-stovetop oatmeal w/fruit & toast, microwaved breakfast sausage maybe
-cheesy scrambled eggs w/fruit & toast, microwaved breakfast sausage maybe
-toasted bagels w/cream cheese & fruit
-toaster waffles w/fruit & cottage cheese
-blueberry muffins (the big ones from Safeway), with fruit & cottage cheese

These are the five that I do each week but I mix them up a little bit so it isn't always the same thing on a Tuesday, for example.

I make a bunch of bacin, egg and cheese breakfast burritos on Sunday nights.

toast w/ pb

Do you like your sandwich maker? I'm sorely tempted, but my husband will complain it's just another one of my kitchen appliances taking up space in our small kitchen.

Microwaveable oatmeal. Can add PB, fruit, maple syrup, nuts, whatever.

cereal with milk and a banana

peanut butter sandwich on whole wheat toast

scrambled egg quesadillas

wholegrain toaster waffles

microwaved sausage patty on toasted english muffin (my kids like cheese on this, too)

Add vegetarian refried beans, and your kid can have some protein too.

Adding beans is good for fiber, too (although there is protein in the cheese and ww tortilla so the breakfast is fine as is, imo).

egg muffins made in advance and microwaved in the morning - http://allrecipes.com/recipe/222586/scrambled-egg-muffins/

Shakes- frozen bananas peanut butter milk ice and ground flax. Protein powder maybe.
Egg sausage and pepper muffins
Bran muffins with nut butter and jam
Microwave an egg with cheese and put it on a while wheat English muffin with salsa
Breakfast burritos
Overnight oats, or just regular whole oats

Spread some grated cheese (usually cheddar or jack) on a whole wheat tortilla. Microwave for 30 seconds and then roll up. I like the Whole Foods whole wheat tortillas.

Fruit, yogurt, granola parfait
Peanut butter or avocado toast
Overnight oatmeal (or keep a big batch in the fridge). I like peanut butter and banana oatmeal personally

Muffins are good for this. Love morning glory muffins, which seem healthy (we make some with apples, apple butter, carrots, etc). But we also make peanut butter/banana/choc chip, which are filling.

My kids are tweens and teens and can get breakfast themselves, but we usually don't have time for a sit-down breakfast. What are some ideas for five-minute breakfasts (and options for items that we can eat in the car)?

Thanks!!
