What are your kids having for breakfast?

[eggybreadyy]

Please give me some inspo for quick breakfasts?

kid friendly
quick and easy to make
relatively healthy as to not start the day on a sugar rush

Porridge with blueberries and banana mashed in
Cinnamon porridge with ground flaxseed
Sourdough, peanut butter and jam

Youngest will sometimes have plain greek yoghurt.

Scrambled egg on toast

My two like peanut butter and banana wraps. Spread a wholemeal wrap with peanut butter, mash half a banana onto each wrap with a fork, roll up and slice into pinwheels. Takes no time and fills them up with something nutritionally decent before school.

Fav is: leftovers from dinner the night before.

Or

stir fried veg lentils and tinned fish
poached eggs on toast with spinach.
porridge with fruit
greek yoghurt fruit compote and granola (smashed nature valley bar)

Pancakes, bacon and maple syrup today but that’s a holiday breakfast for us. School days it’s porridge with frozen (defrosted) fruit, yoghurt fruit and granola or peanut butter and banana muffins made the night before.

Porridge with banana and cinnamon
Fresh Berries with Greek yogurt

Eggy bread/French toast
Cheese omelette

She had a peanut butter, date and banana smoothie, toast with butter and a handful of strawberries today.

Omelettes.

Homemade granola (weighed out porridge oats combined with 1tsp each of honey, peanut butter & vanilla essence, combined & cooked in air fryer at 180 for 5 mins) atop Greek yoghurt with fresh fruit.

Egg whites, lean bacon medallions on sourdough.

All the kinds of cereal we have in the house, mixed together, with whole milk.

Coco pops

DD coco pops
DS 4 slices of toast with brussels pate

School days:
Weetabix with milk
Porridge with a swirl of honey
Granary toast with butter or jam
Cereal occasionally (he doesn’t like cereal but every few months will decide to try it and eat 2 spoons before remembering he doesn’t like it)

Weekends/holidays:
Dippy Egg with soldiers
Hard Boiled eggs
Pancakes with fruit and nutella

Porridge with berries on weekdays and cereal on weekends (cornflakes for one, alphabites for another and mini shredded wheat for the 3rd 🙄)

Special occasions - so birthdays and Christmas - I let them have chocolate brioche or Nutella on toast etc.

They have plenty of junk so I at least try to start the day healthy.

A lot of what is mentioned here for breakfast is what I'd serve for lunch (omelette / scrambled egg / avo on toast)

This one made me smile, that's two very different kids!

Mine like porridge and berries or crumpets, or peanut butter wrap and apple slices.

Smoothies - frozen fruit, banana blitzed with Greek yoghurt, oat bran and protein powder and milk

potato waffles and beans
hot cross buns, crumpets, toast
Avacado on toast
cheerios
scrambled eggs and beans

Porridge is a favourite at the moment with the younger sec (3), with a variety of mix ins. Cinnamon and banana is a winner.

scrambled eggs on avo sourdough with eldest dc (13).

DD - Frube, cheese cubes and a cup of tea. (ASD with very limited diet)

DS - Greek yoghurt, fruit, and nuts, or a muffin and banana. On a Sunday he has bacon sandwiches.

I like those egg cup things with veg that you cook in a muffin tin. Really quick and easy and you can add whatever you want to the mix. They last a few days too.

Oat, banana and coconut oil flapjacks. Just mix a cup of oats with two bananas a a couple of tablespoons of melted coconut oil, roll into biscuit shapes on greaseproof paper and bake for 14 minutes

banana pancakes- just banana and egg mixed together and fried

Scrambled egg on toast.
bacon sandwiches.
fibre bars, weetabix, pitch bars or cereal usually on a school day.

DD is 2 and starts the morning with a banana then has cereal and toast and may also have scrambled eggs and grapes wirh DH and I. Sometimes augmented with crackers.

Remember what Liz in motherland said - don't ask your kids what they want - just stick it in front of them! 😆

Fruit and yogurt followed by a bowl of cereal. Hungry 12 year old boy!

Porridge, toast, sometimes lasagne.

Protein yogurt and protein granola with fruit bits. If I wrote “protein” on the dog’s forehead he’d probably eat him too. We’re going through a protein heavy phase.😅

In a sort of rotation, 5yo DD has;

Omelette or dippy egg with buttered toast
Porridge
Pasta and pesto (occasionally)
Plain yoghurt and berries
