I’ve been enjoying reading the great ideas on the Frugal Friday post, so I thought I would take a turn posting some ideas.

These are links to breakfast recipes we’ve made that our kids love. They can all be made in batches and frozen for quick reheating later. We made many of these to prepare for Joseph’s arrival. I loved having them handy during this rough postpartum period when we’re exhausted. The kids are very NOT exhausted and for some crazy reason still expect us to feed them! All of the recipes could be made healthier (and probably less expensively) with substitutions, but I’m too tired lately to think about that. My sister makes her own sour milk to substitute for the buttermilk, you can decrease sugar and butter in the recipes by just a bit (healthier & cheaper!) and so on… play around with them, of course.

Buttermilk pancakes, Kit’s favorite to make.

Pumpkin pancakes with apple cider sauce.

Cream of wheat pancakes.

French toast sticks and “breakfast cookies.” The cookies are a granola bar adaptation.

Sweet bread or muffin recipe.
Vanilla yogurt for having with milk, yogurt or applesauce.

Enjoy!
