Breakfast for Those on a Run

Skip breakfast or skip putting on your shoes?!? I would pick skip putting on my shoes.

The result of skipping breakfast is pre-afternoon hunger and sluggishness.

To get the most out of a quick breakfast, follow the A.M. FUEL rules:

Anything is better than nothing
Mix it up

Fill up on fiber and protein
Useless calories from sugar and fat make you feel sluggish
Eating is fun - start your day with a smile
Lean and light starts your morning right

Need some new breakfast ideas, well just keep following the blog for delicious and time saving recipes and ideas.

Banana Oatmeal Smoothie
* 1 cup low-fat milk
* 1 cup orange juice
* 1 medium banana - cut into pieces
* 1 pack of instant oatmeal - regular or unflavored
* 3 or 4 ice cubes

This is so easy. Just place all ingredients in the blender and blend for a minute or so until smooth.
