Sending the kids off to school with these healthy breakfast recipes will guarantee they're alert and functioning at their best. From mini frittatas to yogurt parfaits, these quick and easy breakfast recipes are sure to please even the pickiest eaters.
Mini frittatas are my solution for kids who don't have time for breakfast. Adorable, super portable and tasty, this frittata recipe is the ideal breakfast on-the-go. You can make these fritattas in advance, and just warm them in the toaster or microwave.I use turkey pepperoni in these mini frittatas, because you don't have to cook it in advance, and it adds terrific flavor. But you can always substitute ham, Canadian bacon or regular bacon instead.
