Things You'll Need:
- English Muffins
- Bananas
- Fruit Juices
- Peanut Butter
- Whole-grain Bread
- Bananas

Step 1
Take breakfast with you - stash a whole-grain bagel or muffin, a hard-boiled egg, yogurt or a small jar of peanut butter and some fruit in your bag and take it with you to work.
-
Step 2
Shop in advance. Buy fresh-squeezed juices in small containers, whole-grain unsweetened cereal that just needs hot water added, eggs to hard-boil. This way you'll have breakfast ready every morning to take along to work, or you can eat it in the car.
-
Step 3
Be creative. Take along a slice of leftover pizza, or pack up a leftover casserole.
-
Step 4
Buy breakfast on your way to work if you don't have time to pack up a breakfast or eat before leaving the house. Check out stores and cafés near your house and en route to work. Check their hours and pick ones that will be open early. Avoid buying sweet pastries and doughnuts, which provide empty calories and will set you up for a massive energy slump.
-
Step 5
Opt for low-sugar, high-fiber, high-protein choices. Choose a bagel and cream cheese, a whole-grain fruit-juice-sweetened muffin, scrambled eggs on an English muffin or a slice of quiche.
-
Step 6
Read labels on the popular breakfast and energy bars. Many are very high in sugar and not as healthy as they appear.
-
Step 7
Eat something in the morning even if you are not very hungry. A banana or apple is a healthy snack, or you could have a slice of whole-grain toast. These are quick and easy to eat at home, take along or buy on the run.

on 5/13/2009 Breakfast is the BEST way to kick off a good day--however, eating unhealthy breakfast would be counterproductive towards starting off sharp. That's why I fell in love with Eggology's On-the-Go snacks: http://www.eggology.com/Public/Products/Egg_WhiteOn-the-Go/index.cfmNot only do I feel healthy by eating this instead of my bagel with Nutella, I also find that my body functions a lot better when it's been fed 100% organic/natural products. Try it and I hope you become as big of a fan as I have become!

on 12/8/2008 Just in case you're looking for some other simple & organic breakfast options to grab on the run in the morning, consider Van's Organic Frozen Waffles. Made from all natural ingredients, these waffles are free of dairy, eggs, trans fat and preservatives. Or, keep in mind Eggology's new organic Hardboiled Eggs or their On-the-Go Egg Whites - organic scrambled egg whites ready in 95 seconds in the microwave.
In addition, Barbara’s Bakery recently introduced a new organic Ultima medley cereal line, which contains health benefits of fiber, pomegranate or flax & granola in every bite.
