Energy Boosting Breakfast Foods
Granted, many of us would rather have an extra 15 minutes in bed than wake up and have a nutritious breakfast. But that nutritious breakfast is the most important of your day and will give you the energy and motivation to sail through your day with ease. Here are some energy boosting breakfasts that are worth so much more than those few extra minutes of hitting snooze.
Eggs
Whether that be Dippy Egg and Soldiers, or a poached egg on whole grain toast , eggs are completely versatile meaning they can be used in multiple ways! So you don’t need to worry about your breakfasts becoming repetitive. Eggs are also an excellent source of high quality protein as well as other vitamin D making them fantastic energy boosters in the morning.
Smoothies
If you’re looking for that energy boost but prefer something a little more sweet in the mornings, then a smoothie is for you! What’s great about a smoothie is that it can be different everyday and can be drank on the go. Use your favourite fruit and vegetables for a variety of nutrients, and combine with low-fat yogurt for protein. Peanut butter and flax seeds are also make great additions to a healthy, energy boosting smoothie.
Yogurt
The great things about yogurts is that it works with cereal, fruits, and oats. It’s a great way to add flavour to your regular breakfast bowl as well as an energy boosting amount of protein to get you up and moving! You can’t really go wrong with a low-fast natural yogurt and some fresh fruit.
Fruit and Nuts
Nuts, such as almonds, contain healthy fats and protein that help you power through your day and when mixed in with your regular breakfast, keep you feeling full ans satisfied until your next meal!
Oatmeal
The high levels of fiber in oatmeal is digested slower throughout the day and keeps you feeling fuller for longer! It’s also a great source of complex carbohydrates which gives you that much needed energy boost! Prepare with semi-skinned milk for protein and with fruit and nuts for more important nutrients to get you through your day.
