But at some point after kids, I am no longer a morning person
and ironically not a night person either. I’m more a midmorning to early
evening person. I have to drag my behind out of bed in the morning and make a
beeline straight to the coffee maker. Thank god for programmable ones!!! My
oldest son is not a morning person either, and he is only 9. In his teenage
years, I can see him still lounging about in bed until noon on the
weekends.
Even with all the prepping I do
at night (showering, making lunches, making coffee, etc.) I still struggle to
get everything done in the morning.
Which ends with me not having breakfast until 10:00 after I have already
gotten to work and typically it is not the healthiest of meals as I grab some
processed food that can be scoffed down between calls.
This week I have discovered the
best breakfast ever and it can be made and eaten quickly in the morning between
feeding the boys breakfast and getting them dressed. Jamba
Juice Smoothie Kits in Green Fusion. It is a blend of fruit and veggies.
The directions do say to blend it with apple juice. However I try and stay away
from juices. The amount of sugar in them can send anyone into diabetic shock! I
add 8 oz of water with a scoop of vanilla whey protein powder and use a hand
blender to combine it. The protein powder adds a milkshake vibe to the taste.
Even my 7 year old guzzles it down and he has no idea that he is drinking broccoli
and spinach! And all that is left for clean up is a couple glasses and the hand
blender, which can be quickly rinsed.
What do you go to for a quick and
easy breakfast during the hectic morning routine?
