A healthy breakfast means eating a variety of nutrient-rich foods that provide the energy and nutrients you need to start your day. Examples include whole grain cereals, fruits, vegetables, low-fat dairy products such as yogurt or milk, lean proteins such as eggs or tofu, nuts and seeds, and legumes such as beans. Other healthy breakfast options include oatmeal with fruit and nuts; a smoothie made with yogurt and fruit; whole grain toast with nut butter; eggs cooked in a variety of ways (scrambled, poached or boiled); omelets filled with vegetables; Greek yogurt topped with fresh fruit; cottage cheese served with whole grain crackers; and protein-rich pancakes made from whole wheat flour.
