Sweet Healthy Breakfast Recipes

Is it Saturday yet?

I’ve been on the biggest breakfast kick and lately fruit-filled smoothies, muffins, and waffles are all I’ve been able to think about. I just finished eating a blueberry version of these muffins and now I’m sitting here daydreaming about what I might bake up this weekend.

Since sweet breakfasts can get unhealthy really quickly, I’ve rounded up some of my favorite lighter morning treats. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

    I love your new cookbook! I have a copy and just starting to cook a few things. Last night I made Lemon Broccoli & Caper Couscous. It was outstanding!! I can’t wait to have the leftovers for lunch. Seriously delicious. Thank you!
