Check out that sunshine behind my breakfast! I picked up a single serving carton of OJ right after we got back from Jamaica and totally forgot about it. This morning I had a glass – so delicious! OJ just screams “it’s morning!”
With it – yogurt with wheat waffles, banana, chia seeds and sunbutter
Yogurt underneath!
Have a sunny Monday!
Michelle@PeachyPalate says
It is surprisingly here in Dublin today. Wasn’t so much this morning but it’s brightened up wonderful and the temperatures risen with it…I’ll be wearing a couple of lighter layers for my run this evening!
Jessica / Green Skies and Sugar Trips says
there really is nothing like OJ in the morning!!! It DOES say good morning like nothing else!!! 🙂
And I really need to just take the leap and try the sunbutter already 🙂
Janelle says
Yum looks amazing as usual kath ! Nothing like OJ every once in awhile ,I like the purple bowl , have a fantastic start to your week !
kathleen @ the daily crumb says
orange juice is so comforting with breakfast… brings me back to early mornings as a kid. my favorite was the real, fresh squeezed stuff when we would visit my grandma in florida. nothing better 🙂
Cait @ Beyond Bananas says
All I’ve been wanting for breakfast lately is yogurt with cereal.. and a nut butter of course! But I can’t remember the last time I had OJ!
Kaila says
OJ totally hits the spot sometimes! So refreshing!
Andrea @FrSeed2Stomach says
Picked up the sunflower seed butter from TJ’s and just wanted to let you know that I love it (and all the antioxidants – so much better for you than Peanut Butter!). BTW – I have to play catch-up and go back and read some of your older posts since I just got back from Jamaica, but I was dying to know where you stayed… not sure if you mentioned it in another post, so I’ll check, but would love to know how you liked it. We stayed at Sandals Grande Riviera in Ochos Rios and while it was lovely, I wasn’t impressed with the food.

Love that purple bowl!!Have a fantastic day Kath!
HRCK the Herald says
I really like orange juice, but the fact that it’s normally drunk so close to teeth-brushing time puts me off. I don’t think the orange flavor is enhanced by mint!
Krissy @ Shiawase Life says
Kinda jealous! No sunshine on this side o’ town!
KathEats says
Well the only sunshine here is in my glass!!
hoping to see a flurry!
Roxanne says
Be careful what you wish for….:)
Krissy @ Shiawase Life says
Flurry we received!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Allison says
We have had beautiful sunrises the past few days in NoVA- maybe it’s the spring like weather, I don’t know, but whatever it is I hope it lasts!
Molly @ RDexposed says
I need that table cloth.
Katie @ Talk Less, Say More says
Oh I like that purple bowl!! And the orange juice really does make it scream morning, but I’ll stick with my cup-o-joe in the morning! 😉
Gina @ Running to the Kitchen says
I have to have OJ every morning with breakfast or I seriously become a grump. I do half OJ/half water so it’s not so sweet and chug that first thing every day. Our freezer is literally half full with OJ containers because I buy like 6 at a time when they go on sale!
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table says
Juice is one of those things I never think to buy… but some fresh squeezed OJ sounds wonderful right now. especially the Vitamin C with all the sickness going around!
Lauren @ Oatmeal after Spinning says
I saw the wheat waffles at Whole Foods yesterday and contemplated them for a moment… but said no because my pantry does not need more cereal right now. And the serving size 3/4 cup? Really? 🙂
I was on an OJ kick when I first got my juicer, but got lazy because it’s such a pain to clean. I wonder if you can make it easier in the Vitamix…
KathEats says
Yeah but they are relatively low in calorie for a serving, so I usually just have two 🙂
Blessing @ Working Mom Journal says
Nothing like OJ to start the day. I had some myself not too long ago.
Khushboo says
I love orange juice…especially in the form of a screwdriver 😉
Estela @ Weekly Bite says
You make cereal look so pretty 🙂
Susan H. @ The Food Allergy Chronicles says
Sunny start to my day today…wacky winter weather here in my part of Southern Ontario. Dog sitting this week…had a quick run then took the dog for a lovely spring like walk…oh how I miss our dog! My boys are in heaven…although their allergies and asthma are back in high gear…their also back on antihistamines and puffers…they are not complaining! Looking forward to a long walk this afternoon to tire this puppy out!
VeggieGirl says
you always have such picture worthy breakfasts 🙂 And now I want OJ lol
Bee Goes Bananas says
Mmm looks delicious! I hope you have a great Monday morning!
Anna @ On Anna's Plate says
I’m loving your “purple and gold” color scheme this morning– are you rooting for the LSU tigers like I am tonight?!? 🙂
Katie @ Peace Love & Oats says
I rarely drink orange juice, but if I’m somewhere with fresh squeezed I just can’t resist! so delicious!
Hannah @ Eat, Drink and Save Money says
I always forget about orange juice in winter unless it has champagne in it! It just seems like such a good summer drink, but I really should go pick some up for the cold/ flu season.
Cait's Plate says
I really love OJ too and it’s never something I just have in the house so it’s always a treat when I get to have a glass 🙂
Lindsay @ Salt, Sun & Sanity says
I completely agree- orange juice totally screams “it’s morning”! Yesterday morning I was feeling woozy and faint when I got to work, even after I’d eaten a light breakfast, and something told me to drink a glad of OJ and sure enough, I felt like a completely new person!
http://www.saltsunandsanity.blogspot.com/2012/01/summary-sunday.html
I’m going to have to go out and buy some to have on hand 🙂
Stephanie @ Ultra Ambitious says
Yum! I had fresh squeezed OJ this morning and it will probably be the only sunniness I will see today considering it’s a pretty gloomy forecast.
Kavi @ Lab to Fab says
You’re right, that bright glass of orange juice certainly does say “good morning!” I’ve noticed that you add Chia seeds to a lot of your meals. What are the nutritional benefits?
The Mrs @ Success Along the Weigh says
Same to you! Enjoy your day.
Erin says
Pretty bowl! Where’d you get that one?
KathEats says
I don’t remember!!
Oh, an antique store!
Sarah says
I love OJ, it’s definitely a breakfast staple in our house.
Rebecca @ Naturally Healthy and Gorgeous says
What a great breakfast to start the day!
Averie @ Love Veggies and Yoga says
Have a great week, Kath! Those wheat squares look great every time you post them. I have to try them.
Angel7 says
It is sunny here, but probably cold outside–I have not been outside yet to know how it feels. I wish the snow would come!

Sarah@The Flying ONION says
I’m sure I’ve said this dozens of times, but this really is the pretties breakfast. Simplicity at its best. What a lovely way to start the day. 😀
I’ve been on an OJ kick lately, which is funny because I’m not normally a juice person at all. 😀
Cat @Breakfast to Bed says
I’ve been on a SERIOUS oj kick lately. Not ALWAYS mixed with vodka. Only sometimes.
Fran@ Broken Cookies Don't Count says
It’s so nice and I think we all feel better when It’s sunny!
Annette @ EnjoyYourHealthyLife says
OJ can be so tasty–I have to be in the mood though. Looks good!
Lexi @ Cura Personalis Foodie says
Orange you happy it’s Monday? 🙂
Vanessa Miller says
Hiya! I’m a first time visitor.
I agree with Gina; I like my OJ watered down or with seltzer. Yummy.
Chia seeds are new to me. So is sun butter. I’m intrigued 🙂
KathEats says
Welcome!!
TeenyLittleSuperChef says
Sometimes just a simple bowl of cereal and a glass of orange juice is all you need to start an awesome day. After so many mornings of standing over the stove waiting for oats to boil or pancakes to start bubbling, it’s nice to just pour stuff in a bowl and eat it right then and there, don’t ya think? I hope you continue having nice weather out there. It’s dreary and cold here. Woohoo for the Pacific Northwest. Any good soup recipes you could throw my way would be greatly appreciated 🙂
Kelly @ Vegolosophy says
Chai Seeds always make a meal better! 🙂 Hope you have a great Monday!
Kelli H (Made in Sonoma) says
I’ve totally been craving some OJ the last 2 days. I need to pick up some single servings!
Jo says
So funny to read this cereal described as “wheat waffles”…in Canada these are Shreddies! (A brand name obviously, but everyone calls them Shreddies no matter which brand you buy)
Lethal Astronaut says
That breakfast looks delicious.
I stopped eating breakfast when I got depressed a couple of years ago, and piled on a lot of weight. Now I’m back to eating it (my usual is a top quality muesli with some soy milk, and a piece of fruit for after if I’m still hungry), and feel a lot more energised.
I’m starting to understand how important breakfast is.
Kristen @ Change of Pace says
I love using yogurt instead of milk in my cereal. Delicious! Not really a fan of oj but my kids love it and it really does make it feel like morning!
Lauren @ What Lauren Likes says
Happy Monday 🙂
Angela says
I ordered Barney Butter on opensky. It is scheduled to be delivered today!!
Lisa (bakebikeblog) says
ooooh delish!
Sarah (I Dream of Beets) says
Beautiful photos as per usual! Now I want some cereal.
Stacy @ Say It With Sprinkles says
I’ve never been an OJ in the morning kinda gal…guess it takes up valuable coffee room, haha! =)
