Everyone knows that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. As an adult it can be hard to make yourself sit down and eat when you have so much to do. As parents we know how hungry our kids are the second they hop out of bed and how important breakfast is for their growing bodies. Easy breakfast recipes will help get your entire family off to a great start.
Breakfast is one of the easiest meals to cook. It is also one of the easiest meals to teach your children how to cook. Our family keeps backyard chickens so we always have an abundance of farm fresh eggs. My kids have been cracking eggs since they were two and could whip up a batch of scrambled eggs in kindergarten!
Now, cooking bacon and breakfast meats is one of the last things they learn how to cook because of all the grease. Yet there are many different types of breakfast recipes that you can teach them how to cook. These are also super fun to do together as a family and create some really sweet memories.
