Need breakfast ideas, please help
So I’ve been working with a nutritionist lately trying to gain some weight, and she suggested I try some new things for breakfast. Looking for balanced ideas. Bonus points if they can be prepped the night before. I also have IBS (yay 😞) so I need something that’s relatively easy to digest. Thanks in advance!
