What Easy Breakfasts to Make as a Stay at Home Mom?

While I do my meal planning for the week, I always focus on having a balanced diet that has its fair share of vegetables & fruits in it. I also make sure to have at least apart of the meal as raw. For breakfast, it is always some fruits cut or in the form of a smoothie, which is on the table.

And this is the rule we follow even on our holidays and vacations. This is a pic of one of our holidays and my little one sitting on the table waiting for his strawberry banana smoothie & cheese omelette to reach him.
