← Healthy Eating Guide

The best breakfast is one you'll actually eat. These 25 options are organised by time required — from 2-minute grab-and-go to 15-minute cooked options. All are high enough in protein to keep you full until lunch.

💡 The protein target: Aim for 25–30g protein at breakfast. This is the threshold that research shows meaningfully reduces hunger hormones and stabilises blood sugar through the morning. Most "healthy" breakfasts (toast + jam, fruit, cereal) fall well short of this.
