Start off your day the quick and easy way!
What do you think of when you hear the words “quick breakfast”? Cereal? Granola bars? Fast food breakfast sandwich? Bagel? Just coffee? These rather bland and unhealthy foods come to the minds of most people. However, they don’t have to. We have put together 15 quick and easy breakfast recipes that are healthy and far from bland.
On top of the above breakfast options being bland and unhealthy, they’re also sneaky weight-gain agents for those trying to shed pounds rather than gain them. The recipes below are the opposite. Believe me. Once I changed my breakfast options, I changed the name of the game.
Making simple breakfast shifts not only helped me lose weight because my body was kept satisfied for longer, but also because it set the mood for the rest of the day. What was that mood? Healthy!
See for yourself! Read on to discover 15 quick and easy breakfast recipes that are healthy and satisfying!
