2. Tropical Acai Bowl
Taste the rainbow! This good-for-you breakfast is a blended, spoonable smoothie of nutrient-dense acai berries makes the perfect palette for all manner of vibrant toppings, from fresh fruit to shredded coconut to nuts and seeds of all sorts.
3. Spinach and Shallot Egg Clouds
Egg whites and vegetables are the star of this hearty breakfast dish. The whites get whipped into an ethereal, cloud-like meringue, which acts as a fluffy cup for holding quickly sautéed spinach and sweet shallots.
4. Cinnamon Strawberry Smoothie
How sweet it is! This rosy smoothie will put a smile on your face and satisfy your stomach, thanks to honey and cinnamon-spiked strawberries and bananas, blended with nonfat vanilla Greek-style yogurt.
5. Avocado Ricotta Toast with Poached Eggs
Avocado toast has emerged as one of the most popular good-for-you breakfast recipes. And while you can certainly keep things simple, we’ve chosen to take the trendy dish to the next level – by lightening the avocado mash with clouds of ricotta, and adding freshness and crunch with sliced radishes and spring mix.
6. Overnight Vanilla Cinnamon Chia Pudding
One of our favorite feel-good breakfast ideas is to swap overnight oats for overnight chia pudding! The vitamin-rich seeds plump up in coconut milk, to make a creamy and dreamy breakfast treat that only tastes indulgent.
7. Mini Vegetable Frittatas
Rather than make one large frittata on top of the stove, bake individual ones in a muffin tin. Full of colorful veggies, Cheddar and goat cheeses, and savory Italian Seasoning, these mini frittatas are a tasty solution for busy mornings.
8. Cinnamon Almond Energy Bars
Easy to stash in your bag for a quick breakfast or mid-morning pick-me-up, these homemade energy bars hit the spot. Made with six simple ingredients, the sweet, warm taste of Cinnamon Sugar combined with oats and almonds makes for a filling, power-packed breakfast.
9. Shakshuka with Hearty Greens
One pan meals save precious time in the kitchen, but they don’t have to skimp on flavor! Enjoyed with crusty bread and a sprinkle of feta on top, this comforting shakshuka – essentially eggs poached in a skillet with tomato sauce – can be made a hundred different ways. Our take on the popular Middle Eastern dish stars the robust flavor of McCormick spices, chickpeas, and hearty kale greens for a dish that’s equal parts memorable and easy to prepare.
10. Very Vanilla Fruit Salad
This fresh and fruity breakfast couldn’t be simpler – but you’ll be surprised how much the addition of pure vanilla extract elevates your everyday fruit salad.
