Breakfast To Go


I usually just bring a hard boiled egg to work for breakfast (yes as my friends pointed out, I'm 'that girl' that brings and egg and stinks up the office), but occasionally I mix it up and make smoothies before work.  Until I get sick of the mess I have to clean up with the smoothies.  And every once in a while I want to branch out from my 2 old standby weekday breakfasts. This one caught my eye a while back on Tasty Kitchen.  I really enjoy the heartiness of these and the mixture of a bunch of different items.  These are a great fall back when I'm in a rut for breakfast ideas!

  1. Cous cous with fruit and yogurt? Not so sure about that one...did you taste it?

  2. I've made them several times and really enjoyed them! I was skeptical about the cous cous as well, but since it was made with milk, it tasted a little sweet and good with the yogurt & fruit!
