Healthy Habits: Breakfast ideas for $1

If one of the healthy habits that you've chosen for 2010 is to start every day with breakfast, you'll want to try some of these healthy suggestions from cbsnews.com. All of them can be made for about $1.

1. Oatmeal This is a personal favorite. A serving of plain oatmeal costs as little as $0.16 and is only about 100 calories. Add a few table spoons of fruit and a half a cup of milk and you've got a complete meal for about a buck. You can always change up the grains to keep it interesting.

2. Breakfast Bagel or English Muffin Make your own Egg McMuffin but with more fiber and less fat. Use a whole wheat bagel or english muffin as the base and add an egg and a slice of reduced fat cheddar cheese. Add a salad and you've got a quick and delicious lunch or dinner.

3. Breakfast Burrito According to the Morning Show, these can be made ahead and even frozen. The breakfast burrito includes 1 tortilla, 2 eggs and 2 tablespoons of cheese and salsa. Get more fiber and less fat by choosing wheat tortillas and low fat cheese.

4. Yogurt Parfait The parfait includes 3/4 of a cup of yogurt, 1/2 cup of low fat cereal and 1/2 cup of fruit. If you haven't tried Greek Style yogurt, try it. If you sweaten it with just a little honey it's really yummy!

The trick to get all of these meals under $1 is to buy the ingredients in larger quantities. You could also look for coupons and specials at your local stores.
