the breakfast squeeze: win $100 visa card




This is sponsored content by BlogHer and Kelloggs.


okay so i have to admit.
i eat breakfast.
every morning.
and because it's the school year already over here, we try to eat a well-balanced breakfast every single morning.
yes, it's hard but we do it.

every once in a while my walk goes over in time in the morning (most likely because i'm dragging) and i start the morning routine a few minutes behind schedule...and because i am who i am, i most likely will choose a breakfast that takes a little longer than normal case in point: waffles in the waffle iron. not because i mean to but just because i do stupid things like that sometimes. we have to get scriptures in there and we have to make sure boys are properly groomed...so yeah sometimes i don't get to sit down in time before we have to get a move on to the next thing.

those days i normally eat a yogurt (and a diet coke!) and i throw a handful of granola for the extra calories and to tie me over till i can get something a little more "meaty" something or other for lunch.

now it's your turn.
tell me for a chance to win $100 visa card from kelloggs and blogher:

  10. If I seriously don't have time I try to grab something with protein like a cheese stick or a handful or almonds. But most of the time I eat my cracklin' oat bran. That stuff is the best!

  11. I'll eat a piece of fruit ... or last night's leftover dessert!

    ReplyDelete
  12. I'm cereal all the way! Sometimes if I'm running late I'll take some dry cereal to snack on at work.

    ReplyDelete
  13. When I run out of time in the morning I do the drive through for breakfast. McDonald's sausage biscuit with egg is a fave! I MUST have breakfast!

    ReplyDelete
  14. I eat a Nutri-Grain bar every morning! Strawberry!

    ReplyDelete
  15. I grab a banana to eat on my commute or dive into my stash in the desk drawer (granola bars and peanuts) if I don't manage to eat before I get to work.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Handful of almond and a string cheese until I can get something else more substantial!

    ReplyDelete
  17. I grab a Luna bar on those mornings because they're really filling, have only 180 calories, and come in tasty flavors. The only reason I don't eat one every day is because of the $1 price tag. That adds up more than a box of cereal and some milk.

    ReplyDelete
  18. If I am in a hurry my breakfast consists of anything sitting on the counter closest to me. Fruit, granola bar, or those cupcakes, brownies and cookies. Haha.

  31. I keep a bag of granola at my desk at work and I will bring greek yogurt and blueberries from home for days like that! I also make baked oatmeal at the first of the week & then just warm it up when I need it.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Let's try this again: My favorite breakfast is a slice of multi-grain toast (usually Fiber One), spread with a low fat peanut butter, and totally covered with banana slices. Keeps me full until lunch. My 6 yr old daughter loves those little microwavable cans of Campbell's soups for breakfast, that you drink from the can. :)

  38. I love to eat cereal from a cup with a cup of milk or a cereal bar. I find I can't think straight w/o breakfast, or is that my excuse? Who am I kidding, I have kids, I can never think straight!

    ReplyDelete
  39. I almost never miss a day of eating a nice cold bowl of cereal for breakfast!

    ReplyDelete
  40. I'm boring because I eat almost the same breakfast every day -- low fat cottage cheese mixed with a high fiber cereal or granola and a sliced up banana. It's the perfect blend of protein, fiber, and a little fat to make sure the nutrients are all absorbed, and it keeps me full for hours =)

    ReplyDelete

  59. My kids are HUGE breakfast eaters...it's a MUST in the morning! And cereal does NOT cut it in our house. However, I have 3 kids under 4 and a husband to get out the door - so I rarely get to sit down to a breakfast. I usually make waffles for my 3 and 2 year old, some cheerios on the table for my 9 month old and some eggs for my husband. Meanwhile, I make myself some peanut butter or cinnamon toast and "snack" off everyone else's plates :)

  80. I like to have cut up fruit in greek yogurt with a few almonds or pecans on the top or applesauce and cottage cheese with nuts on top.

    ReplyDelete
  81. I like mixing in some walnuts with my blueberry greek yogurt. The extra protein from the walnuts really helps boost the protein that's already in the yogurt and it's nice to have something to crunch. I just stick the walnuts right into the container so it's definitely handy for on-the-go breakfast.

  110. OH baby I HAVE to have breakfast or I'm starving all day long. At least that is what it feels like! HA! If I don't have time I'll grab anything to hold me over until the boys leave the door. Lately that means grabbing some of the baby's snack: nilla wafers, graham crackers, toast... When I have time to make my turkey bacon with one egg on a piece of wheat toast the world can resume spinning.

  129. Sit down breakfasts are Daddy's treat on the weekend-he cooks for all of us. My go-to breakfast of choice is yogurt, a banana, and a HUGE glass of water.

    ReplyDelete
  130. A nice sit-down breakfast is rare around here-- although we could have it, we just don't. I usually go for Pop Tarts, cereal bars or PB&J or some other "breakfast-y" sandwich.

  133. I'm also guilty of grabbing a yogurt in the mornings. Or, a slice of toast with a bit of apricot jam and a glass of milk.

    ReplyDelete
  134. My stomach is the very last part of me to wake up in the morning so I don't like breakfast until 9 or so. Yea, yea, I know it's the most important meal of the day, but what's a girl to do? For me, I grab a tall glass and fill it up with Simply Orange and that seems to be enough to hold me over til lunch.

  136. I very rarely sit down with my kids for breakfast. They normally eat before I do and they have toast or cereal. If it's a really rushed day, they will have dry cereal on the go.

  139. I always try to eat breakfast or else I get grumpy!!! My solution is those little paper cups - bigger than bathroom cups, but not a Solo size cup. I fill it will cereal (which is about a serving, by the way) and eat it while I'm driving my preschooler to school. And of course I have my coffee - can't function without that!

  143. I really like the combo of crunch granola bar and an apple. Kind of like apple crisp!

  144. I have a 2 month old baby so I rarely sit down for breakfast! Morning routine: baby goes in swing. I scarf down whatever I can. Pick baby back up before he starts to cry (he's not a big fan of the swing). Usually breakfast is fruit or a granola bar.

  145. Coffee (a MUST at my house!) & a banana...what I like even better is to have already made a baked oatmeal & I can just warm it up lickety split. Let's just say that it doesn't happen often enough! :)

  146. If I can't sit down for breakfast I'll grab some energy bar, but it's not the same and if it happens I'm usually hungry all day long.

  149. Smoothies are my thing; I add granola to the yogurt/fruit/milk mix to give it staying power till lunch.

  150. Granola bars do the trick in our house!

  151. I'm not a big breakfast person. I usually eat a peach or a banana in the morning and have a glass of chocolate milk. But your yogurt and granola in the photo are looking mighty good to me right now...

  152. Granola bars are a Godsend, and also I love Carnation instant breakfast- a milkshake in the morning!

  153. Growing up I was never a breakfast eater, but as I have grown older, and wiser I know how important breakfast is. Despite my lack of being a good role model, both of my children are breakfast eaters, my son eats cereal even if we are offering other options. My daughter is a yogurt and granola lover and that is what I eat now too - though I have switched to Greek yogurt, I seem to get more bang for my buck with the Greek yogurt, but it's an acquired taste.

  154. When we're in a hurry, we grab a bag of homemade granola to munch on in the car.

  155. I am a big breakfast person, but on extra busy days, I like a yogurt with granola, or I'll have an instant breakfast drink.

  157. I will toast Eggo waffles and eat in the car. I know, bad!!! switchlaser@gmail.com

  158. I would grab a granola bar, but honestly, I don't let myself skimp breakfast unless it's absolutely necessary. Breakfast is just too important for my day.

  159. I am the kind that grabs something and eats on the run. I have just discovered toaster waffles with peanut butter on them!! Yummy!

  160. I'm not a morning person at all. I like cereal, but almost never for breakfast (I usually go for something warm, like a waffle, muffin, banana nut bread, etc.). But to save time in the mornings I make those things in big batches ahead of time and freeze them, so I can pull a waffle quickly from the freezer, or a pre-sliced piece of banana nut bread, etc. on the go.

  164. My on-the-go breakfast is a handful of Costco peanuts, a smaller handful of raisins and an equal amount of Craisins tossed in a little bowl. It's a great munching breakfast, a little sweet, a little salty and is great in the car. I do this far too often.

  165. I'm always running behind in the mornings, so I hard-boil eggs on Sunday afternoon and bring them to work with me all week.

  166. I tend to get sick to my stomach if I eat in the morning, so usually I just have an early lunch after my first couple classes, when my stomach has woken up.

  172. Maybe it's cause I always had breakfast growing up, but I cannot go without eating all morning. Plus, my kids always eat, so I eat whatever I make them...pancakes, waffles, oatmeal, smoothies, yogurt, eggs. We like it all!

  175. Didn't your mother teach you breakfast is the most important meal of the day? If I'm in a hurry I'll whip up some protein powder with almond milk.

    ReplyDelete
  179. I try to sit down and eat something every morning, but for those I'm running late mornings I get the kids fed and I down a cup of orange juice and then often eat a Larabar because they fill me up and I know they're only filled with good for me things...then I try to stay away from the cookies or snacks until lunch. I did say try, I'm not always succesful! ;)
    THANKS!

  180. i am totally a breakfast gal! two little ones sometimes require more love than my stomach though so i basically wolf down however much of whatever i can find... cereal, toast, fruit, etc...

    ReplyDelete
  181. i almost never get to sit down for breakfast. well, i sit down in the car or on the bus, but not at a table. usually it's a granola bar or yogurt (if im on the bus and not driving), or, if i don't feel like something sweet-ish i'll have a hard boiled egg and/or a stick of cheese.

  182. I eat at my desk during the week and if possible I have Cheerios, skim milk and blueberries during hot weather. When it starts getting cool and downright cold, I switch to hot oatmeal with blueberries that I froze over the summer, pecans and Splenda brown sugar. That gives me plenty of protein and get up and go for the morning. If I have an early morning meeting, I grab a homemade yogurt with some kind of fruit and homemade granola.

    ReplyDelete
  183. THis is tough. I have been known to eat oatmeal while driving. Bad I know. Or a "bar" I love breakfast and have to eat something everyday!

  184. I make what we call egg o' muffin sandwiches and bag them for the freezer on the weekend. Then my 15 yo who is always running late can grab and heat.

  192. It's sad I have to admit....but when I am running very late and I'm hungry in the morning- I grab whatever leftovers we had from the night before and just eat it cold (pizza, chili, cassarole...).

  195. When I was in grad school trying to finish my thesis, I NEVER had time for breakfast, but I knew I'd be miserable and unproductive if I didn't eat something. The solution to my dilemma? Slim Fast. I could "eat" breakfast in about 10 seconds, and it'd definitely tide me over until lunch. I don't know if I'd want that routine for the rest of my life (thank goodness grad school is over!), but it was such a life saver then! (and on my wedding day!)

    Okay, so after having a breadmaker gathering dust for umpteen years I finally figured I could use it to have homemade bread ready for an after - church snack. Yeah! I can now say that I use my breadmaker once a week. If the bread doesn't disappear that day (usually 1/3 of a loaf left as we have lots of little people in my family) I now have a FABULOUS treat for breakfast. Warm it up, throw on some honey or strawberry freezer jam and I am super mom for about an hour until everyone else is set for the day and I can sit down and enjoy something more.

  197. I like to grab a Clif bar for breakfast.
