When asked why breakfast is their favorite meal of the day, many people will talk about the diversity of dishes. Among the range of flavors, anyone can find something to their liking. A common dividing line on the menu separates sweet breakfast foods from savory. Fortunately, no matter which you prefer, you can make the meal healthy and energizing.

Sweet

People indulge in a sweet breakfast for a number of reasons. If you had a dinner of steak and vegetables the previous night, a delicious bowl of fruit and Greek yogurt may sound even more appealing. Pastries can also serve as a next-day dessert.

However, eating a sugary breakfast can be unhealthy if you choose processed cereals, artificially flavored yogurts, and pre-packaged pastries. Instead, order dishes served with berries rich in antioxidants and fiber-loaded grains to help with digestion.

Savory

A savory, well-balanced breakfast can also help you avoid sugar crashes later and address several nutritional needs at once, setting a healthy eating foundation for the rest of the day. However, when consuming a filling, salty breakfast, make sure to drink water to stave off dehydration. Drink at least eight 8-ounce glasses of water each day.
