This recipe is presented by Eggland’s Best. It’s kinda like pizza, but not. We know toast is the thing lately because it’s simple and flexible to whatever mood you’re in or whatever ingredients are in your kitchen. The Italian Style Breakfast Toast is a guilt-free way to incorporate pizza into breakfast, or eggs and toast into your lunch or dinner —however you choose to look at it. The recipe doesn’t take much, but it’s surely more interesting than plain ol’ bread and butter.

This recipe is presented by Eggland’s Best. This is one of those recipes in which you throw everything into a casserole dish, refrigerate, bake, and voila! French Toast Strata, a special occasion breakfast or brunch centerpiece. The hardest part may be remembering to mix the ingredients ahead of time so you can refrigerate the dish between 2 hours and overnight. The easiest part? Savoring the sweet results.

This recipe is presented by Eggland’s Best. The ingredients are the same as a traditional breakfast of eggs, toast, and bacon, but this recipe is anything but ordinary. Transform your toast by de-crusting it, rolling it flat, and giving its bottom a slick maple-butter coating. When you bake the eggs correctly, each serving should offer the chance for a fork to pierce the yoke and send the golden liquid running.

This recipe is presented by Eggland’s Best. Is it breakfast or is it dessert? Is it Italian or French? Who cares, when it’s so delicious? For such a fancy fusion, the steps are relatively easy. Don’t forget to sprinkle your rolls with powdered sugar for the final flourish.

This recipe is presented by Eggland’s Best. This is a great idea for using your leftover mashed sweet potatoes from Thanksgiving or other holiday dinners. The savory pork sausage complements the maple syrup and allspice. And with old-fashioned oats and eggs, you’ve got a hearty, complete meal in a muffin.

This recipe is presented by Eggland’s Best. Everything is better in a bread bowl. Anchor this meal right by choosing the best, most crusty dinner rolls you can find. Larger bread will work too. This dinner is something kids will love, giving a whole new meaning to pizza.

A favorite pancake recipe of mine. This recipe went through vigorous testing to create an amazingly fluffy and light pancake. The olive oil addition is what creates such a moist cake. Olive oil can be replaced by melted butter, or even browned melted butter, for a richer flavor. Add fresh fruit or citrus zest to your completed batter to create other versions of this beauty.

This is a smoothie with a secret: a handful of fresh spinach leaves, a powerful source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber (in addition to the blueberries’ fiber and antioxidants) that provide tons of nutrition without tasting that way. It’s great for adults and kids alike. Serve with a spoon and scoop of Granola for a more filling, crunchy treat.

For many, being a teenager in the ’80s meant hanging at the mall and consuming as many cups of Orange Julius as possible. As a nod to this frothy, orangey drink, which remains one of the best takes on a smoothie ever, we created this recipe, a fancier homemade version of the original. For more healthy inspiration, check out our Fruity Smoothie, Healthy Blueberry Smoothie, and Apple-Lemon-Ginger Juice.

Greek yogurt gives this healthy smoothie a gently tangy edge, a great boost to your morning. To make it vegan, use almond milk in place of regular milk and replace the yogurt with coconut milk. We suggest making with our Granola recipe as a more filling option with an added crunch.

Time can be short in the morning, and you know breakfast is important. With overnight oats, you slap it together the night before and have it ready in the fridge to grab quickly and eat on the go. It’s a balanced, nutritious, homemade breakfast that’s delicious too: There’s fiber, protein, probiotics, calcium, and fresh fruit in this recipe. So much better than store-bought cereal.

Apple dumplings are an early American food stemming from the Northeast, especially in Pennsylvania Dutch towns. Of course, you could trace it even further to Britain and other parts of western Europe too. It’s a great dish during the apple harvest in the fall. And, you can serve apple dumplings for breakfast or dessert. Game Plan: First, you’ll need to make a pie crust. Use our Basic Pie Crust recipe.

Here’s a quick and simple spin on traditional hummus from Chef Dakota Weiss, Executive Chef and Partner of Sweetfin Poké and Estrella in Los Angeles. “I love this Cauliflower Hummus because it’s so tasty and it’s EASY to make. It has the basics of what a traditional hummus consists of, but with an extra added bite from the cauliflower and it’s so creamy!”

Are you surprised to see such a fancy dessert? Don’t be! Christina Lane made this one dairy-free and naturally sweetened so that she doesn’t feel badly about eating it for breakfast. And she tops it with fruit soaked in honey just because it tastes good. (Honey is acidic and it breaks down the fruit while it rests.) Lane used figs because summer was in full swing when she perfected this recipe, but mango and raspberries are great here too.

A bowl of creamy steel-cut oatmeal is a satisfying and healthy way to start the day, but the long cooking time makes these oats hard to execute on a weekday morning. Here, the slow cooker does all the work while you’re getting some shut-eye. Before bed, coat the inside of the cooker with butter to keep the oatmeal from sticking, then add in the oats, water, coconut or whole milk, and brown sugar. Stir it together, set the cooker to low, and wake up to a hot breakfast.

Why would you want to eat slop, you may ask? Well, if you’re a losing contestant on Big Brother, you have no choice (and probably fondly recall the days of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the “Have-Nots”). But if you’re in the mood for an easy, no-frills oatmeal that contains all your essential protein, vitamins, and nutrients, try making a big batch of Big Brother Slop to carry you through the week. At least you get to garnish it any way you want to!
