Breakfast on the go

You know the feeling – you are running out the door in the morning. You need to eat but time is short. Skip breakfast and by mid-morning you will be starving and more likely to reach for a quick sugar hit. Not good.

Breakfast really does set you up for a great day. Our busy lifestyles mean that brekky sometimes needs to be eaten on the go.

Check out these grab and go options – perfect for weekdays when time is not on your side!

Quick brekky ideas:

• Toasted sandwich
• Fruit tubs
• Yoghurt sachets
• Overnight oats (AKA bircher muesli) – soak rolled oats in water. Mix through yoghurt and grated apple. Top with chopped fruit or frozen berries. Portion out into single serves and keep in containers.
• Blitz a smoothie – start with fruit (frozen works well) and/or vegies, add rolled oats and milk or yoghurt. Take in the car or bus with you.
• Breakfast bites – dates, oats and seeds blitzed in a food processor and rolled into balls. These will keep for up to a week in the fridge. Grab a couple on your way out the door. Click here for our tasty recipe.
• Tetra pack of milk
• Piece of fruit – Mother Nature’s ultimate grab and go snack
