What do your teen girls eat for breakfast?

What’s with the racist insults? Is there a particular race that especially like Sardines?

I get frozen acai bowls from Aldi. My kids like them better and as a bonus they are cheaper.

Oh shut up

Cereal with frozen blueberries and milk. Mug of green or black tea. Every single weekday morning!

She makes herself a bowl of Japanese soba noodles (not instant ramen), with sardines and little side pickles. Or my husband makes her an egg with toast. Or various other things, like yogurt with fruit. It's so nice that I don't have to worry about her.


Hopefully she’s brushing her teeth after that smelly meal!



It doesn't smell at all. She does brush her teeth. And you're so racist. You think your food doesn't smell?




Whoa, what do you mean racist? Sardines stink! They have a very fishy smell. Since when is it racist to point that out? I just wouldn’t be having that strong smell before school.


DP. I don't think you're racist, but I do think you must be narrow-minded. How big of a deal would it be to brush your teeth after eating them? Not a problem at all. Sardines are one of the healthiest foods AND they are one of the more environmentally friendly food choices. I would be so happy if my kid made choices as healthy as the PP's kid.

Our HS senior has never really liked or eaten breakfast. Doesn't like eggs, or pancakes, or bacon, will occasionally have a few bites of muffin or bagel, but seems to be into the big bulk store bag of (handheld, like McD's) hashbrowns I bought on coupon. I bake them for ten minutes in the air fryer and they're nice and hot. Just sprinkle a bit of salt. Kid devours one and rushes out the door. Spouse asked for a few and I've been having one with coffee myself. I'm glad I found something that finally works for breakfast with only a few weeks of high school left, lol.

My daughter tends to eat dinner leftovers for breakfast even when they aren’t breakfast foods. This morning she had leftovers from last night’s pesto chicken.

My entire family eats this most days for breakfast.

- Omelette with - eggs, cheddar cheese, mushrooms, zucchini, broccoli, spinach, peas, green pepper, green chilli, tomatoes and shallots. Served with a serving of spiced quinoa pilaf or spiced cooked oats + other grains. We sometimes switch to making pancakes with chickpea flour with all of the veggies and cheese etc, on days we are not eating non-vegetarian meals.

- Fruits - bananas, apples, blueberries or clementine - with or without peanut butter.

- Homemade yogurt with dates, soaked nuts (walnuts and almonds), and a tablespoon of powdered seeds (roasted flaxseed, melon seed, pumpkin seed, sunflower, hemp, chia seeds)

- 2 kinds of tea - Green tea with blackstrap molasses (to keep iron levels up). And ginger tea with fennel and turmeric to fight infections.

Eggo waffles with nutella or toast/bagel and cream cheese. It does the trick and she seems happy and full and isn't growing up with a complex about food choices.

I believe in taking care of myself, and a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack, I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower, I use a water activated gel cleanser. Then a honey almond body scrub. And on the face, an exfoliating gel scrub. Then apply an herb mint facial mask, which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an aftershave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm

Many cereals and bagels aren't sugary. It sounds like you're upset that other people don't have your eating disorder and aren't working to create your type of eating disorder in their daughters.

Kids need carbs. Teenagers, especially ones who are still growing or who are physically active, need a lot of carbs. In addition, when it comes to breakfast perfect is definitely the enemy of good. A kid who eats a bagel with cream cheese or a bowl of cheerios in the morning is going to be less likely to raid the vending machine, be distracted by hunger in the classroom, drop out of sports because of lack of exercise, or develop an unhealthy relationship with food.



My teenage daughter is an athlete and still growing. She needs a LOT of carbs. That said, some morning she only eats a banana. If we have fresh bagels in the house she will definitely have one. On weekends she will make herself a smoothie or acai bowl most mornings but on school days she is always running out the door.

Yeah, I'm shocked. All of this is very unhealthy.
