Breakfast on the go!

 Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day.  When you eat breakfast you kick start your metabolism which helps you continue to burn calories throughout the day.  It gives you the energy you need to get work done and helps you focus at work or school.  Skipping breakfast can throw off your body's rhythm of fasting and eating.  When you wake up the blood sugar your body and brain need to work is low.  Breakfast helps replenish this and gets your body going.

I used to be a big breakfast eater.  I had gotten to the point that I was so busy getting the kids ready for school and then coming home to all of my daily chores that I was skipping breakfast.  Then around 10am I am starving and just grabbing whatever I can to get some food.  I was basically having either protein bars or trail mix 😮.

So I decided to find some make ahead recipes so that I have a quick convenient and healthy breakfast ready for me when I get hungry.  I got all the ingredients I needed to make oatmeal muffins and egg muffins.  I must admit that both of these were fairly easy to make and they are delicious.  Recipes are on the recipes page of the blog.

I highly recommend this silicone baking dish and these silicone baking cups when making these muffins.  They literally popped right out and did not make a mess at all!

I will be posting variations of the muffins because I have come up with some great ones for fall!

Please leave feedback on what you think of the muffins and share your ideas with me!
