10 Quick & Healthy Breakfast Ideas (Cookin Canuck)

Healthy breakfast ideas are a must for starting the day out right. And recipes are all easy to either quickly cook or grab and go on busy mornings.

If I had a dollar for every time my younger son suggested a box of donuts for breakfast, I could buy my own donut shop! Even though his teenaged metabolism could handle the extra calories with the greatest of ease, I also know that he’d be setting himself up for the classic sugar crash and burn later in the day.

Plus, I’m pretty sure teachers don’t have warm and fuzzy feelings for parents who send in kids all hopped up on sugar.

The funny thing is that my son is the “king of all egg makers” in our house. That boy can whip up any type of egg recipe – scrambled, poached, fried, coddled – without batting an eye. But on busy school mornings, there isn’t time for his egg mastery to shine, so we turn to healthy breakfast ideas that have make-ahead components or are super quick to pull together.

There’s a little bit of everything in here, from yogurt parfaits to make-ahead egg recipes to baked oatmeal to my favorite smoothie. We all need to bust out of our cereal and toast ruts once in awhile, and these easy breakfast recipes will help you do that!
