Weekday mornings can quickly turn into a race against time. To help the whole family get off to a good start, check out time-saving quick and make-ahead recipes, as well as ideas for simple, quick and filling lunches.
To Be Made in Advance
Granola bars, fluffy squares, and nourishing cupcakes are all morning snacks to make in batches. Since they have to be baked in the oven, plan to cook them in advance, especially since most of these preparations can be easily stored in the freezer.

No-cook oatmeal, also known as overnight oats, has grown in popularity in recent years. These satisfying mixtures—based on oatmeal, milk or a vegetable drink and a few garnishes (nuts, chia seeds, fruit)—can be made the day before. The ingredients, left to soak overnight, then take on a tender and creamy texture. This oatmeal option, eaten cold, is among the best allies of breakfasts on the go.

Breakfast Wraps: These are quick to assemble, easy to customize and hand-held. Not to mention that you can also make them in advance and even freeze them. These wraps can be topped with eggs, veggies, tofu, cheese, and even leftovers from the night before. A great example of a complete meal to reheat before leaving or once you arrive at the office.
Easy Lunch Ideas To Go:
- mini quiches
- sweet or savoury muffins
- yogurt in a jar, to garnish with granola or fruit

Homemade or store-bought waffles that are kept close at hand in the freezer are real allies to save time in the morning. Reheat them for a few minutes in the oven or toaster oven and accompany them with classic toppings such as fruit (ideally prepared the day before), compotes, jams or maple syrup.
