Breakfast on the Run Idea

Libbi has decided that breakfast at school is not what she wants. Usually she compromises for cereal. Occasionally she can talk her dad into breakfast at McDonalds. Well, since it's becoming more frequent, as well as expensive, I decided it couldn't be that hard to make. So yesterday we went on an adventure to make our own fruit and yogurt parfaits.

This is what we came home with:



All Natural Vanilla yogurt, fresh strawberries, oat and honey granola cereal, frozen raspberries, frozen blackberries and disposable cups with lids. I also got some snack size plastic baggies for granola and berries. This morning we took the lids off of our yogurt cups and the frozen berries had defrosted and we had runny pink yogurt juice. So tonight when we put our yogurt in our cups, we put a small amount of berries in another baggie that we can add in the morning. The thing I liked about this is that Libbi doesn't usually eat all of her yogurt, so this way I can give her exactly what she's going to eat without wasting a whole cup of yogurt. Try it...maybe it will work for you.
