Breakfast dining hall food got you down? Call it magic, but there’s creative fixes you can make on your own with that same old-same old they serve us every day.

This mixture has a ton of flavors and textures that go amazingly together, and will fuel your mornings. Grab a bowl of Stonyfield Banilla yogurt and add Honey Nut Cherrios and banana slices. Swirl in some peanut butter, sprinkle some cinnamon and voilà.

The ultimate Mediterranean morning meal, packed with protein. When you order your fried eggs on toast, ask for some melted feta, tomatoes and spinach. Now one press of the panini and you’ll be eating like the gods.

Like a taco salad, but for the early eaters. Put some scrambled eggs in a bowl and add beans, tomatoes, monterey jack cheese, and whatever else suits your fiesta. Top with sour cream or guacamole.

Breakfast Sundae

As long as it’s yogurt and not ice cream, it’s technically breakfast. Top a bowl of vanilla yogurt with raspberries and strawberries. Next add with luscious nutella or peanut butter with a chocolate drizzle, and in place of brownie crumbles add chocolate granola. Serve it in a glass bowl for extra sundae fun.

If you don’t have class till noon and you’re feelin’ some brunch, add tabouleh or even pesto to your panini. Order your fried eggs with your cheese of choice, and tomatoes. Then add tabouleh or pesto and presto.

For when PB & J just doesn’t cut it in the mornings, go for peanut butter with nutella or chocolate syrup. Add some bananas and press it in the panini maker. Can we eat these at every meal?

Who eats just the oats? Swirl brown sugar and a dollop of peanut butter into your bowl and garnish with a few banana slices. Yummmm.
