Our Ongoing Struggle with Breakfast....

We continue to struggle every day to get Emily to eat breakfast in the morning. She is so not a morning person.

This morning she suggested Bologna and a Carnation Instant Breakfast.

Okay, totally unconventional.

And the thought of the two together actually makes my stomach do some flips.

But she ate her breakfast like a champ and I'm pretty sure she won't be hungry at school today! I didn't have to ask her to eat once! She gobbled it down.

So ---- unconventional...but I'm not complaining!

nice combo..blechWe started banana shakes in the morning which was a big hit.

Re: Our Ongoing Struggle with Breakfast....

We tried a run with shakes last school year. I was blending up strawberries, bananas, frozen mango...all kindsa fun combinations. She thought they were nauseating and I was drinking 200cal shakes after she left for school to use them up. Lol....

Hey, no one says you have to eat breakfast specific foods for breakfast! I personally don't like cereal, etc. Maybe as a snack, but not for breakfast.

Quaker Oatmeal bars (nooked for 10 sec)
Kelloggs Nutigrain bars
Cheese stick with Hormel Turkey Pepperoni
English muffin with peanut butter or nutella

Waffles w/syrup or w/nutella for on the go
Fruit (banana, strawberries, mandarin oranges, blackberries, etc..)
Yogurt with granola and fruit
