Healthy Breakfast Ideas To Start The Day Off Right

---

The first meal of the day is always best when it’s delicious, clean-eating, and packed with nutrients. These Healthy Breakfast Ideas will give you tons of inspiration for breakfasts that will provide you with energy that lasts the day through!

I love to start the day off right, don’t you? A good beginning to the morning sets the tone for the rest of the day. 
But, to be perfectly honest, I don’t always feel like getting up at the crack of dawn and jumping right into things. 
So, a delicious breakfast that I can’t wait to dive into is the perfect way to get me going! Food that gives me energy and that I really enjoy makes getting up early not so bad, after all. 
Well, almost.
Make this list of healthy breakfast ideas your go-to resource for clean-eating, easy to prepare food to start your day. I’ve included powerhouse ingredients in every recipe, which are free of refined sugar and flour, two things that can sap your energy in a snap. You’ll find egg dishes, smoothies and a ton of other sweet and savory meals.
I’ve got on-the-go options, choices for lazy weekend mornings (yes, I remember those), and dishes that suit specific eating regimens like gluten-free, keto, and paleo. To top it all off, every dish is absolutely yummy!

HOW DO I MAKE A HEALTHY BREAKFAST?Making breakfast from clean-eating ingredients is the way to go. Whole grains, like oats, low-sugar proteins such as plain Greek yogurt, and power foods like eggs tick all the boxes for healthy breakfast ideas. Nuts, seeds (one of my favorite breakfast spreads is Homemade Chia Jam), and complex carbs in the form of fruits and veggies round out the formula.  
Choose a recipe free of refined sugar and flour, and use sweeteners like raw honey and pure maple syrup. It’s easy peasy to put your best foot forward when you eat right. If prepping the night before is what you have to do, I’ve got the solution in yummy overnight oats. If grab and go is your style, make a batch of healthy muffins. Scrumptious smoothies are a good choice, too!
