With the new school year about to start, I’ve been on the hunt for quick and easy back to school breakfast ideas. See, cold cereal is certainly quick, but I feel better when my kids go off to school after having eaten something a bit more filling and nutritious. This usually translates into a time consuming project. Fortunately though, I’ve found a handful of awesome and delicious breakfasts that both my kids and husband love, and that can be made in a matter of minutes!
Looking for some quick and easy back to school breakfast ideas? These 12 solutions should get you going. (As for me, all I want is coffee until after everyone is out the door!)
