Now, when they say "super foods" that means that these are the best foods for you to eat?
Anyone have any suggestions for a good breakfast that is fast and portable? I am so not a morning person and usually get up with just enough time to get dressed and brush my teeth and make myself look presentable. I can't seem to eat breakfast first thing in the morning...something with a strong gag reflex that I don't understand. So, I need something that I can eat in the car. Lately it's been those prepackaged Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches, which I'm sure aren't good for you in so many ways. Any suggestions other than those cereal bars?
Thanks for this list!!
Jen, I can't do breakfast when I first get up either. and yeah, I can't think of anything worse than sausage for you. Do you like trail mix, sometimes I just eat a small bowl of cheerios, nuts, raisins, etc. mixed together. You could throw some in a baggie and go.
maybe Sandy has some better ideas.
Yes, super foods are the foods that give you the highest nutritional value for the least calories
For a quick and easy breakfast I like yogurt and granola or an apple with two tablespoons of peanut butter.
If you are home and can cook egg white omelets are the best!
I found a recipe yesterday for something I might try. Not sure if it's exactly healthy, but it sounds "healthier" than either eating nothing or breakfast sandwiches. It takes a box of the post select cereal...they have different kinds-banana nut, cranberry almond, blueberry crunch...and combines it with a little flour, honey and something else. You coat the cereal with the honey and spread it into a pan and bake it a little bit. It basically turns the cereal into cereal bars. I think I might try it b/c I do like that kind of cereal. I just can't eat a bowl of it on the mornings that I work. Like I said, it will at least be better than eating nothing.
