Hot Breakfast Month: Healthy Recipes to Update Breakfast Classics
Most of the time, breakfast favorites such as pancakes and waffles get put in the not-so-healthy food category. Depending on how you make them and what you layer on top, they could become more of an indulgence than a well- balanced meal. Did you know that you can easily incorporate Juice Plus+ Complete Shake mix in to your favorite pancake or waffle recipe? In honor of Hot Breakfast Month, we have compiled a few recipes to give your morning favorites a boost with fruits and veggies:
Maple Peanut Banana Bread Waffles
If you love banana bread, then this is the breakfast for you! This recipe combines the warm filling satisfaction of banana bread with a protein packed punch of peanuts. Bananas are packed with potassium, which helps to lower blood pressure and prevent muscle cramps. Add a scoop of Juice Plus+ Complete Shake Mix to add a healthy dose of protein and fiber.
Strawberry Banana Pancakes
Since it’s Hot Breakfast Month, why not substitute your favorite strawberry banana smoothie with hearty strawberry banana pancakes. Strawberries help boost immunity, promote eye health, and reduce inflammation. By substituting Juice Plus+ Complete Shake Mix for the protein powder listed in the recipe, you will not only receive the benefits of strawberries and bananas but a low-glycemic, gluten-free nutritional mix.
Quinoa Cakes
Quinoa isn’t an ingredient to save only for dinner time! Try integrating the grain into your breakfast routine by making this Quinoa Cake recipe. Benefits of this superfood include being high in both protein and fiber, all while being gluten- free. Complete your morning cakes with Juice Plus+ Complete Shake mix, the all-natural blend that is naturally low fat.
Change up your routine and don’t be afraid to remake classic recipes to be healthier with the help of Juice Plus+. What are ways you use to make your favorite hot breakfast healthier?
