What are mornings like at your home or in your family? Long and leisurely? Hectic and frenetic? No matter what your family or their lifestyle looks like from day to day, fitting a healthy breakfast into each morning might be a challenge.

It doesn't get much simpler, healthier or quicker than this. Simply drizzle a small amount of olive oil onto some multigrain toast — the better the bread, the more nutritious this meal can be.

Here's one option if you're looking for a great recipe to follow, but this simple breakfast is easy to whip up on the fly. You can even add an egg or some red pepper flakes if you want variety and a little extra protein to go with the healthy avocado fats and fiber-packed bread.
