Breakfast is the most important meal of the day! I think it’s the easiest meal time to get in a rut with. Some people skip it all together (shame, shame) and others like me get in the habit of eating the same foods every morning.
I have a morning routine; I want coffee and I want to eat directly after a great workout. Unfortunately early in the morning sometimes my brain isn’t turned on in creative mode yet! My breakfasts end up being the same boring meal over and over again: eggs and toast or instant oatmeal.
This morning I decided to break out of my current rut and really think about what I like for breakfast. My favorite breakfast foods are eggs and some level of heat (hot sauce, salsa,peppers). Luckily, WILD HARVEST sent me a whole box of yummy organic foods two weeks ago in my day of madness to try. And I knew these products were the best place to start experimenting with breakfast ideas!
If you are looking for a fabulous morning breakfast after a tough workout this Southwestern Quick Quiche will not disappoint.

After all this cooking I must admit, I enjoyed MANY of the Animal Crackers as well. I haven’t eaten animal crackers in YEARS and I learned the hard way once you eat one, it’s really hard to stop! 🙂
