Grab N' Go Breakfast Ideas

((This blog contains affiliate links to another website))

Sometimes I catch myself falling into a rut when it comes to breakfast....er...ALL meals. Before I know it - we are eating eggs every day for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch, and by the time supper rolls around - nothing is planned - and we tend to eat out or throw a pizza in the oven. I've been trying to be more intentional about using the food and produce that I have on hand at home - before we blow our budget and waist line and go out to eat!

Here are some of my favorite breakfast ideas that may take a small prep- but all end up being simple grab-and-go meals that the whole family (yes, toddlers and husbands too) will enjoy!

Breakfast Ideas

Fruit - so simple. so delicious. Berries, bananas, melons, oranges.....be creative! 

Fruit and Yogurt Parfait - we love dairy free yogurt! I usually add 1/2 cup yogurt into a bowl, toss blueberries and strawberries in, and add coconut flakes, honey or maple syrup, hemp seeds, and whatever else I am feeling at that moment!

Gluten Free/Dairy Free

(In a pinch)
We probably have these once a month if we have somewhere to be in the morning, someone slept in, etc. - and there isn't time to eat/make a proper breakfast. Great to have on hand! 

Larabars- these are our favorite kind
RX Bars- chocolate coffee flavor...I mean....COME ON! Yum!



Toast with almond butter
Protein shake/smoothie (Garden of Life is my favorite brand)

Eggs - oh the possibilities! Scrambled, fried, hard-boiled in the Instant Pot..

Egg Bake - we generally don't follow a recipe. I just chop up whatever veggies I want and mix them with eggs and coconut or almond milk...add cheese if you wish! You can make portion sized servings by placing them in greased muffin tins, or bake in a pan or cast iron. Either way - these store so well in the fridge or freezer!


Potato/Sweet Potato Hash - Chop potatoes. Add veggies. Throw in a pan and cook! 
Pancakes! I really like this one. I mix it all together and throw it in my cast iron pan in the oven at 400 degrees for 20 mins or so. Easy peasy. Stores well in the fridge or freezer! 


Muffins. This one has been our favorite lately. Again, these can easily be stored in the freezer! Turn the oven on in the morning, take them out and place on a pan while you get ready and wait for them to warm up!

Hoping this gives you a few ideas to put some excitement back in your breakfast!

Gut Healing Soup (That ACTUALLY Tastes Delicious)

Image
If you're anything like me, you maybe struggle from time to time to find FAST, EASY, NOURISHING recipes that the whole family will enjoy. Personally - I can eat something that doesn't taste that great if I know it has nutritional benefits. My toddler and husband? Not so much.. This recipe, however, was SO fast and easy - and the entire family scarfed it down. 16 month old, AND husband. I will list how to make this recipe step by step, and attach a link to everything I purchased. All you have to do is click the links, and it will bring you right there so that you can check it out for yourself! I mostly followed Dr. Axe's recipe from his book,  Bone Broth Breakthrough . I highly recommend this book. He mentions the healing powers of bone broth, TONS of recipes to make, as well as a few nutritional guides and challenges to try out! Definitely worth the money. I cooked this recipe in my  Instant Pot . If you don't have one yet - you quite honestly NEED one...

Every New Beginning

Every New Beginning Comes From Some Other Beginning's End I always have good intentions of keeping up with my blog but life gets the best of me. Its January 1st, 2018, and it's a Monday - so I'm telling myself there's  no better time to hop back on the horse than right now! Naturally, I'm not sure where to start or what I Want to write about for this blog, so it will likely be my jumbled thoughts about life, and maybe a slight update from the past year - so that I can read it again in the future. Essentially- this post if for myself, but if you find yourself reading it - I hope you enjoy! It's -20 degrees out, maybe worse then that - I stopped looking. Every year at this time of year my husband and I contemplate moving to a warmer climate. Staying indoors with a toddler is NOT ideal! Today, Ezra looking outside and said "Want to play digger in snowman" (he calls the "snow" "snowman" ....I haven't corrected him because it...
