Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day. It's something we don't question anymore- we just do it.
But with many people leading very busy lives, sometimes that early morning meal is a schlep and many would rather get some extra shut-eye time and then face the traffic, than to spend the 30 or so minutes making breakfast.
With that being said, with a little effort you can easily prepare a better breakfast to jump start your energy and your day.
Chef Diane Morrisey says this breakfast is as fun to make as it is to eat.
