10 Minutes Hot-Take Along Breakfast Recipes

Even in warm months or places, people traditionally eat a hot breakfast. However, modern living makes us forget good healthy habits and go for a cold breakfast, that usually is too sweet to be healthy. On those hectic days that you didn’t make time for your first meal, don’t let your family leave without a warm breakfast to eat on the go. Not the healthiest thing but much better than nothing.

Time for preparation: 10 minutes or less

Pancake Roll Ups

Use pre-made pancakes, frozen or refrigerated. After re-heating, spread your favorite ingredients like peanut butter, honey or butter. Roll up and go. You can also use a sausage link or a slice of bacon if you have some already cooked in the fridge or freezer.

Quick and Easy Breakfast Sandwiches

You can use pre-cooked bacon that you’ve saved. While the bacon is heating in a small oven, toast two halves of an English muffin or a round bread. Then place two slices of bacon and a slice of cheese between the muffin halves. Wrap in a paper towel and go. This breakfast sandwich is easy to handle and delicious! You can do the same thing with a sausage patty if you so desire.

A Different Bagel

Instead of just spreading cream cheese or butter on your bagel, top it with a slice of warm ham, pre-made sausage or bacon. You can also scramble some eggs with cheese if you prefer. It makes a warm and tasty on-the-go breakfast.

Egg Roll Ups

Scrambled eggs take only a few minutes to make, like 5 or less, making for a quick and healthy way to start the day because they are packed with protein. Roll scrambled eggs into a flour tortilla or a slice of bread. Add other ingredients on hand for flavor and nutrition, like shredded cheese, chopped onion, chopped green pepper, diced ham, fresh green leaves, crumbled sausage or sliced jalapenos while cooking.

Breakfast doesn’t have to be skipped or cold incorporating the ideas above. With a little planning and imagination, you can start your family off with a hot breakfast that is faster and healthier than going through the drive through.

Note: Need a lunch box for packing a hot breakfast? I love my stainless still bento box, the right size for any of the above recipes.
