Mornings can be hectic. Whether it’s a school day and you want to fuel the kids before heading out the door, or a weekend when you’re trying to get out the door for sports practice or dance class. Starting the day with a satisfying meal doesn’t have to be a struggle. These quick and filling breakfasts for a busy morning are worth saving in your Recipe Box.
Overnight oats and baked oatmeal are perfect for meal prep. Handheld treats like breakfast egg muffins, breakfast crunch wraps, and ham, cheese, and egg sliders are great for on the go. How about a quick slice of breakfast pizza? A biscuit and gravy breakfast casserole, croissant breakfast sandwich casserole, or Monte Cristo breakfast casserole will be a big hit. Everyone will be full and satisfied.
