Breakfast First
It may arguably be the most important meal of the day. Studies suggest kids who eat breakfast:
- Tend to have healthier diets
- May have improved short-term memory
- Are more attentive
- Are more energetic in the morning
- May have fewer discipline problems
Make a nutritional breakfast with these quick ideas:
- Spread peanut butter on a warmed whole-wheat tortilla. Fill it with sliced bananas or apples.
- Toast a whole-wheat waffle. Spoon blueberries or strawberries over the top.
- Combine a favorite ready-to-eat whole-grain cereal with low-fat flavored yogurt instead of milk.
- Fill a whole-wheat pita bread pocket with scrambled eggs and salsa.
- Mix low-fat vanilla yogurt with a dash of cinnamon. Dip grapes, orange slices or kiwifruit slices
