Ever since we were kids, it’s been drilled into our heads that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Even though it provides our bodies with the energy we need to make it until lunch, for some reason, fried foods tend to be the go-to option for the first meal of the day. If you’re sick of feeling sluggish from bacon, pancakes, and fried eggs, check out the 17 ways to eat fruit for breakfast instead. They may all not be completely healthy, but they’re certainly better for you than hashbrowns!
1. Roasted pears with maple ricotta cream stuffing
2. Yogurt and fruit in a cantaloupe bowl
For a savory kick, add salted pumpkin seeds.
4. Fruit-stuffed French toast
Okay, so this dish isn’t that healthy. But it’s better than eating French toast without any fruit, right?
5. Doughnut hole and fruit kebabs
6. Goat cheese crostini with blueberry and peach thyme salsa
8. Green smoothie bowl
9. Fruit and cottage cheese “bowls”
11. Fruit and quinoa salad with citrus poppy seed dressing
12. Protein bar fruit pizza
13. Yogurt and fruit popsicles
14. Coconut black rice breakfast pudding
15. Apple and peanut butter sandwiches
You can add whatever you’d like to the layers, but these ones have pistachios and dried currents in the middle.
16. Brown sugar baked peaches
17. Almond butter and banana open sandwich
Is it really a sandwich if there’s no bread and it’s not pushed together? Either way, this recipe looks delicious.

I love quinoa, so I’m going to whip up that quinoa fruit salad with poppy seed dressing ASAP. I always feel great…and then gross after eating sausage and eggs in the morning, so I need to start working these recipes into my daily routine. Which one of these dishes made your mouth water?
