Looking for an easy breakfast that you can make ahead of time, then reheat during the week?
Want to serve a nutrient-dense breakfast that will set your child up for success, allowing them to do their very best learning at school?
If I do just one thing to set myself up for a successful week, it is to prepare a breakfast that is easy to reheat. This allows me to quickly feed my girls a balanced, nutrient-dense breakfast – and get them out the door, on time! It also means that I don’t have to do any cooking at 6am, when I’m still half asleep; ensuring that I can sit and enjoy a hot cup of coffee and start my own day off strong.
These breakfasts doesn’t last all five weekday mornings, so I will either fry up an egg with avocado toast; blend up a smoothie; or make a yogurt parfait with plain yogurt, frozen blueberries, and a low sugar granola when I don’t have a breakfast on hand. If you’re looking for more easy breakfast ideas, check out this post.
Here are the four quick and easy breakfast recipes I rotate every week for a month, then start over again. All of the recipes are gluten-free and dairy-free, with the exception of the Sweet Potato Quiche, which contains cheese.
If you have a child who is hesitant to try new foods, give these three tips a try:
- Involve your child in making the recipe! I have often found through my kids cooking classes that kids are often more eager to dive into something that they have made. Cooking is also a great bonding activity to do with your child. You can read about the many other benefits of getting your kids in the kitchen, here.
- Give our Taste-o-Meter a try. This is an amazing tool to add to your parenting toolbox. Instead of asking your child to take a bite, say “tell me what you’d rate this!” This turns trying a new food into a game, by both making it fun and taking the pressure off. This tool can be a game changer for many parents who struggle with their kids’ picky eating. You can download it for FREE here.
- While you’re there, be sure to download our FREE Picky Eater Guide! It includes our top 10 tips to raising healthy eaters, plus a bonus smoothie recipe!
