Being the most important meal of the day, it is important to know a few healthy breakfast recipes that you can cook for a few different breakfasts throughout your week. Breakfast breaks your overnight fasting and replenishes the nutrients and glucose that you need to keep your energy levels up throughout the day.
Skipping breakfast or having an unhealthy, sugar-filled breakfast decreases mental performance, increases weight gain, and increases fatigue. Eating breakfast also boosts your metabolism and promotes eating habits and routines.
Here are some healthy breakfast recipes that you need to try to improve your physical and mental health.
Shakshuka is the first of our healthy breakfast recipes that you should try. It is a healthy, comforting and warming breakfast recipe from North Africa that is based around poached eggs and a spicy, tomato sauce. The ingredients in shakshuka include:

The next of our healthy breakfast recipes is one that was a favourite in my family – grated apple muesli. This recipe is healthy, fresh and delicious! The ingredients you need for this recipe are:
The method is super easy. To start you need to soak oats in orange juice overnight – the measurements for this depends on how much muesli you are making. Decide how much oats you need for everyone and then cover them with orange juice.
The next day you need to grate all of your Granny Smith apples and mix them through the oats with the dried fruits, and nuts of your choosing. I recommend dried apricots, dried berry mix, dried peaches, almond and walnuts. Squeeze your oranges and add them in with the pulp for another element.
Serve with a dollop of yogurt and add a pinch of cinnamon if desired.
The last of our healthy breakfast recipes is an avocado banana smoothie. This one is super nutritious, very yummy and easy to eat (drink) on the go. The ingredients for this smoothie are:
To make this smoothie you need to blend the banana, avocado and honey until smooth and then add the vanilla, milk and ice for a further 30 seconds. It is then ready to serve and can be popped in a keep cup to be taken with you.
