Every morning I want to make sure that my girls start their day off with the best possible nutrition to fuel them for the best possible day academically and athletically. A typical breakfast is fruit and nuts or eggs and sprouted grain bread or a protein smoothie shake. When I have more time and usually on the weekends I have been making Healthy Protein Pancakes. I wanted to try something new and creative this morning because my girls were asking for something different. It took me the same amount of time and they thought this breakfast was such a special treat! It was really fun having them wake up and come out to this creative fun breakfast! The same nutritional value was in this, but it just seemed more fun the way I did it! I still cooked them free range eggs from our local farmer, but this time I put it inside a heart shape and a star shape inside of their sprouted grain bread. It was so cute and very yummy! I put strawberries around the bread and eggs to finish it off. I also made a “mini” protein smoothie and put them into the ZOKU popsicle maker that makes popsicles in 7 minutes. They had their protein smoothie as a popsicle and thought they were getting a treat and it was loaded with vitamins and protein! What a great morning! I encourage every parent to try this because it was so easy and healthy!!
