5个小窍门帮你吃到好早餐

 

Oatmeal doesn't have to be served warm. Cook, then chill individual portions, and stash¹（存放） them in the fridge in small containers you can grab, along with a spoon, on your way out the door.

 

Just mix a protein powder (like pea, hemp², or organic whey) into rolled oats, add hot water, stir, fold in fresh fruit, cinnamon（肉桂）, and nuts, and chill. Or skip the protein powder, and mix the oats, fruit, cinnamon, and nuts into nonfat organic Greek yogurt, and chill to make a grab-n-go mueslix.

 

 

Many of my clients enjoy omelets on the weekends, but feel like an egg-based breakfast takes too much time during the week.

 

For a make-ahead option, prep hard boiled organic eggs on a Sunday for the upcoming week. While you're making dinner, take a few extra minutes to whip up a simple egg salad for breakfast the next morning. Mix chopped egg with either guacamole or pesto, diced³ or shredded⁴ veggies, and a small scoop⁵ of cooked, chilled quinoa（藜麦） or brown rice. Grab a portion with a fork in the a.m., and you're good to go.

 

It may seem odd to chow down（吃饭） on a garden salad topped with lentils（扁豆） or salmon⁶ at 8 am, but who says breakfast meals have to look different than lunch or dinner?

 

Many of my clients make double portions in the evening, and eat seconds for breakfast the next day. Give it a try – you may just find that warmed up stir fry, veggie "pasta," or a crisp entrée salad is your new favorite way to start the day.

 

 

Smoothies are pretty fast, but I know that when you're running late, just tossing ingredients into a blender and pressing a button can require more time than you can spare.

 

If that tends to be the case, blend up a smoothie just before bed, stash it in a sealed to-go jug⁷ in the fridge, grab it on your way out the door, and shake it up before sipping⁸.

 

 

It's perfectly⁹ OK to cobble together a breakfast from an assortment¹⁰ of snack foods, including veggies with hummus and whole grain crackers¹¹, or trail mix made from nuts or seeds, unsweetened preservative-free dried fruit, and a whole grain cereal you can eat with your hands.

 

Bon (breakfast) appetit!
