Everyone knows about the importance of breakfast. It helps keep students focused during class and they perform better on tests than those who skipped out on breakfast, but knowing this does not always persuade students to make the change.

Some find it difficult to eat so early in the morning. Others only manage to get out of bed five minutes before leaving for school.

If only someone could come up with a list of quick and easy breakfast options for those who are in a rush in the mornings.

Maybe this will help.

Buy whole wheat or whole grain waffles and spread some peanut butter on it, instead of messing around with sticky, sugary syrup.

Blend fruits and vegetables to make a tasty smoothie for the drive to school. Make the smoothie in large quantities so it lasts throughout the week.

Another healthy option includes baking blueberry muffins in large quantities. Students can freeze them for up to a month and microwave them for 15 seconds before running out the door.
