On The Go Breakfast Ideas

   For more healthy recipes, be sure to follow our Facebook page. I will only post recipes I try and like. I will post recipes that I have modified on the blog.
 We do a lot of day trips and traveling and most of the time we leave really early in the morning. Most of the time, I'm not hungry before we load up in the vehicle before we leave so I have to bring something with me. This takes some planning ahead, especially now that we are eating healthier. Recently, I tried these 2 recipes and am very happy with them as on the go breakfast options. The second recipe is my favorite one. I think I'm going to start making big batches of that one and then freezing them.
