Morning Cheer

Good morning everyone!  Don't forget to get a little breakfast before you come see us!

A good breakfast gets you fueled up for the day — but notice we said a “good” breakfast, not a donut or anything involving bacon. Here are five healthy choices for starting your day right, courtesy of the Cleveland Clinic:

§ Greek Yogurt: Loaded with calcium and B vitamins, plus twice as much protein as regular yogurt.

§ Fruit Salad: A fresh fruit salad is a nice eye-opener if you’re not super hungry, and whole fruit has more fiber than juice — any maybe more antioxidants, too.

§ Vegetable Omelet: Make it with one yolk and three egg whites to get A and B vitamins with less fat and cholesterol.

§ Whole Grain English Muffin with Peanut Butter: Filling and healthy — as long as you use peanut butter that’s made entirely of peanuts and muffins that are 100 percent whole grain.
Quinoa Cereal: Quinoa is a grain that’s loaded with protein and can be cooked as a hot cereal with almond milk, cinnamon, and/or raisins.
