I love a good breakfast sandwich! But I don’t like one that is full of sausage, bacon, butter and cheese and leaves me feeling stuffed and slowed down for the day. I’m busy girl and I expect a lot out of my meals — especially breakfast!
I think pita pockets are great for so many things, and I love them to tote around your power breakfast to go! Get the whole wheat versions for extra nutrition and let the fiber fill you up! This healthy breakfast recipe is easy to whip together in a few minutes, wrap up in some tinfoil and take on the go! There aren’t too many ingredients and nothing complicated or hard to find.
