Three Quick Breakfast Foods for People On-the-go
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but if you don’t have a lot of time to sit down for a full meal, you don’t have to skip it entirely. In fact, breakfast meals should be easy to prepare and take no more than ten or fifteen minutes at most, and the faster the better.
Here are a few quick ones that you can do in less than five:
Sandwich
Bread is a pretty versatile carbohydrate food item that goes well either on its own or as the carbohydrate cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast. These are the following ingredients that bread goes well with for a quick sandwich:
• Mayonnaise
• Peanut butter and Jelly
• Cheese
• Butter
And these are the ingredients that go along with bread, but can also stand alone on their own as a full meal:
• Eggs – Great protein and one of the greatest versatile food items in the kitchen that you can add scrambled, as an omelet, or even paired with a few slices of avocado in between two slices of loaf bread for an eggs benedict.
• Ham/Bacon – They go amazing with or without cheese and eggs, with their only downside being that they may take some time to thaw from the fridge. Add sausages to the plate and you have yourself an English breakfast.
• Chicken – This might take a little time to prepare, so it’s best to cook it the night before if you have to wake up really early. Mix with fresh lettuce and tomatoes and a dash of mayonnaise for a quick chicken sandwich.
Cereal / Trail Mix
These are quick grain meals full of vitamins, minerals, and fiber that anyone can prepare. Cereals only need milk, and you can buy pre-mixed trail snacks as they are, or you can combine them yourself from a whole host of different nuts and berries available at any supermarket.
Fruits
Fruits make for a good healthy option – apples, bananas, and even oranges are relatively cheap and should last a while with proper storage. Another advantage to fruits is that they’re quite versatile.
For instance, you can throw them in the blender for a quick smoothie, add them to yogurt to make it more flavorful, or even make fruit salad simply by adding diced pieces of them together in a bowl. You can put yogurt or condensed milk in the mix for more sweetness.
