Breakfast is your chance to set your day on the right path before it even begins. Many of us routinely sacrifice breakfast time for a few extra minutes of sleep, but giving up that boost of energy can hold you down.
If you find yourself rushing out the door in the mornings, plan ahead and either take something with you or have something quick before you leave. Eggs are packed with nutritional value. They’re an excellent source of protein and contain vitamins A and D, so it’s convenient that they are so versatile. For a simple and easy-to-prepare meal, you can quickly microwave an egg in a coffee mug to make it the perfect shape for an English muffin sandwich. If you want a little more excitement, put a hardboiled egg on top of some oatmeal with avocado and hot sauce.
