A Healthy Kids Breakfast Tip #3: Yogurt with Granola
My kids LOVE this and it is just too easy to make! Pour some low-fat yogurt into a bowl and sprinkle it was some low-fat, low-sugar granola. Your child will think they're eating dessert, it is so tasty! This is a fabulous option that is so quick and so easy.
**TIP** - If using Non-fat Plain Yogurt add a dash of Vanilla Extract for flavor and to take away the bitterness!
A Healthy Kids Breakfast Tip #4: Fruit Smoothie
This is a great breakfast if your kids need to take it to go. Simply throw some frozen or fresh fruits (like blueberries, peaches, strawberries, bananas, or any other fruit you enjoy), some juice (like orange juice), and vanilla yogurt into a blender and blend away. Pour your smoothie into a to-go cup and your child will be fueled with some nutritious nutrients!

Add a glass of milk and you have a filling and tasty breakfast. Make sure the muffins are whole wheat, low in sugar, and filled with ingredients that are healthy.
