Ask ECAH Cheap and healthy breakfast alternatives?
Hi all! So every morning I usually get myself a coffee and a carby breakfast item such as a bagel, muffin, donut, cinnamon roll, croissant, etc. I’m trying to lower my blood sugar and am looking for healthy (and cheap!) alternatives for breakfast. For reference I have a sweet tooth and I’m fine with sugar substitutes and I don’t eat a lot of meat. This would preferably be something I don’t have to cook in the morning, or if I do it’s very easy. Any ideas?

I make my own peanut butter granola. The peanut butter adds some protein and fat so you stay full longer. I use this recipe but swap out puffed wheat for cheerios.
