Best Healthy Breakfasts You Can Have

The morning is always busy. With kids, work and school it’s hard to find even a moment to consider putting together a healthy breakfast. You’re lucky if you grab a donut from the break room before settling in to work with your coffee. But a healthy breakfast doesn’t mean tons of time spent making it. We’ve gathered 5 healthy breakfast recipes that are fast, delicious and nutritious.

Avocado Toast with Egg

Avocado Toast with Egg


This recipe is a favorite go to. Requiring only two pieces of whole grain bread, a ripe avocado and an egg. Lightly toast the bread and fry the egg sunny side up while scooping out the ripe avocado flesh. Quick tip, you can remove the seed of the avocado by sticking a knife in it and twisting. Slice the avocado lengthwise, season with salt and pepper and drop the egg on top for a healthy dose of protein.
If you want to take it on the move, you can hard boil and slice the egg and make a simple sandwich.

Don’t be put off by the idea of using a microwave to make scrambled eggs; zapping your eggs can make for very tasty scrambled eggs. All you have to do is beat two eggs in a microwave safe dish and add some veggies (spinach and sliced cherry tomatoes work well) and a bit of cheese. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, stir and then cook for another 30 seconds or until eggs are firm. Throw a top on the container and you’re good to go.
