What do your teen girls eat for breakfast?

Looking for suggestions for school week breakfasts. Thanks!

Best case a smoothie, protein bar, or yogurt drink. Often some breakfast pastry, cereal, or pop tart. Our teen girls are at their worst at 7 am and we don't argue about food then.

Same. Homemade smoothie, yogurt and fruit, cereal, bagel, toast and fruit, or just a protein bar. Mine always eats something because she has a very late lunch, but I have zero interest in picking those battles.

I recently got her into the Kodiak protein waffles. Quick and easy and gives her a little fuel for the day. I also got these frozen acai bowls at costco she liked but I haven't seen them recently. She will occasionally make a smoothie if she has the time.

Avocado toast. Leftovers from dinner night before. Yogurt.

Bacon, egg and cheese mini bagel. Sausage, hashbrowns and scrambled eggs. Mini bagel with cream cheese and strawberries. Mini bagel with Nutella and banana. Smoothie.

I am up and always willing to cook. Sometimes she wants eggs, sometimes a frozen sausage patty, sometimes a frozen waffle. Sometimes it’s just some cut up fruit and milk or a piece of toast. Sometimes it’s leftovers from dinner. Sometimes nothing. She is 16 and I don’t micromanage what she eats.

Bowl of cereal

Bagel with a hard boiled egg during the week. I make this for them, because they are not reasonable until after they eat. I don't know how they aren't bored, lol, but it's easy.

acai bowl, eggs, cereal or whatever they can scrounge/make on the weekends. Sometimes they work together to make something really fancy, other times they just complain about the lack of interesting food until lunch time

Avo toast, a smoothie or a protein waffle.

Honestly, this is a battle we need to stop. Sometimes nothing, maybe a banana and a bowl of cereal. She's just not a morning eater (will house food later in the day).

Two boiled eggs, whites only. She gets super foul if her blood sugar drops during the day so she always starts with the eggs.

+1 to 9:53. I’m all for modeling healthy behaviors and letting teens work on some of this themselves.
My 15YO has started meal prepping her breakfasts maybe 40-50% of the time bc she can tell how much better she feels with a good protein rich breakfast. And doesn’t want to wake up earlier each morning LOL. 100% her own idea and she just adds any ingredients to the family grocery list.
Otherwise: fruit smoothie, protein bar, sometimes just a banana. My kids are both big fans of leftover for breakfast also.

Bagel and cream cheese, berries, a matcha latte from a Trader Joe’s mix for one. Eggo waffles or cereal for the other.

My 17 yo DD tries to eat healthily. She often has overnight oats with plain yogurt and berries with a bit of granola on top. She usually uses the high protein granola or similar cereal and will often add a turkey sausage link. Sometimes she'll have a plain rice cake with peanut butter and a banana. If she wakes up late or isn't hungry, then she'll grab a protein bar and take it to school with her. She makes her own breakfast, though, and I don't force her to eat anything.
