Tired of eating a plain toast for breakfast? There are a lot of other options to choose from. See below some breakfast inspiration from egg-muffins to smoothies.
Overnight oats
Found from Fitful Focus
If you like to take your breakfast with you, this is just the right thing. And if you don’t want to prepare breakfast in the morning, this is also the thing. Just fill the ingredients into a jar and refrigerate overnight.
Egg muffins
Found from Just a Taste
These muffins are high in protein and low in carbs. Just like an omlete, but you can take them with you more easily. And you can fill them with your favorite veggies – bell pepper, mushrooms, tomatoes, you name it.
Quesadillas
Found from One Good Thing
If you pre-cook scrambled eggs and bacon in the previous evening, it will take just a few minutes to prepare these fancy looking quesadillas on a busy morning.
Vegetable fritters
Found from Healthy Recipes
This veggie mix is for those slow mornings, when you have 25 minutes for breakfast preparation. You’ll need zucchini, carrots, eggs, garlic, scallions and a touch of flour. Sounds pretty simple, doesn’t it?
Avocado toast
Found from The Lemon Bowl
This is not a simple toast. This is Instagram-worthy avocado toast. You can add cottage cheese for protein and some veggies for vitamins. This takes just 3 minutes to make.
Spinach Quiche Cups
Found from Manila Spoon
Gluten-free and low-carb. Just like the egg muffins, but with a different filling.
Stuffed tomatoes
Found from Sweet As Honey
Vegetables – check. Low-carb meal – check. Under 20 minutes to prepare – check. This might be the next thing that I should try for breakfast.
Yogurt popsicles
Found from I Heart Naptime
Popsicle isn’t a breakfast, you say? Well, it contains fruit, granola and Greek yogurt. That sounds like a breakfast to me.
Greek yogurt muffins
Found from Running With Spoons
These muffins can be made without oil or butter – again a low-carb combination. Yogurt and oats also mean that these muffins have a good amount of protein and fiber. You will not get hungry for a few hours after such breakfast.
Egg-in-a-hole
Found from Damn Delicious
This is not a simple toast. This is a toast with eggs and … BACON! Maybe not the most healthy option here, but … BACON!
Metabolism boosting smoothie
Found from The Recipe Rebel
There is a secret blending liquid used in this smoothie. Is it milk? Is it juice? It wouldn’t be a secret, if I write it here. So open the recipe to find out!
Great article. This article is well written and I agree with everything you said. Having a healthy breakfast can change life so much. Thanks for the breakfast inspiration! I think breakfast is my absolute favorite too–I go to bed and think about what I will have too. I almost always go sweet for breakfast but sometimes love some savory—especially like on the weekends!
I’d like to have something more creative for breakfast, but I usually go for muesli, milk, and a banana. Maybe on the weekends I can try to make something fancier.
Hey Una. Very helpful post. Breakfast recipes in this blog is amazing. I am a nutritionist and I always suggest my patients who get tired easily that they should take heavy breakfast. Because a heavy and healthy breakfast will always keep them healthy throughout the day. Thanks for sharing this blog. I am going to share these recipes with my patients too.
