Skinny Avocado Egg Scramble: This fulfilling breakfast only takes 10 minutes to prep and cook, and it adds a ton of flavor to the simple scrambled egg. The best skinny trick for eggs is to mix two egg whites with one whole egg. The egg yolk from the whole egg is able to flavor the egg whites and provide the yellow color we know and love, all without adding the fat.

Autumn Apple Oat Bars: These bars can easily fool your kids into thinking they’re having apple pie for breakfast! They will never know that they’re actually eating a natural brain booster filled with fiber and nutrition. Natural sweetness of all the ingredients is just enough to mask any “healthy taste.” The apples and cinnamon pair perfectly, and if you warm this up for about 12 seconds in the microwave, you may truly believe you’re eating a freshly baked apple pie!
