10 Days of Breakfast at the Fresh Food Café

For many of us sleep deprived college students, waking up at 8 am is a struggle, but what’s even more challenging is our attempt to get a decent breakfast before class. However, here at Johns Hopkins, ranked number four in the best college in America for food, breakfast is a priority.

With the variety of breakfast must-have's offered at the Fresh Food Cafe, ranging from cage-free scrambled eggs to waffle machines, it is difficult to pass out on the most important meal of the day.

What most students don't realize is that with the right ingredients and plating, it is possible to have a different (and refreshing) breakfast combination every day. To prove my point, I helped lay out the next 10 days of breakfast plans for you.
