Starting the day with some protein can often help you and your children stay more satisfied and last until lunch. Planning for at least 10 grams of protein is a good place to start.

Here are some ways to get at least 10 gram of protein for a healthy and satisfying breakfast to start your day. 

• Plain Greek yogurt + berries + nuts

• Toasted whole wheat waffle + nut butter + 8 oz glass of cow’s milk or soy beverage

•  Scrambled egg + cheddar cheese (+ whole wheat tortilla) 

•  Oatmeal made with cow’smilk + nuts + raisins

Note: Most plant-based beverages except soy have little or no protein
