So, in my freezer I have banana muffins, mini banana loaves, 1 loaf of strawberry bread, 1 loaf of banana bread, strawberry muffins, biscuits, pancakes, waffles, and french toast. I usually just take out a bag of muffins in the morning when I get up and they are defrosted by the time the boys are ready for breakfast. The pancakes and french toast I reheat in the microwave for about 1 minute 45 seconds on 70% power. The waffles crisp back up in the toaster oven beautifully. I also use the ready cooked bacon from Costco for a little protein. I usually also have some sort of fruit. The boys aren't big eaters in the morning, so I save their fruit and veggie servings for lunch, snacks, and dinner.
I really want to also make some smoothies in the mornings to get some veggies and fruit in the boys as they start their day. I always worry about the blender waking K, so I don't get it out in the mornings very often. It's something I am hoping to change as we all get on the same schedule for school this year.
I hope everyone is having a productive Monday! I only have two more things on my "to do" list to get accomplished for today! Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time,

I seriously need to do the same! I've gotten into a horrible habit of eating cereal every single morning! It's definitely more expensive and not very filling! How do you defrost everything? Lay it out or defrost in the microwave?
ReplyDeleteRachel~ I use the microwave to defrost and cook the pancakes and french toast at about 70% power for 1 1/2 minutes (maybe a little more). I put the frozen waffles right in the toaster oven and they come out great. I hope that helps!
ReplyDeleteExcellent! That will make school mornings so efficient!
ReplyDeleteI have never been a breakfast cooker. We are cold cereal/toast/oatmeal peeps. This is so awesome and inspiring! And I agree on the smoothie thing, too. Yum.
