Eating breakfast away from home can fit into a healthy lifestyle with the right choices, although most fast food chains offer limited options for breakfast as compared to other meals. Follow these tips for a healthy breakfast:
- Ask for scrambled eggs or an egg substitute omelet.
- Ask for butter, margarine, or syrups on the side and not added to food.
- Drink low fat dairy products -- skim or 1% milk.
- Drink 100% vegetable and fruit juices.
- Choose hot or dry cereals with skim or 1% milk.
- Choose dry toast, English muffins, and bagels instead of croissants, danishes, and donuts.
