Avocado Toast
Avocado toast has become increasingly popular among adults due to its health benefits and simplicity. But did you know that kids can also fall in love with this trendy breakfast? Toast whole-grain bread slices and spread mashed avocado on top. You can also add some scrambled eggs or cheese for added protein.
French Toast
My children have never said “no”to French toast, even now in their older years. I made this particular one with heavy cream (and even sugar), instead of the savory milk variety. I’d characterize it as “sweet and savory”. It was delicious.
Cheese & Tomato On Toast
This is my “go to”when I crave pizza, and a good way to hide those veggies from the little ones. Find the cheese and tomato on toast recipe here.
Smoothie Bowls
Smoothie bowls are not only visually appealing but also packed with nutrients that kids need to start their day off right. Blend together frozen fruits like berries or bananas with milk or yogurt until smooth. Pour into a bowl and top with granola, nuts, seeds, or fresh fruit for added texture and flavor.
Breakfast Quesadillas
Quesadillas make a perfect savory breakfast option that kids will love! Fill flour tortillas with scrambled eggs, cheese, vegetables such as spinach or bell peppers, then fold over and cook on both sides until crispy.
Get Creative With Pancakes
Pancakes may seem time-consuming to make from scratch every morning but try experimenting with different flavors like banana pancakes or chocolate chip pancakes to make them more interesting. I’ve experimented with oatmeal based panacakes in the past, they are just as yummy! You can also make a big batch on the weekend and freeze them for a quick breakfast during the week.
Frittatas
Frittatas are an excellent way to incorporate vegetables into your child’s breakfast. Simply whisk together eggs, milk, cheese, and any desired vegetables like spinach, mushrooms, or tomatoes in a pan then bake until golden brown. These are quite versatile too and work just fine as even lunch or dinner.

Breakfast burritos are not only quick to make but also portable if you need to eat on-the-go. Scramble eggs with your choice of vegetables such as bell peppers, onions, spinach or mushrooms. Add shredded cheese and wrap in a whole wheat tortilla. You can also make these ahead of time and freeze them for even quicker preparation.

Smoothies are not only delicious but also packed with nutrients making them an ideal breakfast option. Blend together frozen fruit, Greek yogurt, milk (or almond milk), spinach or kale and your choice of protein powder for a quick and nutritious meal on-the-go.
With these quick and tasty breakfast ideas, you no longer have to sacrifice starting your day off right due to lack of time. Planning ahead and utilizing simple ingredients can make all the difference in enjoying a satisfying and healthy breakfast every morning.

Savory Omelette Muffins
Omelettes are another classic breakfast dish that can easily be given an exciting twist by turning them into savory muffins.
