breakfast burritos are a favorite at my house!

We like breakfast cups. Line 12 muffin tins with pizza dough half fill with toppings (bacon, ham, peppers, zucchini, scrambled egg, tomato, etc), sprinkle with a little cheese, pour over a little bit of pasta or pizza sauce and bake for 20 minutes. I make them 24 at a time and freeze them.

Summer= cereal unless I get really ambitious and make waffles (w/ minin choc chips no syrup) or bagels some mornings, but they still want their cereal.
Winter we eat a lot of oatmeal (homemade, plain oats with some milk maybe a little honey for the older ones) and cream of wheat. Again, maybe waffles.
Breakfast needs to be simple. I have various drop off times and they want to eat when they get here. Grain + fruit + milk.

Breakfast is my favorite meal, so I try all sorts of things (although lately I've been a little more lazy). I try to have a carbohydrate, fruit or vegetable, and protein. I always serve milk with my meals. My only kryptonite is bacon. I usually don't feel like taking the time to make it or clean up the mess it makes, so I usually end up making turkey sausage. Here are my usual suspects:

1. Homemade belgium whole wheat waffles; served with turkey sausage and fresh fruit
2. Homemade whole wheat buttermilk pancakes (sometimes I add fresh blueberries to the batter); served with turkey sausage and fresh fruit
3. Fruit and yogurt parfait; made with Greek plain yogurt, granola with nuts and fresh berries
4. Smoothie; made with Greek plain yogurt, milk, ice, fresh strawberries and bananas and wheat germ
5. Homemade whole wheat french toast; served with turkey sausage and fresh fruit
6. Homemade pumpkin whole wheat pancakes; served with turkey sausage and fresh fruit
7. French toast casserole; made with whole wheat bread and fresh raspberries and served with turkey sausage
8. Hashbrown quiche casserole; made with pork sausage, an egg custard, hashbrown crust and served with fresh fruit
9. Scrambled eggs with cheese, buttered whole wheat toast and fresh fruit
10. Breakfast burrito; made with bacon, scrambled eggs, cheese, mild salsa and whole wheat tortilla; served with fresh fruit
11. Homemade crepes filled with strawberries and whipped cream; served with turkey sausage
12. Homemade muffins (usually blueberry, zucchini carrot, banana or apple cinnamon); served with turkey sausage and fresh fruit
13. Old fashioned oatmeal made with raisins
14. Cereal (I offer one choice: Multi-Grain Cheerios); served with fresh fruit

You should try baking the bacon in the oven on a broiler pan. I heard Rachael Ray say once that that's how restaurants make their bacon so all the pieces look the same. I tried it & I've never made it any other way since! The directions should be right on the back of the package. It's amazing. The bacon looks great, tastes great & it's super clean & easy! No greasy mess! Although on my food program I can't claim bacon as a protein...can you?

THIS!! Only not bagels with cream cheese, although I'd bet they'd like them!

Have tried fruit smoothies, but my kids don't care for them (go figure - they tasted nummy!) They also don't like breakfast burritos.

In addition I serve: baked eggs, eggs in a hole, peanut butter toast, baked french toast (I just break up bread, put in a casserole and pour the egg mixture over, sprinkle with cinnamon and bake. So easy and definitely a favorite around here!), homemade waffles. I don't make ahead too much, but do freeze ones not served for next time. I also make up a baking mix ahead of time (from Make a Mix Cookery) that is great for bicuits or pancakes or even a really good coffee cake! We get the coffee cake on special occasions.

I often make my syrup from fresh or frozen fruit instead of using store-bought syrup.

Love all the great suggestions!

I make a smoothie with ~1 cup vanilla yogurt, ~1cup fruit juice or vanilla coconut milk and about 1-2 cups of frozen fruit. I also sprinkle in flax meal, sometimes use spinach (blend it up with just the milk first, then add the rest of the ingreds.). I call it a milkshake or ice cream for breakfast (will serve it in a bowl with a spoon if it's too thick) and they buy the story and gobble it up. Strawberry and pineapple is a favorite combination, or strawberry blueberry.
