Skipping a healthy breakfast can throw off your body’s rhythm of fasting and eating. In our previous post, we shared why many people skip breakfast for a variety of reasons. However, the importance of a healthy breakfast cannot be overemphasized.
You don’t need to eat a big meal for breakfast. The best approach is to eat a combination of foods, using nutrition as a way to give your body the fuel it needs to operate at optimal levels. With adequate planning, you can build a good breakfast routine that helps boost your overall health.
In this concluding part of the series, we share more easy breakfast options that are healthy, delicious, and quick to make.
Fruits & Nuts
- If you barely have any appetite in the mornings, then fruit is a great way to jump-start your day. Enjoy a watermelon, have a banana, an apple, peach, or nectarine.
- You also snack on a handful of raw almonds, cashew nuts, or peanuts (be sure you are not allergic) as a way to get some good protein in you.
Yogurt
- Yogurt is packed with lots of protein, which can help to keep you full. However, for a healthier option you can try unsweetened yogurt as sweetened yogurt can contain a lot of added sugar.
- You can sweeten it yourself using honey, berries, or a dash of cinnamon.
- You can even add it to your smoothie for an extra yummy bout of protein.
Healthy Smoothies for Breakfast
- The options are limitless when it comes to smoothie combinations you can make in the morning. A secret tip is to add a spoonful of peanut butter or a scoop of protein powder to a powerful blender to help you feel full.
- You can also make veggie combo smoothies by adding spinach, kale, or even an avocado to get some extra greens in you.
Healthy Meat Ideas
- For our meat lovers, a big chunk of ham in the morning isn’t the best choice. Other alternatives like turkey, bacon, sausage, or chicken is a great way to satisfy your savory tooth and pack your morning with healthy protein.
In conclusion, the start of your day will determine how your body feels. Don’t let a busy morning stop you from remembering to eat something healthy and delicious. It will help keep your energy levels up, appetite under control, body feeling strong & lean, and supported by a balanced diet.
