It’s no secret that a hearty breakfast is the best way to start the day off and yet many people fail to eat after they wake up. To stay as healthy as possible and have energy that lasts throughout the day you have to take the time to eat a good, and preferably home-cooked, breakfast!
For many of us this can be tricky, especially if you’re not a morning person. Whipping up something delicious means waking up earlier than usual and lots of us just don’t have the motivation to make anything first thing in the morning. Not to mention, it often takes a long time to cook up something yummy from scratch.
