Eating the same few foods every morning can get boring pretty quickly. But at the same time, it can be difficult to dream up a delicious and easy meal when all you're trying to do is rush out the door to get to school on time. That's why I have compiled a list of the five most aesthetic breakfasts that will surely brighten your morning. Not only are these dishes tasty, but they are colorful and aesthetic, helping to romanticize those early mornings.
1. Toast With Berries
Up first, we have toast topped with berries. Berries are among the most aesthetic foods. They are bright and colorful and are guaranteed to romanticize your life. The versatility berries possess is another one of their best features. From raspberries to blueberries, there are all types of berries, and they can be used in a variety of ways. To make toast with berries, simply grab your favorite type of bread and lightly toast it. I suggest whole wheat bread or baguette. Next, layer your favorite spread—peanut butter, jelly, or butter—and then add berries on top. If desired, you can forgo adding a spread, but it helps stick the berries to the bread. I recommend toast with peanut butter and bananas or Greek yogurt and blueberries.
2. Avocado Toast
If you're a toast lover but want something more savory, avocado toast is a wonderful option. Not only is avocado toast incredibly easy to make, but with its attractive green color, it will surely liven up your mornings. To make avocado toast, begin by choosing your favorite bread and toasting it. While the bread is toasting, scoop out the avocado from its peel and place it in a bowl. Begin smashing it with a fork so it becomes spreadable. Next, spread the avocado on your toast and drizzle olive oil. I also recommend sprinkling Trader Joe's "Everything But The Bagel Sesame Seasoning Blend" on top. Overall, avocado toast is a great option if you're looking for a simple recipe that will help romanticize your life.
3. Smoothie Bowl
Smoothie bowls have become extremely popular on social media since they evoke such aesthetic appeal with their vibrant colors and bright toppings. Not only do they look beautiful, but they are also packed with nutrients to kick-start your day. To make a smoothie bowl, start by blending your favorite frozen fruits—such as bananas, berries, or mango—with a bit of yogurt or milk until you reach a thick, creamy consistency. Pour the smoothie into a bowl and have fun decorating it with toppings like granola, coconut flakes, chia seeds, and fresh fruit. You can even drizzle honey or nut butter for extra flavor. The best part about smoothie bowls is their endless customization, making them both a delicious and romantic, Instagram-worthy breakfast option.
4. Chocolate Chip Pancakes
There are few more delicious breakfasts than chocolate chip pancakes (or waffles). Packed with sweetness from the chocolate chips, these pancakes are perfect for when you want some added sugar in the morning. To make chocolate chip pancakes, start by preparing your favorite pancake batter—whether from scratch or a mix. Once it's ready, fold in a handful of chocolate chips. Then, cook the pancake, flipping once bubbles form on the surface. For an added touch, consider topping your pancakes with chocolate chips, maple syrup, or whipped cream. Overall, this chocolatey treat is a sure way to make your morning feel extra special!
5. Yogurt Parfait
For a final easy yet stunning breakfast, a yogurt parfait is a great choice. Yogurt parfaits layer creamy yogurt with crunchy granola and fresh fruit, creating a balanced and satisfying meal. To make one, start by adding your favorite yogurt into a glass or bowl. Then, add a layer of granola, followed by lots of fresh fruit such as strawberries, blueberries, or kiwi. Repeat the layers until you reach the top, and finish with a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of nuts. Yogurt parfaits are not only healthy but also delicious and will surely add some more appeal to your mornings.
Your mornings don't have to feel dull and repetitive; rather, with appealing breakfasts, you can make the morning your favorite time of day. So the next time you're only feeling so-so about the morning, consider making one of the breakfast dishes listed above to inject some brightness into your day!
