We do include smoothies each morning, and I cook better breakfasts on the weekends. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2383162 Wed, 09 Dec 2015 14:31:24 +0000 megjay18 2383162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gingerbebe: smoothies might be a good idea. he literally changes his mind everyday so i honestly have no idea what to expect. </p> <p>today we did string cheese, a banana and toast with PB. he ate all of the string cheese and banana and literally one bite of the toast. there are some great ideas on here though - so i'm confident we'll have some options now! thanks everyone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2382974 Wed, 09 Dec 2015 13:07:37 +0000 yin 2382974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Every morning I make the same breakfast </p> <p>LO1 - steel cut oats, fruit, and breakfast sausage<br /> LO2 - gf oats, fruit, breakfast sausage, avocado and sometimes coconut yogurt</p> <p>I have a lot of food restrictions due to allergies, and unfortunately many of the easy go to breakfast items don't work for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2382961 Wed, 09 Dec 2015 12:56:51 +0000 gingerbebe 2382961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@megjay18: Can he manage a smoothie out of a straw cup? I make mine thinner so they can be sucked out of a straw pretty easily (think Odwalla smoothie thickness) made with yogurt, a splash of OJ or a whole peeled clementine, milk, banana, berries, and usually some kind of frozen veg like spinach or peas or carrots that can't really be detected. You can make a batch every 2-3 days and just pour it out in the morning (just shake up the bottle) since its not frozen and it can be a nice drink to have with a waffle or something. Another thing you can do is bake pancake batter in mini muffin tins with a bite of breakfast sausage or ham in the middle and freeze them in big batches. That way he gets a pancake with a little bit of protein in each bite. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2382941 Wed, 09 Dec 2015 12:43:10 +0000 HLK208 2382941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Toast or a mini bagel with fruit and yogurt </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2382580 Wed, 09 Dec 2015 08:28:25 +0000 Pumuckl 2382580@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Toast with either honey or homemade jam for my 2.5 year old and usually some cheese and rice waffle for my nearly 11m old.

So he eats that a lot, I try to serve it with a fruit.<br /> He also likes scrambled eggs and chicken sausage, and toast<br /> I will also give him yogurt and granola with a banana and he's a fan of that. I think breakfast foods are his favorites, cause we typically have no problem getting him to eat breakfast.<br /> On the weekend, DH will sometimes do something like pancakes.<br /> Dinner, on the other hand... ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2382251 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 19:18:31 +0000 babypugs 2382251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The same thing every week day: sausage, a tiny bit of cereal, yogurt, and milk. I don't feel guilty about the lack of variety because they feed her second breakfast at daycare. :)</p> <p>On weekends, we go all out with eggs, cheese grits, fruit, bacon, toast, etc. Kiddo loves breakfast! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2382180 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 17:53:41 +0000 Sophs Mama 2382180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This morning she had cereal with milk, raspberries, a yogurt drink, and a cheesestring.</p> <p>Most days it's scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, some fruit and toast or pancakes/waffles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2382059 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 16:15:48 +0000 megjay18 2382059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jhd: love pouches. he actually eats one in the car on the way to daycare. </p> <p>i think tomorrow i'm going to try PB toast, banana and string cheese. we'll see what kind of tantrums this leads to :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2382019 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 15:47:08 +0000 jhd 2382019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@megjay18: what about a yogurt pouch? My LO loves the Chobani kids Greek yogurt pouches. Maybe more expensive than pots of yogurt but certainly less messy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2382001 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 15:26:02 +0000 hellobeeboston 2382001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine is obsessed with eating the same thing every morning: mini pancakes, sausage, strawberries. (Occasionally a banana too). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2381993 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 15:17:02 +0000 avivoca 2381993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Toast, eggs, yogurt, bananas, pancakes, and cereal.

So their usual first food of the day is something like fishy crackers and raisins, or apple slices and bunny crackers, or yogurt, cheese sticks, etc. Then some time around 10:00 (or 11:45 on school days for my 3-year old) they will have a bowl of cereal or eggs or "jelly toast." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2381980 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 15:04:18 +0000 sunny 2381980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>M-F we do oatmeal or yogurt. On weekends, we might do pancakes or hashbrowns too. I should try french toast with her! She won't eat eggs (alone), but maybe she would eat french toast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2381971 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 14:58:41 +0000 sarac 2381971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Blueberries and sometimes toast. None of us are big on fancy breakfasts over here, and we all eat something simple. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2381695 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 12:13:30 +0000 catlady 2381695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On weekdays, we do a green shake every day and eggs most days or else oatmeal. On weekends, we usually do a brunch type meal on at least one day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2381681 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 12:08:13 +0000 snowjewelz 2381681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She eats 1x yobaby yofurt, some puff cereal, and then a fruit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2381665 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 12:03:14 +0000 megjay18 2381665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i would love to do yogurt or oatmeal, but he pretty much has to eat by himself (while i'm feeding the baby and getting everything ready for daycare and work) and he'll spill it all over himself or the couch if i don't watch. probably for attention.</p> <p>i'll keep trying to push toast with PB or something else. maybe bagels with cream cheese? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2381548 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 11:23:11 +0000 Ash 2381548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yogurt, smoothies, fruit, pb&amp;j, eggs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2381537 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 11:18:49 +0000 ValentineMommy 2381537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My toddler loves breakfast.</p> <p>He usually asks for oatmeal, cream of wheat, french toast or pancakes (both of which I usually pre-make and freeze so I can just reheat).</p> <p>He would eat breakfast for every meal if I let him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2381515 Tue, 08 Dec 2015 11:05:27 +0000 megjay18 2381515@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i just wanted to bump this thread. i'm having a hard time finding something my 3yo will eat in the mornings. i need something that he won't spill on himself or the couch (i.e. yogurt, oatmeal, cereal) and that's easy to make (i.e. i'm not going to make eggs or an omelette at 6 am when i'm taking care of the baby and getting myself ready). </p> <p>we've been giving him french toast sticks, nutrigrain bars, the occasional poptart, pancakes, sometimes he'll eat toast. but i feel like these aren't very nutritious and i'm starting to get mom guilt. i've tried making egg/omelettes in muffin form ahead of time and just heating them up, but he wasn't feeling it. he's kind of picky. any suggestions of what else we could try? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2359676 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 12:14:27 +0000 rattles 2359676@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LuLu Mom: ha, hardly. The weekday pancakes are the TJ silver dollar ones from the frozen section. I make the muffins a couple dozen at a time and freeze them so we can nuke them. My kid wakes me up demanding breakfast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2359670 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 12:12:05 +0000 LuLu Mom 2359670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rattles: super mom!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2359666 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 12:10:08 +0000 rattles 2359666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We rotate muffins, pancakes, yogurt, eggs, Cream of Wheat, oatmeal and cereal (Kix, raisin bran, Life or Cheerios) during the week. They always have a fruit with whatever. On the weekend I make a bigger family breakfast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2359660 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 12:07:31 +0000 mrs. wagon 2359660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Eggs pretty much every morning. Whatever fruit we have on hand (usually grapes or bananas), yogurt, and a slice of bread (my kids prefer it untoasted). On weekends we usually do pancakes once and sometimes french toast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2359646 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 11:59:35 +0000 Freckles 2359646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lately, it's been eggs, pbj toast, bagel &amp; cream cheese, steel cut oatmeal with raisins, paleo pumpkin pancakes</p> <p>I usually try to make the last two items the night before so i only have to reheat it in the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2359641 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 11:56:32 +0000 lovehoneybee 2359641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>E wants the same thing on the weekend: blueberry waffle with peanut butter (he likes to fold it into a taco), some sort of fruit yogurt, fresh fruit and milk. Occasionally he'll ask for scrambled eggs and toast. On the week days he has a blueberry waffle and applesauce pouch in the car on the way to preschool, and then they have breakfast there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2359626 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 11:44:40 +0000 gingerbebe 2359626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On days my mom watches him, he has rice porridge with veggies and meat minced into it. Then he as fruit as a snack a little later.</p> <p>On days with DH and I, lately he's been getting silver dollar pancakes with butter and a tiny bit of syrup, a sausage patty, and fruit. And he might sneak some of my eggs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-serve-for-breakfast#post-2359456 Tue, 17 Nov 2015 10:02:44 +0000 psw27 2359456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>a banana, toast with PB and yogurt usually.
