Healthy Quick Breakfasts

Posted by admin | Recipes | Saturday 12 November 2005 4:21 am

It’s firmly believed now that people who eat breakfast think better and faster, remember more and are mentally sharper than breakfast skippers.

  • Think outside the breadbox…
  • Cheese-lovers, top an English Muffin with a slice of your favourite cheese, add a slice of ham or bacon and toast open-faced under the broiler until the cheese starts to melt. Gooey and good!
  • Gourmet on the go. Package one or two Fresh Waffles in plastic sandwich bags and your favourite fruit topping in a reusable sealed container. Toast the waffle once you get to work, top it off with your assortment of fruit and enjoy decadence at your desk. Add a spoonful of fruit yogurt for pure perfection
  • Poached or scrambled eggs take just 15 seconds in the microwave and make the perfect partner to an English Muffin.
  • Brie? Mais oui! Add sliced pears and Brie cheese to a toasted Fresh Waffle for an alternative to syrup.
  • Microwave sliced apples with brown sugar and a dab of butter until warm. Serve over a hot fresh waffle.
  • Pizza for breakfast! Who says you should only eat it at lunch? Top an Bread Roll with tomato sauce and all of your favourite toppings or left-overs even for a quick, easy and nutritious mini-meal
  • Try this…
