Thank you to Malt-O-Meal® for sponsoring today’s post and reminding us that mornings can be a breeze with On the Go Breakfast Ideas! All opinions are 100% my own.
My mornings are a real drag. Trying to get the girls to school on time is like mission impossible. For starters it’s really my fault, I’m just not a morning person. If I could sleep in late every day I totally would. However, I do understand the importance of making sure the girls eat something in the morning to get their day started off on the right foot – even if their shoes are on the wrong feet. These 5 quick and easy on the go breakfast ideas will hopefully help you get out the door a little faster on slower mornings.
5 Quick and Easy On the Go Breakfast Ideas
The struggle is real. Each and every single morning. When I serve the girls breakfast I always put it in a container they can easily take with them. Even though they usually have plenty of time to eat their breakfast, some days are a bit more rushed than others. Serving their breakfast in a disposable cup or ziploc bag allows them to just take their breakfast with them and continue eating it in the car on the ride to preschool. Some of their – and my, favorite quick and easy on the go breakfast idea options are:
- Cereal in a disposable cup or ziploc bag (optional: sippy cup of milk)
- Sliced fruit or a banana
- Yogurt smoothie or parfait
- Waffles
- Granola bar
The girls love the Malt-O-Meal® Berry Colossal Crunch. The Crunch. The Flavor. I love it too because it is real delicious and has real value with flavor in every bite. You can easily find a flavor or two or 34 that you’ll love because Malt-O-Meal® brand cereals come in 34 delicious varieties, so there’s something for every taste bud in the family. Finding them is easy at many of your local supermarkets, including Walmart and Target, which lends to making breakfast easy on your budget!
Speaking of budgets, make sure to print this coupon for $1 off your purchase of two Malt-O-Meal® brand cereals – one for the kids and one for you! With the 34 different varieties you can easily create delicious cereal recipes like a Colossal Berry Crunch yogurt parfait or a Crunchy Cinnamon Toasters french toast. Both of these cereal recipes are fun and easy to make breakfast for kids. The kids can help pitch in to help you make them. Did you know that when kids help out in the kitchen they are more likely to try and/or eat new foods?

My go to in the mornings is a granola bar, or half of one.
I love the ideas! Eating on the go is such a challenge, especially eating HEALTHY on the go. I buy breakfast bars, granola and fruits for when I’m on the go!
Yogurt smoothies are amazing. I love to have them for breakfast, they fill me up especially when I am on the go. 🙂
My favorite meal of the day ☺
Great ideas!!
I like these fast and easy ideas. We had waffles yesterday with yogurt and it was delicious. My daughter loves to take cereal with her.
Sometimes you have to just go – go -go. We are big on waffles (no syrup!) or even Clif Bars and fruit.
Malt-o-Meal is a great alternative to the more expensive cereals. My teenage daughter brings some to school in a baggie as a snack.
I am not a morning person either, and breakfast has always been a struggle in my house, so thank you for the suggestions!
Great ideas! Trying to get out of the house and get everyone fed can be very trying. My go to on the go breakfast is string cheese!
Getting out of the house on time is sonetimes a challenge for us as well and on those days our go to is cheese cubes and nuts or a granola bar.
I think alot of families have a difficult time getting going in the morning. These are some great suggestions for healthy breakfast. Thank you so much for sharing.
