Hello there! Let’s discuss healthy breakfast on the go. Are you a creature of habit like me? Then I’m guessing you’ve had the same thing for breakfast lately. Let’s switch it up! Here are 5 healthy breakfast ideas, with approximate calories and meal prep tips, to help you switch it up and stay efficient.
Meal Prep ping:
Now, most of us do not have a ton of time during the week. Therefore, you may consider batch cooking breakfasts that include eggs during a meal prep session. On Sunday, I cook egg whites with vegetables like spinach, red pepper, or onion. To keep track of calories, I measure and cook each serving of egg whites separately, then place each serving in its own container. From there, it’s an easy grab from the fridge!
Also, if you’re practicing intermitted fasting, you can still have breakfast food whenever you decide to break the fast! We’ve all had eggs for dinner before, right? I’m all about breakfast food, any time of the day.
