Customer Reviews

An interesting set of ideas for breakfast.

About half of the book is nutritional and other information about breakfast that seems geared towards those trying to change their current diet -- Why Breakfast?, Breakfast for Kids, The Breakfast Formula, Shopping Guides, and Recipe Modifications. It may be of limited value for those who already eat healthy foods and are just looking for new recipes. There are over 100 recipes, many of which I would classify more as ideas than "recipes", e.g., Pear Honey Butter consists of mashed canned pears mixed with honey. Most are indeed quite easy to prepare, although quite a few like Appleberry Sauce and Mandarin Orange Topping aren't meant to be served alone. By the time the pancakes, waffles, or french toast are made to serve with them, breakfast isn't really "Super Quick" anymore. The majority of the recipies are vegetarian. Most are suited for breakfast with the family rather than something you would want to serve to guests. Overall, the recipies provide a lot of interesting ideas of ways to spice up your usual breakfast -- something new to put on toast or mix with your oatmeal that you may not have thought of before. I've tried about 90% of the recipies and almost half of those I would make again.

Good approaches to nutritious fill-you-up breakfasts!

I enjoyed the meal plans and the nutrition section was very entertaining and informative. A must for anyone who wishes to eat breakfast in a healthful way.
