.
If you want healthy meals in the morning, this is the list for you!
The Protein Smoothie is the No. 1 quick and easy breakfast if you are always on the go.
Here’s why: The smoothie has thousands of options and varieties, so it never gets boring! You can make your smoothie the night before, you can pack it in a bag, and you can even sip on it while stuck in traffic. The smoothie is extremely versatile, and can include great fresh fruits and veggies. Try one of these combos to get your day going:
- Coconut milk + almond butter + banana + cocoa powder + chocolate whey protein powder
- Coffee + chocolate whey protein powder + banana
- Almond milk + mixed berries + vanilla whey protein powder
- Almond milk + frozen banana + peanut butter + vanilla whey protein powder
The Egg Muffin or Frittata locks in our No. 2 spot for quick and easy breakfasts.
These are so great because you can prepare the whole week of breakfasts at one time! This is one of the easiest, and most healthy, meal prep options out there if you’re looking for a nutritious breakfast or snack. Whisk together some eggs or egg whites, sauteed pepper and onions, throw in some turkey sausage or bacon, pour in a pan, cook until fluffy, and there you go! Breakfast for the entire week!
The Overnight Oat is our No. 3 quick and easy breakfast.
Sometimes you don’t have time or the place to warm-up breakfast, and really need something that is grab and eat. Overnight oats are great for this situation! You can mix these up easily the night before, and add any fruit, protein powder, chia or flax seeds, and nut butters to make it delicious for you. The best breakfast recipes are the ones that practically make themselves. While you sleep overnight, the oats do their magic and “cook” while in the fridge.
Fruit and Yogurt is our No. 4 quick and easy breakfast.
These two ingredients can provide you with a good amount of protein and flavor for your morning. Grab a mason jar, throw in some berries, cover with Greek yogurt, and top it off with some granola for crunch. Disclaimer: Read the label. Yogurts and granola are high in added/processed sugar. Plain Greek yogurt is your best bet to get high protein without the added sugars. Make sure to begin your day with protein, not a sugar rush! Read here why protein is important.
The Breakfast Burrito locks in the No.5 spot in our list of quick and easy breakfasts.
This meal does require a little more time than the others. But, it is a great grab and go breakfast that can be eaten at your desk, or in your car! Scramble some egg whites with some spinach and peppers, and throw it into a gluten free tortilla! By switching out eggs for egg whites, regular sausage or bacon for turkey sausage or bacon, and the heavy flour tortilla for a gluten free choice, you severely cut down the calories while increasing the nutritiousness and deliciousness!
We hope you enjoyed this list!
