Recipe Box, Breakfast on a Stick!

Everyone in my family is pretty much a type “A”…we don’t sit around much…especially in the morning

Weekend mornings on the coast usually mean fishing, so I came up with this grab and go breakfast for the guys~

homemade Blue Raspberry Bread, rugala, donut holes, and blueberry bagels from the bakery

Spread whole wheat cinnamon raisin bread with almond butter to make sandwiches and cut into 1/6ths…you don’t want to cut them too small or they might not stay on the skewer

Spread bagels with cream cheese, I used low fat strawberry

Cut into 1/8ths

I cut the Blue Raspberry Bread into thick cubes, using the denser end pieces

and to keep things healthy, hahahahahaha, I cut the rugala in half

You can make them all the same as in this “Everything” kebab, that has a bite of all the ingredients

everything kebab thepaintedapron.com

Or you can customize

fruit kebab thepaintedapron.com

The “Fruit Lover”

the sweet tooth kebab thapaintedapron.com

“The Sweet Tooth”

Berry lover kebab thepaintedapron.com

“Berry Bonanza”

kiddie kebab thepaintedapron.com

And one for the kiddos made on a straw

straws thepaintedapron.com

Talk about eye candy!

breakfast kebabs 2 thepaintedapron.com

These can be prepped ahead of time too, you can make the sandwiches and bagels and refrigerate overnight

Cube the melon ahead or buy it already cut,  and just quickly assemble in the morning

I suppose I could just hand them a hard boiled egg, but that wouldn’t be nearly as much fun!

So many possibilities here, this concept is perfect for those hectic back to school mornings, and would be a fun addition to any brunch or buffet...

I am already thinking about lunch on stick~hmmmmmmm……

We also had some great dinner kebabs over the weekend, Chicken and Smoked Sausage with Peaches and Apricots…they were pretty swoonworthy,  so I will be back with that recipe soon!

Thanks for having breakfast here today!
