For most people, mornings are so rushed that they’re lucky if they can find time to gulp down a Carnation Instant Breakfast shake. But every now and then, life surprises you with the gift of leisure. The following is a recipe for one of those rare mornings:
Waffles are so last year.
French Toast? Who’s that? It’s time to make room for the new kid in breakfast:
Pancake Roll Ups!

Above, Carrot Cake Pancake Roll Ups, filled with raisins and Healthy Cream Cheese Frosting, covered with carrots and more raisins and frosting.
Step One: Cook up your pancakes, a bit thinner than usual. In the photos, I used 24-Carrot Cake Pancakes.

Step Two: Top each pancake with lots of yum-licious ingredients

Step Three: Roll up the pancakes. Side note: I *heart* the cute strawberry plate from Pier One.

Step Four: Put more deliciousness on top!

Step Five: Devour your Pancake Roll Ups before other members in your house see them and beat you to it!















When I am pressed for time in the morning I always go for my staple of fruit and nut butter! Mmmm
my favorite instant breakfast is banana or overnight oats that i prepare the night before~
I will take a piece of bread (toast if the rushed second allows!) with some good ol’ peanut butter and jelly. Simple, classic, delicious.
On rushed mornings I thaw a couple of frozen waffles on the kitchen counter while I am in the shower, toast ’em up as I am packing my bag for work, and make a delish PB sammie that is o-so-portable!
Instant oatmeal. In a big mug. Unless it blows up, because then it’s not very “instant.”
Apple and PB. Perfect combo to eat on the run.
My favorite instant brekkie?
A brown rice protein and frozen banana shake… with almond milk.
YUM.
For even faster breakfast, a good old banana!
I love those darn things. 🙂
green smoothies with loads of peanut buttah! yummmeh.
My favorite quick breakfast is slices of break with a nut butter and any type of fruit on top with a little sugar or cinnamon! YUM!!
Favorite instant breakfast would be a bowl of cereal with fruit and nuts added on top.
My favourite instant breakfast would be Luna bars 🙂
My favorite quick breakfast is a toasted whole wheat english muffin spread with a nut butter, topped with banana slices, and sprinkled with cinnamon.
I don’t understand the “don’t have time for breakfast” thing either… I eat giant breakfast and still hungry for a mid morning snack + lunch + afternoon snack + dinner + late night snack. Fastest breakfast known to man: A whole wheat pita or tortilla, gobs o’ peanut butter and a banana or apple. perfect
Answer to the second question of the day (and shamelessly, in order to enter the draw…!) 🙂
No morning is ever too rushed for breakfast! When I had a general anaesthetic a while ago, I got up at 6am so I could have breakfast before the six-hour nil by mouth rule… (Then went back to bed.)
But if it was really late, I’d have an Eat Natural bar.
I don’t know if they sell them in America but they’re just whole nuts with dried fruit, a bit of puffed rice, nuts and a dark chocolate or creamy coating, or plain. Healthy and mmmmmmmm…
Mixed fruit ( strawberry banana blueberry ) cinnamon and agave, mmmmm mmmmm good! :+)
For super quick (and portable), I’ll grab a GNU Flavor & Fiber Espresso Chip bar and an apple. Otherwise, it is a bowl of cereal with almond milk – and that is pretty fast too, just not as portable!
Thanks for a great giveaway! 🙂
