My Favorite On-the-Go Breakfasts

If you are anything like me, then you are probably always in a rush to get out of the door on time every morning. no matter how early I get up in the morning, I never have time for breakfast, I am always in a rush. In the rush, you may forget the most important meal of the day, breakfast. If you skip breakfast, than you are missing out on many of its health benefits. This is why even if you are prone to running late, and you don't have time for a sit down breakfast, then you need to have a back up plan for when and where you are going to fit in your breakfast.
The great thing about breakfast is that it doesn't have to be much; it just has to be a little something that gets your metabolism moving in the morning. Keeping grab and go foods in your house can be super helpful. Anything from a banana or apple to a granola bar or an apple sauce cup. All of these items can be eaten on your way to school or work or right when you get there. They take little time to eat and will hold you over until lunch time.
Another thing that you could try is getting something ready the night before. You may not have time to stir together a smoothie in the morning (and if you do then you must really have your life together and I applaud you), but you do have time at night before you go to bed. Throw some fruit, yogurt and ice into a blender, then throw it into the fridge. In the morning you can drink it down while you are getting ready. You could also put some cereal into a bag if you are allowed to eat at your first hour class or at work. Sometimes I put some Honey Nut Cheerios into a baggie and put it into my backpack at night, that way, it is one less thing to worry about in the morning and I can have my breakfast when I get to school.
I am forced to live by both of these strategies because I am a perpetually late person every day of my life. Do what works best for you; as long as that means that you are eating breakfast instead of skipping it. Remember that it doesn't have to be anything big, just a little something to give you some energy for the start of your day.
