Last time, we talked about Simplifying Your Evening Routine.

Have you started putting any of that into place?

I know it can be a lot, especially when there is so much else going on in your life.

But really, it’s worth some time to put a good working evening routine into practice because in the long run it will save both your time and your sanity.

I told you that a good evening routine will simplify your mornings, and that’s true, but when you add a morning routine to the mix, you’ll wonder what to do with your extra time!

Two things that you should always remember:

  1. Stay hydrated throughout the day
  2. Eat some form of lean protein at each meal

So what can you do to get a healthy breakfast into your body ASAP?

Spend some time on the weekend to prep breakfasts and then toss them into the freezer. Pull one out and microwave as needed.

Here are some easy ideas:
