Healthier Breakfast Options For You and Your Family!
Breakfast on the go is very common - or even if you’re home breakfast in a hurry is common too. There's nothing wrong with something quick, but if we can try to be more careful in our choices, it could made a world of difference in the energy you bring to you day.
Here’s a video I watched that kinda had this idea to gather up some quick and healthy options. Bonus, if you use the same nutrition plan I use, Portion Fix, most of these have the measumrents listed for you in the link and I’ve also added them to the list for ease.

I LOVE breakfast so it’s hard for me to narrow down my favorites, and by NO means am I saying I’m perfect, but here’s 5 options, maybe try one or two next week and get back to me about what you tried and what you thought....

What do I feed my toddler? My child is picky, how do I get them to try new things? What do you feed your 2-3 year old? I get asked these questions often. As a health coach who shares on Instagram or Facebook all the healthy meals I'm eating, one would assume I just do the same meals or force our daughter to eat healthy 100% of the time too, right? Ehh sorta...
So here's how it really is in our house. My daughter has gone through a CHEESE ONLY phase where that's all she wanted - that was tough, but by just not having it in the house for her, she HAD to eat other foods.
