We’ve grown up hearing that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. So, why is it that roughly 31 million Americans skip breakfast every day, according to American market research firm NPD Group? One of the most prevalent reasons cited for skipping breakfast is time constraints. Particularly, adult females are more likely to skip their morning meal rushing to get out the door.

Lucky for you, our arsenal of recipes includes numerous breakfast meals that come together in a snap. Enjoy a breakfast of champions and still manage to beat the clock with the following collection. Plus, read to the end for our favorite Clean Eating approved packaged breakfast foods:

Bites

Ricotta Breakfast Toast, 10 minutes

Toast topped with tasty goodies is a great way to start the day, any way you slice it. And you can always fall back on the egg-and-avo classic (we have a recipe for that too). But we’re deviating from the norm with this ricotta spread topped with pear and almonds. Simply stir together the sweetened ricotta base and top with fruits and nuts.

Yogurt Parfait with Melon & Chia Seeds, 5 minutes

This sunny summery bowl is the picture of good health. In five minutes, toss together some full-fat plain Greek yogurt with sweet honeydew and crunchy nuts and seeds. We opt for almond and chia in this healthful mix. But you can just as easily mix and match with the toppings you have on hand.

Quick & Easy Breakfast Quiche, make ahead

Admittedly, this make-ahead recipe doesn’t come together in a snap at the start of your day. However, it only takes 25 minutes to craft these truly delicious cheesy veg-packed bites the night before. Simply grab, heat and go!

Bevvies

Banana Coconut Chocolate Smoothie, 5 minutes

You read that right — we’re eating chocolate for breakfast today. This protein-rich smoothie is boosted with cannellini beans, powered by spinach and sweetened with banana. Simply dump all ingredients into a blender and whirr into a creamy mix for a liquid breakfast in five minutes.

Matcha Smoothies, 10 minutes

Caffeine-lovers know that a morning cuppa is key, but it can be hard to squeeze in both a breakfast bite and bevvy. That’s why we crafted this two-in-one matcha smoothie. This silky drink includes more than just caffeine-rich and concentration-boosting matcha. It’s also packed with potassium-rich banana, vitamin-dense spinach and hemp hearts for improved cardiovascular health.

Mango Carrot Smoothie, 5 minutes

This bright orange bev guarantees a cheerful start to your day. Its unique combo of mango and carrots is full of beta carotene and vitamin C. Mixed with a creamy base of plain Greek yogurt and tinged with honey and cinnamon, simply dump all ingredients into a blender and mix into a sweet, colorful, nutrition-packed smoothie.
