If you’re a chronic breakfast skipper, trying some fresh breakfast ideas may get you excited about your morning meal. A breakfast sandwich is an easy way to get the benefits of eating breakfast.

Forget the soggy English muffin sandwiches you can get at fast-food restaurants. Getting creating with the bread and fillings means every morning is a new culinary adventure. Packing the sandwich with proteins and veggies loads them up with nutrients to start your day in a healthy way.

Check out these breakfast recipes for inspiration. Then get creative and experiment with your own combinations.

1. Egg and Bagel Thin Sandwiches

An egg breakfast sandwich with or without meat is a classic option. A large egg has just 70 calories, but it provides your body with 6 grams of protein. If you want a lighter version, use only the egg whites on your sandwich.

Make it lighter by using thin bagels instead of full-sized bagels to cut the carb count and lower the calories. You can also use light English muffins as your base. Using only one half of the bread to eat the sandwich open-face style cuts calories even more.

Cook an egg any style you like. Add your choice of breakfast meats and cheese. Turkey bacon or chicken sausage is a healthier option for your sandwich.

If you don’t have time to eat your sandwich at home, wrap it up in foil and take it to work. Grab your favorite type of coffee on the way to complete the meal.

2. Veggie Egg Scramble Pitas

Keep it light and simple by mixing egg whites and veggies to make a healthy pita filling. Spinach, onions, peppers, mushrooms, and tomatoes are good choices.

Add veggies like onions and peppers to the skillet first so they soften. Add spinach toward the end of the egg cooking time to wilt it just a little. Add tomatoes after the eggs are fully cooked.

If you want a little extra flavor, sprinkle shredded cheese into the eggs when they’re done cooking. Season the mix with salt, pepper, and other favorite herbs or spices.

Scoop the veggie egg scramble into a pita pocket and serve.

3. Ham and Egg Wrap

Skip the carbs by using the ham as the wrap on this handheld sandwich. The ham holds the eggs and other fillings inside the wrap.

Scramble eggs with spinach or other favorite veggies. Stir in a little cheese just until it melts. Season the egg scramble with salt and pepper plus other seasonings you enjoy.

Layer two slices of ham on a plate to give the “wrap” extra stability. Scoop some of the egg mixture onto the ham, and roll it up like a wrap.

If you want a crispy outside, place the ham roll-ups in a baking dish. Broil them for a few minutes until they get crispy. Always watch broiling food closely as it can turn from perfectly browned to burnt quickly.

4. Huevos Rancheros Breakfast Sandwich

This classic Mexican breakfast dish is served traditionally on tortillas. In this version, you can use a light English muffin or thin bagel to hold the ingredients.

Toast the English muffin to give it a crispy texture. Top the base with heated refried beans, mashed avocado, eggs cooked your favorite way, and salsa. Finish the sandwich with the top of the English muffin.

5. Whole Wheat Waffle Sandwiches

Start your morning with a healthy dose of grains when you use whole wheat waffles as an alternative bread for your sandwich. If you’re really hungry, use two waffles for a top and bottom. Make it a lower calorie and lower carb sandwich by folding a single waffle in half with the fillings in the middle taco style.

What you put inside your waffle is up to you. Scrambled eggs with veggies and turkey bacon or sausage. Sprinkle a little cheese on top for extra flavor and protein.

6. Open-Face Portobello Mushroom Sandwich

Replace the traditional bread on your breakfast sandwich with a robust portobello mushroom cap. The thin, flat shape makes it a good stand-in for a bagel or English muffin.

Soften the mushroom cap by drizzling it with a little olive oil and broiling it for 10 minutes or until it’s soft. Saute your choice of vegetables and some chicken or turkey sausage. Fry an egg to the doneness that you like.

Assemble the open-faced sandwich by scooping the cooked veggies inside the mushroom cap. Add the egg on top.

7. Avocado Toast Sandwich

Sure, avocado toast is a bit of a cliche, especially among the millennial set. But the benefits of avocados make this a serious contender for a healthy morning sandwich. They’re packed with vitamins and good fats.

Start with two pieces of your choice of bread or a light English muffin and toast it. Mash an avocado and spread it over both sides. Salt and pepper the avocado.

Now you can get creative with other toppings. Add eggs, other vegetables, bacon, or any other toppings that sound good. With the variety of filling options, you can have avocado toast every morning with variety each day.

Put the two slices of toast together like a sandwich, or eat them separately open-face style.

8. Breakfast Burrito

It may not technically fall under the sandwich category, but a morning burrito is a savory handheld dish that you can make healthier depending on what you add. Choosing corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas starts off the burrito on a lighter note.

Inside, stuff eggs cooked in your favorite style with veggies, cheese, and salsa. Add a little light sour cream to balance out the flavors.

Each day it seems as though our lives are on fast-forward. When you’re on the go grabbing fast food is convenient. Those fatty, processed meat sandwiches and greasy hash-browns can entice an empty tummy. Those foods are okay but in moderation.

If breakfast is the most important meal of the day you shouldn’t ignore the essentials your body needs. Consider changing your eating habits to include healthier options like smoothies.

Smoothies provide the right amount of daily fruit and veggie servings without tasting like paste. Yet many fruit-heavy smoothies come with too much sugar.

Although natural sugar is good for you, consuming large quantities of sugar each day is bad. It even increases your chances of developing Diabetes.

So when you’re making the switch from junk food to healthy choices then try low sugar smoothies.

Reasons to Drink Low Sugar Smoothies

Aside from being a better breakfast option than cereal, smoothies have legitimate benefits with convenience being at the top of the list.

Drinking smoothies doesn’t need to be a drawn-out chore. Whether you’re making them at home or grabbing one before work, smoothies are quick and easy. But other benefits of smoothies include:

• Boosting Metabolism
• Curb Cravings
• Extra Energy
• Lower Blood Pressure
• Relieving Arthritis Pain
• Youthful Look

Yes, smoothies can boost your metabolism if made with the right ingredients. According to eatthisnotthat.com, ginger, and cayenne pepper help people burn fat at a quicker rate than people eating the same meal without this ingredient.

Smoothies also curb your cravings for junk food if you add a little apple cider vinegar or cinnamon to your drink.

Need the energy of a superhero? Try putting cold-brew coffee, banana and protein powder for the lasting jolt of energy you need to get through the first half of your day.

According to Eat This, Not That, potassium foods provide a natural remedy to lower blood pressure. This is due to how the mineral helps with sodium effects on the body and it “eases tension on blood vessel walls.” So tossing in a banana or two into your smoothie is a good idea.

Millions of people suffer from arthritis due to many reasons. In order to prevent inflammation be aware of what food cause it and which ones reduce it. If you want to help ease the symptoms make a low sugar smoothie with kale, spinach, blueberries or strawberries. All of these ingredients have anti-inflammatory attributes according to Harvard Health Publishing.

Want to keep your youthful appearance? Consider drinking smoothies with apricots, carrots, cinnamon or honey. Each of these items contains beta-carotene and may help repair damaged skin according to Eat This, Not That.
