An ideal, nutritious breakfast contains a balance of complex carbohydrates and protein. Think grains, plus dairy, plus fruits. Examples of balanced breakfasts are:
- granola cereal, yogurt, a sliced apple
- scrambled eggs, toast, orange juice
- veggie omelet, bran muffin, fruit with yogurt
- whole-grain pancakes or waffles topped with berries and/or yogurt, milk
- whole-wheat zucchini pancakes topped with fruit, milk
- french toast topped with fruit, orange juice or milk
- low-fat cheese melted on toast with a piece of fruit
- low-fat cream cheese on a whole-grain bagel, orange juice
- peanut butter and banana slices on an english muffin, milk
- For a breakfast-on-the-run smoothie, see "School-Ade."
