Most likely causing a crash. And with that said...I'm not against having a dessert...not just for breakfast!

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.

- 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.

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.
