I am assuming that most plan to eat the cheap\u00a0 cereal for months on in. However that just would not happen in this house. I LOVE breakfast, it is probably\u00a0 my favorite meal. Now that school is back in session, it is hard to eat a quick and healthy breakfast that does not cost a lot. Over the past few weeks we have developed a list of breakfast items that seem to be working for us.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cereal at least once a week, currently we have several varieties of Cheerios. My price point is $1 a box so I try to stock up when I can.<\/li>\n<li>Poptarts- depending on the flavor we have, some weeks the kids could eat this several times a week. But I can definitely say these are one of the foods I refuse to eat.<\/li>\n<li>Eggs- Fried or scrambled.\u00a0 Over the summer it has been really\u00a0 nice to add fresh green peppers, ham and onions to make a quick omelet. The kids are starting to enjoy plain fried eggs which take less than 3 minutes to fix.\u00a0 Last week I was given the following recipe which I plan to make over the weekend and we can re-heat at least one time if it last. I\u00a0 made it last weekend but we did not have any leftovers.\n<ul>\n<ul>\n<li>10 eggs whisk together, 2 cups of cottage cheese, diced onions, diced green pepper and spinach. Bake at 350 for\u00a0 45 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Pancakes- These are a great meal that we can prepare ahead. I place in a ziplock bag and simply pop in the toaster any morning when the kids ask for them.<\/li>\n<li>Baked Oatmeal- our current favorite is Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chips. The recipe can be found here :<a href=\"http:\/\/www.lynnskitchenadventures.com\/2009\/05\/peanut-butter-baked-oatmeal.html\">http:\/\/www.lynnskitchenadventures.com\/2009\/05\/peanut-butter-baked-oatmeal.html<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0 I timed this last night and it took 10 minutes from start to finish. I set the stove to cook and we wake up to a warm breakfast. I also have tried apple oatmeal in the crock pot not bad but with all the variety and ease of this recipe, honestly this is better and easier!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On the weekends we tend to make bigger more traditional breakfast meals but these are quick and everyone enjoys!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the areas that few people talk about is breakfast meals.
