When you’re living life in the fast lane and you don’t have time to sit down and eat a full continental breakfast with orange juice, oatmeal, sausage and over-easy eggs every morning, don’t fear! We’ve got four easy on-the-go breakfast ideas that will suit you just fine!

1. Power Balls

These little bundles of energy will keep you going all morning long. Simply mix together the following in a large bowl and form into balls on wax paper. When firm, put them into a sealable container, and have at ‘em whenever you’re on the go in the morning!

Here’s the recipe:

– 1 cup old-fashioned oats

– 1/2 cup ground flax seeds

– 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

– 1/4 cup honey

– 1/3 cup natural peanut butter

– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2. Fruit (in Its Own Container!)

Here’s an easy one: Just grab a piece of fruit that has its own “container.” That would be oranges, bananas, and apples most of all. These can easily be thrown into your work bag and eaten on-the-go. Healthy and delicious.

3. Trail Mix

Trail mix is easy to carry (because it’s so small!), nutritious, simple to make and delicious. Mix some up at home using your own dark chocolate chips, almonds, cashews, raisins, and dried fruit. Alternatively, buy a premade package at the store. They’re just as good.

4. Egg and Bacon English Muffin

Lastly, make your own breakfast sandwich using a toasted whole wheat English muffin, a sliced hard boiled egg (that you made the night before), a slice of cheese, and some microwavable bacon. This one’s slightly more time intensive, but it’s still an easy and nutritious option.

Having a great kitchen in your apartment can make all the difference when it comes to how often you cook and thusly, how nutritious your diet is. Are you looking for a place with a better kitchen in Flagstaff, Arizona? Contact us today to see which of our Flagstaff Apartments are still available.
