5 Breakfasts Under 5 Minutes: 21 Day Fix Approved

I hear a lot of people say that they don't eat breakfast because they don't have the time in the morning!  It is so important to eat within an hour of waking up to make sure your body is properly fueled.  Here are some super easy breakfast ideas that you can make in under 5 minutes!



1. Banana Berry Yogurt

  • 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup blueberries
  • 1/4 banana
Mash or slice banana.  Mix all ingredients together.
21 Day Fix Container Count = 1 Red1 Purple


2. Egg Nest

  • 1 piece of whole grain toast
  • 1 egg
Punch hole in bread (eat the part you punched out), spray pan with non-stick cooking spray, put bread in pan and crack egg in the middle.  Once the first side is cooked, flip and let egg finish cooking to your desired liking. 
21 Day Fix Container Count = 1/2 Red1 Yellow


3. PB&J Waffle 

  • 1 whole grain waffle
  • 1 tsp. all natural peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup sliced strawberries
Spread peanut butter over toasted waffle, top with strawberries. 
21 Day Fix Container Count = 1 Yellow1/2 Purple, 1 tsp.

4. Southwest Scramble

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp. olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped veggies (I usually prep a bunch of random veggies on the weekend and use them throughout the week.  My favorites are green peppers, onions, and mushrooms.  Pictured is spinach.)
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp. Southwest Seasoning 
Sautee veggies in olive oil.  Whisk eggs while veggies are cooking.  Add eggs and seasoning to veggies.  Once cooked through add cheese and stir until cheese is melted.
21 Day Fix Container Count = 1 Red, 1 Green, 1 Blue, 1 tsp.


5. Hawaiian Breakfast 

  • 1/2 cup cooked brown rice (prepped ahead of time)
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 turkey sausage links
Heat pan and spray with non-stick spray.  Cook eggs over easy (I like to put a lid over the frying pan and steam the eggs, that way I don't have to flip them and risk breaking a yolk.) While eggs are cooking heat rice and sausage in microwave.  Top rice with eggs.  Tastes great with some hot sauce if you are into that. 
21 Day Fix Container Count = 2 Red1 Yellow

  1. Lady living in Hawai'i here. That's not really a Hawaiian breakfast unless you got spam, Portuguese sausage, or a musubi on that plate too. Nice thought though. (Also, no got sauce, use Sriracha or shoyu...)
