Studies show that people who eat breakfast have an easier time concentrating, are less likely to overeat during the course of the day, and have more strength and endurance in the late morning. There is also evidence that eating breakfast revs up your metabolism and increases the rate at which your body burns calories all day long.\u003cbr\u003eIf you don't have time to eat because you don't want to sacrifice sleep time, you may be onto something. The scientific literature on sleep points out that getting enough shut-eye also plays a big part in how a person feels and performs. To be alert, think clearly, and feel energetic, it may be necessary to eat breakfast and get a good night's sleep. The following fast-food breakfast ideas can help you do both.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBreakfast on the Go\u003cbr\u003e*       Spread a bagel with natural-style peanut butter.\u003cbr\u003e*       Morning is an ideal time to eat beans. They are protein-packed powerhouses that provide energy for hours. Cover a warm flour tortilla with refried beans, spoon on salsa, and roll it up for an easy carry-along meal. Top whole-grain toast with a helping of baked beans or chili.\u003cbr\u003e*       When you make whole-grain pancakes or waffles, make more than you need; freeze the extras and reheat them in a toaster for a fast meal.\u003cbr\u003e*       Cook more for dinner to create on-purpose leftovers, and eat them for breakfast.\u003cbr\u003e*       Whip up a fruit smoothie.\u003cbr\u003e*       Sip a cup of warm miso soup.\u003cbr\u003e*       Just about any fresh fruit can be eaten without utensils on the run.\u003cbr\u003e*       Enrich ready-to-eat cold cereal by adding sliced fresh fruit and nuts or seeds.\u003cbr\u003e*       Make a pot of hot cereal in the evening and refrigerate it. In the morning, spoon out a portion and reheat it in the microwave.\u003cbr\u003eOn those days when time permits some inventiveness in the morning, or there is a chance to share the pleasure of breakfast with friends, you'll find plenty to eat in this chapter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCereal Thriller--\u003cbr\u003eIrish Oatmeal with \u003cbr\u003eApple Raisin Topping\u003cbr\u003ePREPARATION TIME: 20 MINUTES\u003cbr\u003eMAKES 2 SERVINGS\u003cbr\u003eCorporations spend hundreds of thousands of dollars each day advertising rolled oats, so it's no surprise that's what most people choose. Fabulous Irish oatmeal is one of breakfast's best-kept secrets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2 cups water or soy milk\u003cbr\u003e1\/2 cup Irish oatmeal (steel-cut oats)\u003cbr\u003e1\/8 teaspoon salt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApple Raisin Topping (recipe follows)\u003cbr\u003eBring the water to a boil in a saucepan. When the water boils, add the oats. Cook, uncovered, on medium, stirring occasionally for 10 to 15 minutes, or until creamy. Add the salt, lower the heat to medium-low, and continue cooking for 10 minutes (or to desired consistency), stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. To ensure a rich, nutty flavor, avoid overcooking. Remove from the heat and set aside for 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with Apple Raisin Topping.\u003cbr\u003eVARIATION: For variety and something extra, add 1\/4 cup well-rinsed quinoa to the pot when you add the oats. Quinoa contributes a unique flavor along with extra calcium and B vitamins.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApple Raisin Topping\u003cbr\u003ePREPARATION TIME: 15 MINUTES\u003cbr\u003eMAKES 2 SERVINGS\u003cbr\u003eThere is no more heavenly aroma in the world of cooking than apples mixed with cinnamon.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1 apple, quartered, cored, and cut into bite-size pieces\u003cbr\u003e1\/4 cup raisins\u003cbr\u003e1 teaspoon brown or white sugar, or natural sweetener\u003cbr\u003e2 tablespoons orange juice, apple juice, or water\u003cbr\u003e1\/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn a medium pot, combine the ingredients; bring to a low boil and simmer on medium-low heat for about 10 minutes, until the apple pieces are soft, stirring occasionally.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOatmeal\u003cbr\u003eSteel-cut oats--also called Irish oatmeal--are made from unprocessed oat groats that have been cut into pieces with steel blades. They take about 20 minutes to prepare. When you want oatmeal with amazing flavor and a chewy texture, steel-cut oats top the list.\u003cbr\u003eRolled oats--also called regular or old-fashioned oats--are made from oat groats that have been steamed and flattened with giant rollers. They take about 10 minutes to prepare and make a substantial, creamy bowl of oatmeal.\u003cbr\u003eQuick-cooking oats and instant oats take only a few minutes to prepare, but they turn into something more like wallpaper paste when cooked, and they're better left on the supermarket shelf.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWalnut and Fig Old-Fashioned Oatmeal\u003cbr\u003ePREPARATION TIME: 10 MINUTES\u003cbr\u003eMAKES 1 SERVING\u003cbr\u003eA bowl of steaming oatmeal is the ideal medium for topping with sliced fresh fruit or bits of dried fruit. Bananas are a good choice because they're cheap and available year-round. This recipe includes dried figs, a fruit high in calcium.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1 cup water\u003cbr\u003ePinch of salt\u003cbr\u003e1\/2 cup rolled oats\u003cbr\u003e1 or 2 chopped dried figs\u003cbr\u003e1 to 2 tablespoons toasted walnuts, chopped*\u003cbr\u003e1 to 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup (optional)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBring the water and salt to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat. Stir in the oats and reduce the heat to low. Cover and gently simmer for about 5 minutes, until the oatmeal is smooth and creamy, stirring occasionally to keep the oats from sticking. Remove from heat and stir in the figs. Cover and let rest for 2 to 3 minutes. Spoon the oatmeal into a bowl, sprinkle with walnuts, drizzle with maple syrup, and serve.\u003cbr\u003e*NOTE: Place the nuts in a small, dry skillet over medium heat. Stir the nuts or shake the pan constantly for 3 to 5 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly browned. Remove the nuts from the skillet immediately to stop the cooking process. Nuts can be toasted ahead of time and will keep in an airtight container for one to two weeks in the refrigerator, or for one to three months in the freezer.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e3-Minute Microwave Oatmeal\u003cbr\u003eFor 1 serving of regular or old-fashioned oatmeal, put 1 cup water and 1\/2 cup oats in a large 4-cup or larger microwavable container. Oats get rowdy in a microwave and can boil over, so make sure you use a big container. Cook on high for 21\/2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the microwave and let it sit until it's cool enough to eat. Stir before serving.\u003cbr\u003eIf you're wondering whether a container is microwave-safe, there's an easy way to test it. Pour 1 cup of water into the container. Place it in the microwave on full power for 1 minute. If the water gets hot and the container stays cool, it is safe to use. If the container gets hot, it may contain lead or metals and shouldn't be used in the microwave.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePineapple-Ginger Oatmeal\u003cbr\u003ePREPARATION TIME: 5 MINUTES\u003cbr\u003eMAKES 1 SERVING\u003cbr\u003ePineapple and the peppery taste of fresh ginger combine for an unusual breakfast.

Press for 15 minutes, then drain the expressed liquid from the bottom plate.\u003cbr\u003eToast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over moderate heat for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring as needed to keep them from burning, until they are fragrant and golden. Set aside.\u003cbr\u003eWash the chard and do not dry. The water that clings to the leaves helps them cook. Stack the leaves and roll them lengthwise into a long cigar shape, then cut the leaves crosswise to produce ribbons of greens.\u003cbr\u003eHeat the oil in a medium skillet on medium heat. Add the onions and sautŽ for 2 to 3 minutes, or until they begin to soften. Add the garlic, ginger, and chard. SautŽ until the greens begin to wilt. Cover and continue cooking for about 5 minutes, until the greens are just tender. Crumble the pressed tofu into the vegetables. Cook the vegetables and tofu, uncovered, for 4 to 5 minutes without stirring, until the moisture evaporates. Turn the mixture and cook for 2 more minutes. Turn off the heat.\u003cbr\u003ePour the sauce over the scramble and gently stir. Serve sprinkled with sesame seeds. Add a shake of red pepper flakes or a few drops of Tabasco sauce if you like.Author of Student's Vegetarian Cookbook","brand":"Clarkson Potter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46300634644709,"sku":"NP9780307336538","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780307336538.jpg?v=1767737459","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/students-go-vegan-cookbook-isbn-9780307336538","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
