Name: Apple Oatmeal

An apple a day as the saying goes so this is the perfect fruit to start the day. I decided that it would be the fruit of choice for my oatmeal breakfast. I later learned that apple is much better to wake you up compared to coffee. This explains why I was up and running the rest of the day. Plus, this recipe is so easy to prepare, so double win for me.

Name: Bacon Casserole

Layers, yes this is the trick to the casserole. This is also my tip for you. I cooked this recipe once by putting everything in one go into the slow cooker. It was good, but there were slices that had an uneven amount of the ingredients. Too much bacon on piece just eggs on another slice. If you have time, I would rather lay the ingredients one a time in layers so that you have a balanced casserole in the end.

Name: Bacon Browns

I cooked too much bacon for one dish that I was preparing, so I stock them in the fridge. The next day I had to make room in the fridge, so I had to use the bacon. I took them out of the container and noticed that some crumbled and became bacon bits. I suggest that if you encounter the same situation and need to recycle some leftover bacon, this recipe is the best way to make use of bacon bits.

Name: Breakfast Frittata

Artichokes is supposed to be a highly nutrient content veggie; the problem is my kids complain when it is served to them. They will grudgingly eat the veggie and end up not enjoying their meal. I decided to be sneakier on how to get this veggie into their meals, and a frittata is a way to do it.

Name: Meatball Soup

Something special for a rather cold breakfast morning, I wanted to reward myself for going so far with the diet and being so successful with my carb intake. A warm soup will be a great way to have breakfast. Plus, it was fun getting my kids to shape the ground beef into meatballs with our bare hands.

Name: Hazelnut Oatmeal

This is another good low carb alternative to oatmeal. If you have tried different combinations for your oatmeal, then maybe you should try adding hazelnut. This one balances the sweetness of the other ingredients with the earthy flavor of the nuts. I recommend you take this recipe for the latter weeks of the challenge.
