Yummy and Healthy Back to School Breakfast Ideas

Back to School Breakfasts that Are Sure to Please

Melissa Bradley
1. Make your own sundae: Kids love to create. Set out yogurt, granola, and a variety of fruits and nuts. Make sure to use clear plastic cups so kids can see their creations.

2. Pizza for breakfast: What kid doesn't love pizza? Having it for breakfast makes it seem extra special. Toast a regular English muffin. Add scrambled eggs, veggies and Parmesan cheese. Put under broiler just to melt cheese.

3. Another type of pizza: Toast a cinnamon bagel. Add cream cheese. Top with dried fruit and nuts.

4. Yet another pizza: Everyone has a recipe for fruit pizza lying around. Whip up one for breakfast. Try using one that doesn't call for a sugar cookie crust for maximum energy.

5. Smoothies: We all probably have a favorite smoothie recipe too. If not try this. In a blender combine 1 cup yogurt any flavor with 1/2 cup fruit juice. Add some frozen berries and Viola. You can also try add protein powder for even better energy. Serve with a few multi grain crackers.

6. PBJ and B: Peanut butter, jelly and banana. Yum

7. Trail Mix: No need to buy this expensive stuff. Make your own. Put any of the following into a baggy, shake and serve. nuts, seeds, dried fruit, granola, cereal, small candies, marshmallows, small crackers, pretzels. I love to make this when I have a bunch of bags of crackers or cereal that aren't getting eaten. For some reason when you mix them with other things they seem to disappear.

8. Leftovers: If your child isn't a breakfast person try leftovers from dinner the night before. Who cares if it's steak and green beans. It's still healthy no matter when they eat it. Try putting it in a Tupperware with spaces to make it look like a TV dinner.

9. Speaking of TV dinners: You can also make your own lunchables. So easy and cheap. Just put cut up cheese and meat in Tupperware with the spaces. Add whole grain crackers, and you are good to go. These are great for breakfast too.

All of these ideas are sure to keep your child focused and ready for the tough job they have.
