Wake Up To A
Healthy Breakfast
Say “breakfast” to some people
and visions of a big, farmstyle
breakfast of home fries, warm bis
cuits, bacon, eggs and fresh
squeezed orange juice pop into
their heads.
While most adults would agree
that breakfast is an important
meal, approximately one-fourth of
all adults usually or always skip it,
and fewer people than ever are
eating breakfast at home.
If you are a breakfast skipper or
stop for breakfast at your favorite
fast food restaurant, why not put
your time-management skills into
action and opt for a breakfast that
can be quickly prepared and eaten
at home, or put together at your
desk. With a little advance plan
ning, you can enjoy a breakfast
that supplies the energy and
important nutrients needed by the

body throughout the day.
Consider some basic options;
an eight ounce carton of yogurt, a
half cup of cottage cheese, one
and one half slices of cheese, a
slice of bread, a cup of ready-to
eat cereal and a medium size apple
w orange. Foods from each of the
basic four food groups can be mix
ed and matched in a variety of
simple breakfast combinations.
For example, on mornings
when nothing seems to go right,
pour a cup of cereal into a contain
er and carry it to work accompan
ied by an orange or banana. Add a
carton of milk from the vending
machine, and you have yourself a
nutritious breakfast. For some
thing a bit more enticing, spread
one-half cup of ricotta cheese on a
slice of whole grain bread and top
it with a teaspoon of jam or a
sprinkling of cinnamon. Or, if
bagels are your passion, spread on
some cream cheese and top with
slices of apple.
Breakfast shakes from the blen
der take but a few minutes to pre
pare and offer a refreshing pause.
Prepare a Banana Eggnog Shake
by adding one-half ripe banana,
one large egg, three-fourths cup
milk, and a teaspoon of sugar to a
blender container and whirl
together. Pour into a glass and
sprinkle with nutmeg. Or pour into
a small thermos and carry it tp
work, being sure to shake it well
before drinking. For a yogurt
based shake, blend togehter one
cup of plain yogurt, one-third cup

Of milk, a cup of cut-up fiesh fruit,
a few drops each of vanilla and
sweetener and a dash of nutmeg.
Add a tablespoon of wheat gam
and several tablespoons of nonfat
dry milk for extra nutrients.
Open-faced breakfast sandwi
ches can also be put together
quickly and broiled in your toaster
oven. Slices of tomato and hard
cooked egg topped with a slice of
low-fat cheese provide an unusual
but tasty breakfast entree.
When time is more abundant on
the weekends, cook some extra
breakfast foods and freeze them to
reheat in the microwave during
the week. Whole wheat pancakes

and crumbled bacon have been
added will provide the extra stay
ing power needed for a busy
morning at work. Forget the tradi
tional topping of butter and maple
syrup; they are tasty enough to eat
"as is."
Do not overlook a piece of lef
tover cheese pizza or quiche as a
sound way to begin the day. Try
red and green grapes, a slice or
two of cheese and some crackers.
Post these suggestions on your
refrigerator door, so that the next
time you think of leaving the
house without breakfast you will
have a ready supply of tasty ideas
worth waking up for.
