View Recipe 05 of 22 Carrot Cake-Inspired Loaf Bread Photographer: Stacy K.

View Recipe 07 of 22 Mango-Turmeric Smoothie Photographer: Jen Causey, Food Stylist: Jennifer Wendorf, Prop Stylist: Priscilla Montiel Kick-start your mornings with this speedy smoothie packed with tropical fruit flavors. Its lively yellow hue is boosted by anti-inflammatory turmeric. Grate fresh turmeric with a microplane grater or use ground turmeric in its place.

View Recipe 08 of 22 Chole Puri (Chickpea Curry with Fried Bread) Photographer: Jen Causey, Food Stylist: Jennifer Wendorf, Prop Stylist: Priscilla Montiel Chole puri is a popular North Indian dish featuring a chickpea curry flavored with an aromatic mix of spices (chole) and served with deep-fried bread (puri). Instead of traditional deep-frying, we opt for a healthier approach by air-frying the puris. If you have a basket-style air fryer, be sure to place them in the center of the basket to prevent the circulating air from folding them as they cook. View Recipe 09 of 22 Copycat Dunkin’ Avocado Toast Photographer: Grant Webster, Food Stylist: Holly Dreesman, Prop Stylist: Joseph Wanek This copycat Dunkin’ avocado toast is inspired by the popular menu item.

It’s a quick and easy way to enjoy the flavors of the original without having to leave your house!

View Recipe 12 of 22 Breakfast Stuffed Peppers Photographer: Jen Causey, Food Stylist: Jennifer Wendorf, Prop Stylist: Priscilla Montiel Kick-start your weekend with these breakfast stuffed peppers filled with eggs, hearty beans, kale and taco seasoning. If the pepper isn’t laying flat when you are about to fill it, shave off a small piece from the back side (but not all the way through) to help the filling stay in place. View Recipe 13 of 22 Peach Pie Overnight Oats Photographer: Morgan Hunt Glaze, Prop Stylist: Priscilla Montiel, Food Stylist: Julian Hensarling These peach pie overnight oats are packed with the classic flavors of peach pie, featuring warming spices and layers of cooked summer-ripe peaches bringing dessert-like flavors to breakfast.

The drizzle on top adds nutty peanut butter flavor to every bite. If your peanut butter is lumpy, blend the custard filling in a blender to smooth it out. You can add chocolate chips or chopped nuts for extra flavor if you prefer. View Recipe 17 of 22 Spinach & Fried Egg Grain Bowls Photographer: Antonis Achilleos, Prop Stylist: Shell Royster, Food Stylist: Ruth Blackburn Wheat berries, a nutty-tasting whole grain with a pleasantly chewy texture, are the base of this hearty breakfast bowl recipe. The fiber-rich grain freezes very well, so cook up a batch to stash away for salads, bowls and more. Topped with spinach, peanuts and an egg, these bowls make for a satisfying breakfast. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper for extra heat. View Recipe 18 of 22 Brownie Batter Overnight Oats Photographer: Jennifer Causey, Food Stylist: Julian Hensarling, Prop Stylist: Christina Daley Love dessert for breakfast or breakfast for dessert? This brownie-batter overnight oats recipe is a delicious way to start or end your day. The melted chocolate shell on top is fun to eat, plus adds texture and sweetness.

View Recipe 20 of 22 High-Fiber Dragon Fruit & Pineapple Smoothie Bowl Photographer: Rachel Marek, Prop stylist: Holly Dreesman, Food stylist: Gabriel Greco This vibrant high-fiber smoothie bowl is as delicious as it is beautiful. Dragon fruit adds plenty of color, but doesn’t have a strong flavor, so the other ingredients can shine through. Pineapple is quite striking when paired with pepitas and bee pollen. Fizzy kombucha makes the texture of this easy smoothie bowl unique. View Recipe 21 of 22 Corn Pudding & Apple-Berry Parfaits Nate Lemuel These striking parfaits are made with two colors of corn pudding and berry compote. If you prefer, you can use just one type of cornmeal. Culinary ash, typically made from wood like juniper, is used in Native American communities as a source of nutrients like calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and zinc. These make a satisfying breakfast or not-too-sweet dessert. Enjoy them warm or chilled.
