Fast Breakfast Fixes
What's an easy way to establish healthy eating habits? Start with a breakfast! Jump start your day with these easy
tweaks to your usual morning meal.
Breakfast Balls
Take your cereal to go with this make-ahead meal: Toss together a whole grain dry cereal (such as Kashi Go Lean) and seeds such as hemp, flax, or chia, which are rich in fiber to promote fullness. Add unsweetened dried fruit and stir in natural peanut butter. Roll into balls and freeze for 20 minutes to set.

Grecian Eggs
Scramble eggs with plain Greek yogurt to make them fluffier and higher in protein: Whisk two tablespoons yogurt and two eggs. Cook in a skillet.

Spicy Scramble
For a vegan take on scrambled eggs, cut firm tofu into cubes and toss with olive oil and turmeric, a spice that contains curcumin, which eases inflammation. Cook in a skillet until beginning to brown, then slightly mash.

Pumpkin 'Cakes
Start with a whole-grain pancake mix. Add a scoop of canned pumpkin to the batter for more fiber, beta-carotene, and potassium. Cook as usual. For a healthy topping, cook fresh or frozen berries on the stove; as they break down, they become syrupy.

Power Bagel
Swap your jumbo bagel for a small 100-percent whole-grain version—or a whole-grain English muffin, which will help with portion control. Top with mashed avocado for healthy fat and fiber and a sliced hard-boiled egg for muscle-friendly protein.

Chillin' Oatmeal
For a no-cook take on steel-cut oatmeal, try this simple overnight recipe: Stir 1/3 cup steel-cut oats, 1/3 cup low-fat plain yogurt, and 1/3 cup milk. Put in fridge overnight. Eat cold topped with unsalted chopped nuts and fruit, such as berries, bananas or raisins.
