    My favorite breakfast for rushed mornings is a waffle sandwich. I usually toast a couple of waffles, slather them with nut butter, a bit of jam, and put them together. It’s quick and filling!

    If I know I have an early or rushed morning, I usually make overnight oats so most of the work is done for me in the morning. All I have to do is add the toppings and go! 😀

    my favorite quick breakfast is just a container of yogurt and a banana. Usually I mix them up with all sorts of other goodies, but even this works well in a pinch.
