No More Excuses: Breakfast Recipes for Every Morning

Wake Up Your Morning Appetite

Nearly one in five women skips breakfast, according to surveys. Try these tips from Susan Bowerman, RD, a nutritionist at California State Polytechnic University in San Luis Obispo, to break your no-nosh habit.

Divide and conquer. Start with something small, like yogurt, and eat a handful of almonds an hour or two later.
Make a fast break. When you're in a rush, grab a piece of string cheese for a dose of protein and some fruit for fiber and vitamins.
Treat yourself. Trade breakfast-prep duties with your partner to make it less of a chore.
Put it off. "If you just can't eat first thing, have an energy bar midmorning for fuel," Bowerman says. "Otherwise, you may overeat at lunch."
