The back-to-school rush is here. Whether you are getting ready for school, work, or getting your kids to school, the morning can be hectic. Often, we hear about meal prepping and meal planning, but what about a quick 5-minute breakfast? Count me in. Below are several options:

1. Jimmy Dean’s Delights – breakfast sandwich or bowl

2. Protein shake – enjoy your favorite protein powder in a shake with a banana and milk of your choice

• Protein powder (see serving on the container)
• 1 banana (fresh or frozen)
• 1 cup of milk (cow, oat, almond, soy, coconut, etc.) - Click the link to learn which milk is right for YOU: https://casespecificnutrition.com/which-milk-is-healthiest/

3. Overnight oats – This recipe is super easy because you combine all the ingredients in a mason jar and leave in the fridge overnight. In the morning, grab and go.

Make it unique! Here is my fav:

• 1 cup rolled oats
• ½ cup milk (I use oat milk)
• ½ cup Greek yogurt
• 1 banana, mashed
• 2 tbsp peanut butter
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• 2 tbsp chocolate chips

You can also add honey, hemp seeds, chia seeds, or ground flax seeds for extra nutrients.After discussing these quick recipes, can you think of any others?
