YOUR HOME AWAY 
Did you know that on average, Americans eat out 5.9 times a week? If you’re constantly on business trips, then those might be driving your stats up too!
Just because you’re traveling doesn’t necessarily mean you have to eat out every day. Not only can it get costly, but it’s not the best for your health either.
If you’re having an extended stay at a hotel, make sure you take full advantage of the mini-fridge, microwave, and kitchen if you have one. Here are 4 of the best travel breakfast ideas you can make to start off the day right every morning!
If you’re staying somewhere that has just a mini-fridge, then this is a fantastic breakfast idea. This is because you won’t have to cook anything, which means you can also get up, throw everything together in a few minutes, and still have a nutritious and filling breakfast.
Get yourself some plain yogurt, honey, fruit (such as strawberries, blueberries, or bananas), and grains. Mix all these ingredients up in a bowl and you have a quick and simple breakfast that’s done!
If you’re looking for easy travel breakfast ideas, this is it as well. All you have to do is put this yogurt mixture into a travel cup so you can eat while on the go.
However, if you’re having breakfast in the hotel, you can add some other simple things, even without a full kitchen. For example, get some bread and spread butter, margarine, or jam across. If you have a coffeemaker, start your day off right with a hot cup of java too!
The fruits you’ve bought to mix into the yogurt can also be eaten later on in the day as some quick fuel.
Next up on the easy breakfast ideas for traveling list is the microwave omelet. If you’re someone who needs to start off the day with a hot meal, but don’t have a kitchen in your hotel, this can do in a pinch.
Buy yourself some eggs, deli ham (or chicken), and some veggies. These can be spinach, bell peppers, green onions, red onions, yellow onions, etc. You can even buy some bacon and microwave it to crispiness.
Crack 2 eggs into a mug and use a fork to beat it. Throw in the other ingredients with some salt and pepper (crumble the bacon in if you’re using it), mix well, and microwave it for up to 3 minutes, depending on the microwave.
Halfway through the cooking time, remove the mug and stir it up. This ensures that everything is cooked and heated up well. At the end of the 3 minutes, you’ll have a hot and tasty omelet to eat!
Like with the above idea, you can also treat yourself to a side of bread with butter, margarine, or jam.
Do you love the McMuffin sandwiches from McDonald’s? Then you’ll want to try this out, since you won’t have to leave your hotel room to have this tasty breakfast.
To make a breakfast sandwich, you’ll need sausage patties, ham, eggs, milk, bacon, spinach, slices of cheese, and English muffins.
First, follow the steps to making a microwave omelet, except the ingredients are egg, milk, salt, and pepper. Change the microwave time to 2 minutes.
Then, you’ll want to microwave your bacon strips until they’re crispy. Lastly, microwave your English muffins, sausage patties, and ham.
Now, you’re ready to assemble the entire breakfast sandwich. To get the egg out, loosen it with a knife and then invert it onto the English muffin. top with the sausage patties, bacon, spinach, and cheese slices.
What’s great is you can make these ahead of time and either refrigerator or freeze them. All you’ll need to do is microwave them for a few minutes before you want to chow down.
Do you have a full hotel kitchen at your disposal? Then take advantage of it and make yourself some delicious fluffy pancakes!
Put a twist on it with sweet potato pancakes, as these add nutrition and will also fill you up more. What’s great is they’re not complicated to make either, which means that when it comes to healthy travel breakfast ideas, this one’s super quick to make.
All you’ll need is a roasted sweet potato and eggs. If you want to dress it up a little, get yourself some cinnamon, Greek yogurt, and maple syrup too.
Once the roasted sweet potato has cooled down, peel and mash it. Whisk in the eggs and the cinnamon if you’re using it.
Next, heat up a pan and spray it with cooking spray. Put around 1/4th of a cup of batter onto the pan and let it cook for 5 minutes. Then, flip it and cook for another 5 minutes.
If you’ve decided to dress up your pancakes, mix together the Greek yogurt, cinnamon, and maple syrup. Then, put this mixture over your pancakes for some added flavor.
Since you have a full kitchen at your disposal, feel free to add things like toast, bacon strips, and scrambled eggs for a full and hearty meal.
