20 Easy High-Fiber Breakfast Recipes for a Busy Morning
Start your morning with a simple, high-fiber recipe. Each serving is packed with at least 6 grams of fiber, which has been linked to health benefits such as promoting bowel movements and reducing the risk of heart disease. And as a bonus, this breakfast takes 15 minutes or less to make, helping to make eating healthy even easier. Recipes like Salsa-Topped Avocado Toast and Chocolate-Coconut Breakfast Banana Split are filling and healthy.

Whip up leftovers from taco night on this easy salsa-topped avocado toast for a quick snack or use it as a springboard for breakfast by adding an egg on top. Single-use packages of mashed avocado or guacamole can stand in for fresh avocado.
Chocolate-Coconut Breakfast Banana Split
Eating dessert for breakfast has never been easier, thanks to this twist on the old girls’ split. We’re swapping out condensed yogurt (eg, Greek style or skyr) for the ice cream, but you’ll still get the same ice-cream-scoop look because the consistency of the yogurt helps keep its shape better. Additionally, condensed yogurt is high in protein for energy storage. Pineapple and coconut suggest tropical girls.
Coconut-Mango Oats
Serve oats with this quick, five-minute breakfast recipe. Adding toasted coconut, vanilla extract and fresh (or frozen) mango adds a lot of flavor. We’re using oat milk here, but feel free to replace it with milk or any other plant-based, sugar-free milk.
Egg cereal bowls with spinach and fried eggs
Wheat berries, a nutty grain with a chewy texture, are the foundation of this delicious breakfast recipe. Fiber-rich whole grains freeze very well, so make a batch to store in salads, casseroles, and more. Topped with spinach, nuts and an egg, these bowls make a satisfying breakfast. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper for extra heat.
Cherry, Beet and Kale Anti-Inflammatory Smoothie

Kale, cherries and beets combine in this powerful anti-inflammatory smoothie. These three fruits and vegetables contain unique anti-inflammatory compounds that may help prevent diseases associated with chronic inflammation, including cancer, heart disease, arthritis and diabetes.
Chickpea & Kale Toast
This healthy toast recipe combines peas, kale and feta for a delicious bite.
Anti-Inflammatory Lemon-Blueberry Smoothie

The kale, hemp seeds and green tea in this bright, lemony smoothie all contain antioxidants that can help fight inflammation. If you can’t find baby spinach, baby spinach will work well in its place. Banana adds natural sweetness. If you want it a little sweeter, just a touch of honey will do the trick.
Pepper Cheese and Egg Sandwich
Top with pimiento cheese and spinach, eggs and hot sauce for a satisfying breakfast sandwich that’s ready in just 10 minutes.
Cauliflower oatmeal
We’ll admit it, a breakfast cereal made with cruciferous vegetables sounds complicated—but our testers were pleasantly surprised by this hearty and delicious recipe! Flavored with cinnamon, vanilla and simply sweet, it’s a nutritious alternative to a whole grain bowl that adds a vegetable to your breakfast.

Start your day off right with this delicious smoothie packed with anti-inflammatory ingredients. Spinach provides antioxidants that help eliminate damaging free radicals, while raspberries contain polyphenols that have anti-inflammatory effects.
Breakfast Salad with Egg & Salsa Verde Vinaigrette
Salad for breakfast? Don’t knock it ’til you’ve tried it. We love how this meal gives you 3 cups of vegetables to start your day.
Egg-Avocado Sandwich
This fresh tasting breakfast sandwich comes together in just minutes. Pair sour avocado with pickled onions and sprouts for a hearty breakfast that’s full of flavor.
Kiwi-Granola Breakfast Banana Split
We’re taking a classic dessert and turning it into breakfast by swapping yogurt for ice cream. The consistency of thick yogurt (eg, Greek style or skyr) helps it retain its shape and mimic scoops of ice cream. In addition, it has more protein to keep it stronger than regular yogurt. Lots of seeds and nuts are a great way to counteract the mild acne.
Sweet oatmeal with tomatoes and sausage
Oats find new life in this hearty dish, serving as the backbone of a satisfying combination of sausage, vegetables, tomatoes and herbs.
Butter Pecan & Pear Toast
For breakfast or a quick snack, try this three-ingredient toast. The pecan butter adds a nutty flavor, balanced by the pear’s natural sweetness.
Raspberry Yogurt Cereal Bowl
For a healthy breakfast, snack or dessert, try using yogurt instead of milk for your cereal. If you’re making this as a snack, keep the grains separate and toast them before eating.
Microwave Poached Egg Breakfast
In Costa Rica, this popular breakfast dish is called gallo pinto, which means spotted rooster, which is a dark bean in brown rice. We’re calling it cooked barley here, but you can use any leftover cooked grain you may have.
Strawberry-Ricotta Waffle Sandwich
Here’s a delicious twist on a healthy breakfast sandwich. Other seasonal fruits, such as blueberries or roasted peaches, can also be delicious toppers.
Quinoa & Chia Oatmeal Mix
Make your own hot cereal with this healthy recipe. Keep it on hand and cook the amount you need when you’re ready for a hot breakfast. One serving of warm whole grains contains six grams of fiber—almost a quarter of the daily value.
