Breakfast is the meal that most people have problems with. Why? Because they are either in too much of a hurry to find something healthy to eat; they can’t be bothered to think so they end up eating the same thing every day; or they are rushing out and end up skipping breakfast or having something quick at work.

If you’re one of those people then you’re not alone. Breakfast is a meal that has confused many.

So here are some tricks and ideas to make your breakfast healthy.

First of all, do not skip breakfast. It is a very important meal that will get your energy and metabolism going first thing in the morning.

Second, do not repeat your breakfast. Even if there is something that you love having, try to rotate it with some other options.  Having a certain food too often can create a food intolerance and all the health symptoms associated with it.

If you do not have time for breakfast at home, make sure you pack a healthy breakfast and take it with you to work. The worst thing is to let yourself be tempted with unhealthy options at work from the canteen or what your colleagues bring in.

Here are some breakfast options that will keep your energy levels sustained throughout the day:
* Vegetable sticks with hummus
* A bowl of cooked chickpeas
* Two organic boiled eggs with slices of tomato and cucumber
* Pumpkin soup
* Organic porridge oats with almond milk
* Rice cakes with mashed olives spread

Once you start realising that it’s ok for breakfast to include vegetables, soups, or even salads, you’ll get more creative and have fun with it. The quality of your breakfast can determine the quality of the rest of your day!
