2012 resolution #1: eat breakfast

I make a healthy breakfast for my children each day...why don't I sit down and enjoy it too? Eating breakfast is my first resolution of 2012. And, since I am all about making resolutions that I can actually sustain, I am listing a few of my favorite make-ahead breakfasts here for easy reference for myself:

• protein pancakes (or you can watch the video here)
• toast with hummus and hard-boiled eggs (loaded with protein)
• veggie frittatas (you can watch the video here)
• Meme's steel cut oatmeal (shown above with a few fruit toppings: thawed peaches and strawberries and fresh grapefruit and oranges, in addition to agave and cinnamon)
• this homemade granola or this homemade granola
• baked oatmeal

And, on days when I have time, here are a few more simple breakfasts I can pull together before the school bus arrives or weekend activities start:

• yogurt parfaits (paring it down to 1-2 fruits + nuts, etc and let the kids assemble their own...)
• greens & eggs scramble
• egg toasts
• egg sandwiches with pesto (decadent)
• veggie hash (which I could make with any leftover vegetables too...)

This list gives me a good launchpad to following through on this healthy habit.
