What breakfast looks like for my 13 yr old

A few days ago I posted Tyler's brekky in my stories because I get tons of questions about what I feed my kids for breakfast. Matthew is 9 yrs old and my carb kid...he could live on bread, pasta, cereal, oats (this is a new addition) and tortillas forever and life would be good (do we fault him???), so it's a struggle to sneak protein in. I will always opt for high protein options for this reason.

He picked out these “Egg’Wich” bun-less sandwiches at Costco and when I saw they had 17 grams protein, I BOUGHT TWO! However, when it came time to eating them, he realized it’s not a McDonald's Egg McMuffin (with bread on both sides) and can't be bothered to eat it. But, those that know me know we don’t waste food and I don’t make different meals for each family member, my motto is “Eat it or Starve”. Might sound harsh, but my pediatrician taught me this early on in motherhood and Bless Her. I’m so thankful she did.

Tyler (my 13 yr old) loves these and will happily eat the entire box if I let him. I would choose these for my pwn breakfast except "spices" as an ingredient is too vague and could have garlic and onion, which I’m allergic to.

Here's what I look at... NOT THE PICTURE (although that sold Matthew ). Flip it around and see that the first ingredient is EGG and second is Sausage. YAY for both of those being "whole ingredients" and not Sugar or Starches.

Then, the macros. If you're following portion fix containers (if you aren't message me and I can get you started, it makes things super simple and it's how I coach ALL my nutrition clients - macro eating) these are 1R, 1B. 17g protein, 3g carbs, 12g fat, only 1g sugar (and it's not "added sugar" - WIN) and 190 calories. Still low enough calorie to put this on top of Dave's Killer "thins" which gives you another 80 cal, 4g protein, 3g fiber, 3g sugar and only 2g fat. This is a solid breakfast choice and can be ready in 3 min flat from freezer to plate! No one is too busy for that and you're only adding 1Y to the combination!

Life Shake is always a great option and both my boys drink it, but make sure you add additional food to it so you get more calories. Generally you want to eat at least two, or more, containers together for a meal. So adding ½ a banana (I add a full for my 13 yr old and my husband), frozen zucchini, frozen cauliflower, PB2, etc will make it more calorie dense to hold you over. With 20 grams protein, you don’t need to focus on more of that.

Make sure your brekky is enough calories to sustain you until lunch with at least 300 calories.

Autumn Date Night Ideas

Autumn is here (per the calendar, sure doesn't feel that way).  With all the time we've spent at home lately, getting out and having some (safe) fun can be rejuvenating.  Grab your partner, friends, kids, or even pets, and pick an idea from the list I shared.  Let me know what was the most fun and tag me on Insta @eat.sweat.pray! 

We've started doing “day dates” so it isn't just movies and dinner all the time, so corn maze, apple picking, and carving pumpkins look fun to me.  Normally I'd chose baking, but with all the sugar this season, I'm not brave enough to test my willpower!!

Apple Cinnamon Overnight Oats

Overnight oats are one of my favorite breakfasts for fall - and this recipe has all the best autumn flavors! Plus, it’s high in protein and fiber, so you stay full all morning! Bonus: it tastes like dessert, I’m here for that!

Chocolate Recover Shake

After you’ve done your actual cooldown, what is your post-workout routine?

For me, I like to make my Recover shake (cools me down, literally) while checking in here! Recover speeds muscle recovery, combats exercise-induced muscle soreness, reduces muscle breakdown, and improves your muscle strength recovery. The fact that it tastes like a Frosty is an added bonus 🤣 If you’re in a rush, you can just “shake” it up in your blender bottle that you got free with your order, but if you have 60 seconds, blending it is OH-SO-GOOOOOOD!!

Here’s my current go-to recipe to cool down post-workout!

Ingredients

• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or soy milk)

• 1 scoop Chocolate Recover (I use vegan formula so it’s dairy free)

• ½ large banana (for men, use 1 full banana post-workout)

• 1 cup frozen cauliflower

• 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

1. Combine almond milk, Recover, banana, cauliflower, and cinnamon in a blender; cover and blend until smooth. That’s so stinking easy, amiright??

Yield: 1 serving.

Portion Fix Containers: 1 Green, 1 Purple, 1 tsp (does not count as a Red if you drink it within 30 m minutes of exercise. any other time it is 1 Red)

2B Mindset: For more information on how to incorporate Beachbody Performance into 2B Mindset, see the “2B Mindset and Exercise” video in the 2B Mindset Program Materials section on BOD - incorporating Recover will vary based on the intensity of the program you’re doing!

Ingredients

• 2 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk

• 4 tsp honey

• 1 tsp ground turmeric

• ¼ tsp ground cinnamon

• Extra ground cinnamon to sprinkle on top!

Instructions

1. In a small pot, add almond milk, vanilla, honey, ground turmeric, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom over medium-high heat.

2. Whisk together and bring ingredients to a boil; then, reduce heat to low and simmer for 3-5 minutes to reduce the mixture, stirring occasionally.

Cocoa Nut Butter Protein Balls

These are sooo easy and can be modified however you want if there are allergies!

Ingredients:
- 5 cup QUICK oats (old fashioned requires more sweetener IMO)

- 1 cup any Creamy nut 🥜 butter (just make sure it’s clean and there’s no added sugar or oil)

Yogurt, Shakeology powder, loose granola on top! 1.5R, 2Y, 2 tsp

- ¾ cup sweetener of choice (I combined local Honey🍯 and Pure Maple Syrup)

- ½ cup cocoa

- 2 scoops / packets Shakeology (any flavor and either whey or vegan will do)

** if for a kids’ class, you could switch 1 cup of Oats with 1 cup Rice Krispies for a crunch

**other modifications can be diced cranberries, nuts, coconut or chocolate chips. These will require more sweetener to make it sticky enough to hold, so instead swap out ½ cup Oats for these modifications.

Directions:
1. Mix together with a mixer or you’ll get an arm workout too. It doesn’t matter which order you add ingredients, I mix once all are in the bowl.
2. Roll into balls (24-30), or put in a 13x9 pan and make bars (yields ~20-22 bars depending on thickness).

Serve with plain greek yogurt for breakfast (see above) with 2 - 3 balls (these are sweet enough so you don’t need a sweetened yogurt like Vanilla, and then you forgo the additives that aren’t great for you anyways). You can also put additional Shakeology in your yogurt and stir together before topping with loose granola, or crumble a few balls.

For lunch these can be a healthy carb (2-3 balls), or for snack (kids 4-5 balls, adults 2). These are heavier than my 21-Day Fix Granola Balls so I limit these to heavy fitness days like training, or days I work out for longer than 40 minutes.

Let me know how you like them! I find them very kid friendly!
