I often struggle with rushing out the door in the morning without grabbing something to eat. I have had this problem as long as I can remember. This changed when I started taking medication to treat my ADHD symptoms. Without a full meal, the duration and effectiveness of my morning dose would vary. I needed a solution.

I started doing meal prep once a week. Sometimes I make 4-5 days worth of breakfast burritos or a big batch of hash browns with veggies I had on hand. Healthy trail mix as a meal replacement is a good option if I'm in a rush (I like Power Up High Energy). It is ready to eat, doesn't require cooking or utensils, and is shelf stable at room temperature. I keep some in my work backpack and at my desk in case I miss lunch. What hacks work best for you?

I take mine an hour before I get out of bed, so absolutely nothing

I've been doing thos for about 25 years now. Works for me! Glad I'm not the only one.
