Need toddler breakfast ideas

I have been having the worst time getting Lily to eat in the morning.  Yesterday she went to daycare without eating any breakfast at all. 

I have tried applesauce, toast, nutrigrain bars, all varieties of fresh fruit, yogurt and cereal.   I don't have time to cook something on weekday mornings or clean up a big mess.

    We do a lot of frozen waffles and pancake and also cereal--sometimes dry and sometimes with milk.  Also bananas or blueberries or some other kind of fruit, depending on what we're in the mood for.

  • Emma loves oatmeal lately.  She also really likes Cinnamon toast flavored mini waffles.  Think they're Eggo brand.  She adores those - she'd eat them every day if I let her.  She also likes cheese toast.  I've given in and made her a PB&J before, or a PB and banana sandwich.  I've also thought about making little mini omlets in muffin tins.  That way I can freeze them and reheat one at a time.

    We do scrambled eggs, trade joe's frozen french toast, or grits with cheese.
  • Instant oatmeal with fruit, hard boiled eggs (boiled earlier), french toast sticks (I make them on the weekend and freeze).

  • French toast sticks (frozen), frozen waffles, make muffins and freeze them, applesause and cinnamon toast, granola bars, cereal, oatmeal, hash browns, cheese toast, PB toast, yogurt
  • We do yogert and pancakes or waffles with fresh fruit, occasionally a pop tart if we are really pressed on time. Before she would eat a nutragrain bar I would give her the Gerber breakfast bars.  They were smaller and didn't have as strong of a flavor.  She likes dry cereal if she wants something in the car on the way to school or she will have Raisin Bran, Cheerios or Kicks with milk. On the weekends she will eat eggs over medium with toast and a waffle.  
  • My daughter hates pancakes and waffles.  Go figure that something sweet & yummy she spits it out.  I give her scrambled eggs and cereal in one of her snack cups so she gets the soft with the crunchy.  I don't have time to cook in the morning so I make the eggs the night before and give them a quick zap in the microwave in the morning, into the snack cup with the cereal and off we go.  She loves it!Yes
  • We have the same issue - it's tough to get DD to eat breakfast in the morning.  These days we ask her what she wants to eat.  Some mornings she'll have edamame for breakfast - or raw baby carrots.  Heck, to me, as long as she is eating something and it's got *some* nutritional value, it's cool.  Many mornings it's a cup of dry cheerios and that gets taken along to munch in the car on the way.
