Does your day start like you are an air traffic controller? Everyone is racing around. You are heading out the door to work, to school. Make a hot breakfast? Really! You are happy if your shoes match.

The importance of breakfast lies in the word itself. By eating breakfast, we are actually breaking the fast that was induced during the long gap of time from the meal eaten the previous night. When we wake up in the morning, most of our energy is used up and it needs to be re-energized in order to go through our daily routines.

Starting your day with proteins and whole grains provides that long term energy needed to carry you through out your day. Fast and easy healthy breakfasts start with time-saving, easy recipes.

Slow Cooker Oatmeal – use your slow cooker to make hearty oatmeal overnight while you sleep. You can have fun and mix up the dried fruit to fit your family’s tastes.

A Complete Breakfast in a Finger Food – Enjoy individual little pies you can make a head of time. Making up your pies is simple and quick, too. Then pop them in the microwave to heat and run.

Eating a healthy start to your day provides rewards through brain power, energy, and a healthy beginning to a nutritious day. This is important whether you are a child or an adult. Having fun with these recipes equals delicious, easy, and quick, hot breakfast to your day.
