|  |  |  | | BREAKFAST FOR CHAMPIONS |  | Reprinted from an article in the St. Paul Pioneer Press, 8-21-2008, titled: "For a winning start, try breakfast of champions," by Sharon Thompson.
Lexington, Kentucky, Nutritionist Patti Geil offers the following breakfast ideas for children who desire to be champions in athletics and/or academics:
* Fruit (bananas, strawberries or raisins) and milk on instant oatmeal.
* Iron fortified cereal and milk with banana slices.
* Peanut butter on toasted whole-grain bread or waffle or rolled inside a wheat tortilla.
* Cheese slices melted on whole-wheat toast.
* Hard-boiled egg sliced on an English muffin.
* Apple and cheese slices between whole-wheat or graham crackers.
* Bran muffin and yogurt topped with berries.
* Whole-grain waffle topped with fruit, nuts and ricotta cheese.
These ideas are from Sandra Bastin, nutrition and food specialist at the University of Kentucky:
* Add berries or other fruit to pancake batter. Grated carrot and zucchini work well too.
* Try baked bagel chips with salsa, made from fresh ingredients from the farmer's market.
* Broil a bagel topped with apple or pear slices, sprinkled with cinnamon and low-fat cheese.
* Use mashed avocado as a spread on bread.
* Add applesauce to a peanut butter sandwich.
* Try raw vegetables with a cottage cheese or yogurt dip.
* Add diced vegetables to a soft tortilla to make a vegetable quesadilla or a breakfast burrito.
* Add diced vegetables to an English muffin to make a vegetable pizza.
* Stuff pita bread with lettuce, tomato, cucumber and low-fat salad dressing.
* Try dipping strips of toast or waffles in applesauce.
* Add your favorite chopped vegetables to a quiche, omelet or frittata.
* Top an omelet with chutney or salsa, made from fresh fruits or vegetables from the farmer's market.
* Add fruit to your favorite muffin recipe.
* While 100 percent fruit juice is a good dietary choice, whole fruit contains additional dietary fiber.
* Bake or steam an apple or pear.
* Hot vegetable soup might be better than you think for breakfast.
