Breakfast generally looks something like this... I get out of bed and head over to the pantry. I pick out my favorite cereal, cover it with milk and enjoy. Although it was delicious, I might as well have just injected an IV of sugar straight into the veins. I'm guessing a lot of you, especially the millennials, share a similar experience because our parents are the postwar baby boomers. I kind of look at that generation as the dark ages of home cooking. It was really the first generation that just let factories and corporations completely take over their pantries/refrigerators and now we're here reversing this generational food trauma.
I think it's so important to get ourselves and our families off to a really good start in the morning and that's what this video is all about. I'm gonna be showing you four of my favorite breakfast options that are fail safe and customizable. They are nutritious and easy to make. Plus, I can guarantee no matter what age you are, everyone in your family will like these breakfast options. Click here to see the full video!

Being able to make a baked good is an essential skill because when you crave something sweet you are able to control what goes in as well as how much of it goes in. If you want a sustainable muffin option for the morning, you need to have quality ingredients and they can’t be too sweet. Well, I'm here to tell you that these muffins hit the spot. My kids love them and they give me and my wife a good amount of protein from the yogurt and eggs.These muffins are super forgiving so they are the perfect muffin to practice your baking skills on.
