20 breakfast ideas for busy mums

I did a poll on my instagram this week - asking how many of you eat a nutritious breakfast every day and so many mamas said they don't. Their answers were majority 'lacking time' and 'not sure what to make'. 

But if I could pick one meal, breakfast to me is the most important. It really sets you up for the day and gives us the energy and nutrients we need. if we don't have breakfast, our energy will end up crashing and burning, and we increase cortisol as a response to this unintentional fasting. 

For 'lacking time' - here are my thoughts.
Could a morning task be made an evening task?
Like your showers? Lunchboxes?
For example, to maximise my time in the morning before school drop off, I don't shower in the mornings (only at night), I make all the lunchboxes the night before (just do their sandwiches in morn), I don't do any house work in the morning, I leave it until after school drop off.

Could you lay your little ones clothes out the night before? Pack their bags the night before with bottles, library bag etc?
Is there a possibility for you to wake up 10 minutes earlier so you do have the time to make your breakfast?

And the next question for you I have is - how would you feel if your children grew up to be adults that didn't prioritise their needs like making themselves a decent breakfast, because it wasn't modelled to them? I try to implement things for myself that shows my daughters how important it is to care for ourselves. I dont want them to see a mother who runs herself ragged and puts herself last, because I would hate that for them. 

Onto "I don't know what to make", here's 20 breakfast ideas that I'd love for you to pick a couple to have this week.
