Breakfast ideas for stroppy DD...

[SilverLining]

Please help me coming across as the wicked witch of the west - DD (nearly 12) refuses to eat breakfast unless its sugary, fatty and generally v bad for her! AND then moans she is hungry at school!

We've talked about balanced diets etc and she is smart enough to know what she should be eating but won't! Doesn't like any porridge/Weetabix type cereals - thinks coco pops is a valid choice (!), won't eat toast/granary/brown bread in any form - at a push will have a bagel but its v begrudgenly...

Running out of ideas - is a smoothie type thing a valid option to offer her?? This morning after much huffing and puffing she had a banana and a yoghurt tube - but it was a real battle!

I'm really struggling and trying to teach her about making the right choices but right now am failing...

Mumsnet please let me have some ideas I can present to her later and make both our mornings a bit smoother...!

Can you persuade her to eat 50/50 bread - it tastes just like white and has a bit more fibre/wholegrain in it.My dc's like Buckwheat pancakes with maple syrup and sometimes blueberries or bacon.If you whip the egg white up separately and fold in at the end they are pretty light.I would be inclined to just stop arguing with her as well they can be totally unreasonable at that age (14 year old dd here).Fruit and a breakfast biscuit can be a perfectly OK choice as well.

Thanks everyone - some brilliant ideas! And I totally get letting her eat what she wants too - to some degree!

Will work my way through your suggestions - feel like a cafe!!
But a big thanks for all taking the effort to reply!
