Ready for school to start? 3 healthy morning meals that are ready in minutes and good on the go



MILWAUKEE -- Let's face it -- school mornings can be a little hectic. But, if you're prepared, your kids can still get a balanced breakfast! Registered dietitian and cookbook author, Erica Cleven, joins Real Milwaukee with three meals you can make in minutes.

Chia Seed Pudding (with variations)


    Mix all ingredients together, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Serve with a variety of fruit, nuts and/or seeds.

    Waffle Iron Eggs and Hashbrowns


      1. Heat waffle iron on medium-high. Spray each side with non-stick cooking spray.
      2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Stir in potatoes, cheese and salt.
      3. Scoop a layer of the egg mixture onto the waffle iron. Spread to about 1/2 inch from the edge and close. Cook for 5 minutes. Remove waffle when golden brown.
      4. Eat immediately, or let cool and freeze for later. Reheat in a toaster oven for best results.

      Smoothie Packs


        Place fruit, greens and banana in a small Ziploc bag. Freeze. When ready to prepare, place frozen ingredients in a blender. Add liquid and seeds, if using. Blend until desired consistency.
