As promised, here are three of my favorite breakfast options.  All of them are healthy and fast.  My 3 year old son loves helping me in the kitchen, so they have to be easy too!  First, my little ones favorite.....

No excuses with recipes like this one, I'm on the road, traveling through 3 states each month.  I can stop at any coffee shop for a cup of soy milk.  Take my Shake mix with me, and a couple flavor packets or pudding mix.  My small, travel sized, ninja blender goes with me everytime I leave the house.  Don't have an outlet adapter in your car, go to any health food store, and purchase a protein shaker cup.  With the ball inside, you can add your ingredients, shake, and go!
