UltimateMama discovered a new kitchen must-have that makes creating mini pancakes or pancake “cereal” incredibly easy.  The pancaker is sold by the Container Store and offers an all in one measure, mixing, and shaking product complete with a spout for an easy to pour experience. Just use your favorite mix and you can whip up creative mini pancakes in minutes! Add chocolate chips if you feel decadent.

UltimateMama gave her kids a protein packed breakfast to go this morning. This quick and easy breakfast sandwich was made in 5 minutes and given a 5 star rating by the girls.  Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich recipe (for one):

– 1 Portuguese roll

– 1 egg (add a tablespoon of milk and scramble)

– Turkey bacon (from yesterday morning)

Just heat up the roll in a pan, place the scrambled egg on the bottom half of the roll, put a strip of turkey bacon on top of the egg, and cover with top of roll!

Enjoy!

UltimateMama’s kids love Acai bowls for breakfast. They are thick, rich, and packed with nutrients.  To make:

-Cut off the top and put it into a blender (it will be slightly frozen)

-Add 1/4 cup of orange juice or almond milk (or more to your liking)

-Add some slices of blueberries, banana, raspberries, blackberries, or strawberries

-Blend

-On the stovetop saute 1/4 cup oats with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar

-In your bowl, pour oats over the Acai mixture

-Enjoy!

UltimateMama needed a day off from cooking 3 meals a day so she opted for this quick, easy, and nutritious yogurt treat for breakfast.  To assemble:

-Place some Greek yogurt with honey on a platter

-Put some fresh berries in little glass bowls (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries work well)

-Set a bowl of granola in the middle

-Let each child or adult assemble their own yogurt, fruit, and granola parfaits
