Waffles are so last year.

French Toast?  Who’s that? It’s time to make room for the new kid in breakfast:

    I’d have to go with a bar of some sort too, although I HATE rushing breakfast and always end up cranky that I missed my green monster that morning!

    i prep everything for a smoothie the night before so I just have to grab my blender, drop in a few ice cubes and give it a whirl, and run out the door!

    my favourite instant breakfast? that would have to be my pumpkin pie in a bowl, based off of your banana bread in a bowl recipe it is soo good. im making myself crave it right now… oh dear. anyways, i blend pure pumpkin, cereal flakes, my vegan protein powder, almond milk, stevia, and a ton of cinnamon all together in my magic bullet. oooh. so. good.

    My favourite instant breakfast is overnight oats! All the preparation is done the night before so you don’t have to do anything in the morning, just eat. I like to make mine with a mix of oats and buckwheat, chia seeds, almond milk, and half a mashed banana. Healthy and tastes great.

    My favourite instant breakfast (I just started trying it yesterday :)) are overnight oats! They are really nice and refreshing plus have protein from the (soy) yoghurt, healthy fat from added nut butters and, well, carbs from fruit & oats, obviously!

    I hate to say it but my fave ‘instant’ bfast is a hugeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee coffee from Starbucks! Don’t worry, I almost always eat bfast–this is just in a REAL pinch.
