Our Top 5 Picks for Breakfast on the Go
A breakfast that is healthy, convenient, and tasty may seem almost impossible these days. Instead of reaching for a box of cereal or buying that muffin we have put together a quick list so you can have amazing on the go breakfasts all year round.
- Make Ahead Smoothie Freezer Packs
- Quesadillas
- Mug Muffins
- Hard-boiled Eggs with Tasty Toppings
- Frozen yoghurt sticks
A delicious way to get ‘your 5 a day’ while on the go. In a Ziploc bag add your chosen fruit and vegetables, along with any frozen yoghurt you wish to add. For a truly practical and on the go solution have your bag of fruit and veg ready, some pre measured powdered milk and blitz with water in a portable personal blender.
Usually made with corn tortillas and filled with meat, cheese and spices, Quesadillas have been transformed in recent years into a meal with endless options. Using a wholemeal wrap you can add eggs, beans, vegetables and other healthy savoury options. Sweet options can also be made up with cream cheese, peanut butter with fruits like apple, banana or strawberries with nuts and honey. To make ahead fill your wrap and fold, wrap in foil and freeze. To cook use a sandwich press. There are flavour combinations for everyday!
No need to empty all your kitchen cupboards to bake, mug muffins are a great treat breakfast that can have some lighter options included such as instant oats, sliced banana and berries. There are a number of savoury and sweet recipes available online, and some can be made ahead with all ingredients place in a container the night before and add water or milk, so you can even enjoy in the office.
Want a new breakfast everyday with no effort and on budget? Its hard to believe but hard-boiled eggs are just the solution you need. Make up hardboiled eggs at the beginning of the week and make different toppings or fillings to dip and fill your eggs in. Some flavour combinations are crispy quinoa with herbs and spices, pepitas, guacamole, seeds and simple salt and pepper.
Sometimes summertime heat means you do not feel like filling up on breakfast. Try turning your normal yoghurt into a portable and chilled breakfast. Purchase a low sugar option of yoghurt with a replaceable lid and make a slit in the lid. Open the yoghurt and top the yoghurt with berries, nuts or roasted oats and replace with the lid, and place a popsicle stick through the slit and store in the freezer ready for those busy mornings. If you have a bulk amount of ingredients you can also use cups or ice block moulds to create your frozen yoghurts sticks.
