Breakfast Ideas Print E-mail
Written by Angelle Batten, HHC, MEd   
We all have one body during this lifetime, and your child has you to provide his body with REAL food - food that will truly nourish him and support him living their healthiest, happiest lives.The cereals and packaged yogurts many children are eating for breakfast are filled with fake ingredients, including sugar and processed 'enriched' flour. It is wise to have ourselves and our children eat REAL food for breakfast, and remember to include a good amount of protein and fat. This will set your child up for a day of activity and learning. It can also positively affect their mood and behavior. Consider eating what we traditionally think of as lunch and dinner foods at breakfast. Yes, leftovers are fun and easy!
  • organic eggs – scrambled with some tomatoes or a vegetable
  • plain organic yogurt with blueberries, vanilla, ground flax seed and a little honey 
  • turkey or chicken slices with some fruit and/or veggies
  • steel cut oats with some organic eggs cooked in for protein
  • homemade soup or chili
  • leftover casserole 
  • a smoothie made with organic yogurt, flax seeds, almonds and berries, honey – great for teens on the run
  • cut-up fruit and veggies with some organic cottage cheese or almond butter for dipping and spreading
