If you usually rush to the maximum in the morning and always end up having breakfast in the office, these healthy breakfasts to take to work will suit you very well.
Having breakfast at work does not have to be synonymous with having coffee with a couple of cookies. If you ride it well, you can have a much more complete, delicious and healthy breakfast every day, even if you don't have time to take it at home. We propose five healthy breakfasts to take to work that are proof of that.
1. Porridge porridge
Oatmeal is a cereal rich in fiber and antioxidants. It is also very satiating, so it is a good option to start the day with energy and without going hungry. To prepare it you will only need about 40 or 50 grams of oatmeal and a glass of milk, vegetable drink or water. It is usually done in a saucepan, but since the idea is to have breakfast in the office, you only have to take the ingredients and do it in the microwave. To do this, put in a bowl the liquid you choose with the oatmeal and put it in the micro 2 minutes at maximum power. Take it out, remove it and put it back in a couple of minutes if necessary.
You can add cinnamon so that it has a sweeter taste and/or whatever you want most: pieces of fruit, nuts, chocolate, some nut cream ... take your imagination!
2. Yogurt with fruits
You will only need a natural yogurt without added sugars (it can be vegetable), your favorite fruits (banana, strawberries, peach, blueberries, kiwi ...) and some topping that you like nuts, dark chocolate chips with more than 70% cocoa or peanut butter. To have it ready and start taking it as soon as you arrive, a good idea is to use a small pot and put the ingredients in layers so that the flavors are mixed. Close it well, store it in the fridge until you go to work, and that's it!
3. Oatmeal and banana cookies
If you are a fan of cookies, why not bet on homemade and healthy ones? Taking them to work will not bother you and you will stop taking cookies from the supermarket rich in poor quality ingredients (sugar, refined oils, additives ...).
You will only need 2 ripe bananas, 250 g of whole oats, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, dark chocolate chips and 1 or 2 natural dates to sweeten. Mix all the ingredients until you get a homogeneous paste. Separate into portions and shape a cookie. Place them on a separate baking sheet and bake at 200ยบ for about 20 minutes.
Although cookies have bananas, we recommend that you take one or two pieces of fruit to make your breakfast more complete.
4. Fruit dip with peanut butter
If you are in a hurry, you will only have to take these fruits with a small pot of peanut butter. Of course, to be healthy this can only carry peanuts, look at its ingredients! If you have a couple of minutes, chop the fruit beforehand and take it in the Tupper. If you have never tried the combination of any of these fruits with the cream, it sure surprises you. And the best thing is that you will be taking fiber, vitamins and, thanks to the peanut, also proteins and healthy fats.
Just do not overdo the amount of peanut butter because it is quite caloric: with 2 or 3 tablespoons it will be enough. Of course, you can use other creams such as almonds or cashews. Mind you, make sure your only ingredient is nuts.
5. Healthy snack
For your snack to be healthy you must pay attention to both bread and ingredients. As for bread, see that it only has whole wheat flour, be it wheat, spelled or any other cereal.
Regarding the fillings, choose healthy and nutritious foods such as extra virgin olive oil, avocado, tomato, hummus, cheese or egg, among others. You will only have to mount it and blow your tooth when you arrive at the office.
