Breakfast is called the most important meal of the day. According to a
survey research, 93% of Americans agree with this idea but unfortunately fewer
than half (44%) actually eat or get to eat the breakfast! Reasons for skipping
breakfast vary but the most common reasons given are a lack of time or
appetite.
A great deal of research supports the importance of breakfast and shows
that breakfast eaters:
- Are likely to have a lower body weight.
- Eat more “nutrient-dense” foods and food groups such as dairy, fruits and vegetables, as well as whole grains.
- Have higher intakes of vitamin D, potassium, calcium, and fiber.
- Are more alert, impacting both school and work performance.
With all these great reasons to eat breakfast, it seems like everyone
would try to eat breakfast on most days. Since time is one of the primary
reasons for skipping breakfast, here are some quick ways to include a fast,
nutritious breakfast in your morning, even during the most busiest days of your
week:
- Take a few of your favorite cereals and make a breakfast mix of your own creation: add some dried fruit, almonds or walnuts for an even greater nutritional punch. Add milk or put into a go-cup and eat as a trail mix on your way – or even at – work or school.
- Make your own whole-grain peanut butter crackers for munching on your way to work or school.
- Have 100% juice boxes, milk boxes, or drinkable yogurts in the fridge and ready to grab.
- Breakfast can be leftovers from last night’s dinner: pasta, pizza, cold chicken will all work.
- Spread a peeled, sliced banana with nut butter and wrap in a tortilla warmed in the microwave for a tasty, nutritious way to wake up.
- Keep some higher protein breakfast bars on hand. Pair with a piece of fruit and low-fat or skim milk for some speedy nutrition.
- Spread a pita with peanut butter and jelly or honey – easy to eat while on the go.
- Make a smoothie the night before with fresh fruit and yogurt. Pour into glasses and put in the refrigerator. The next morning top the smoothies with some granola for a quick parfait.
