The Best Breakfasts for Every Back to School Occasion

Jessica Smith
Aug 23, 2015

Getting back into the school routine doesn’t have to mean returning to a breakfast rut. You’ve got your weeknight meal routine on lockdown and nobody can rival your portable lunches. Now it’s time to up your morning game. We’ve put together a list of our favorite breakfasts for every occasion and they’re sure to have everyone in the house hopping out of bed. Send the cold cereal and toaster pastries off with summer vacation and say hello to the new kids at (breakfast) school.

First Day of School

1. Overnight Cider Pumpkin Waffles: It doesn’t matter how old you are — nobody likes to see summer come to an end. Or winter vacation, spring break or even the weekend, for that matter. Those rough BTS days call for something special for kids and parents alike and we think these waffles with toasted pecan butter and apple cider syrup will do just the trick. Start them the night before for an easier morning routine. (via Half Baked Harvest)

The Go-To Daily Routine

2. Blueberry Breakfast Quinoa: Give yourself and your little ones a dose of goodness with blueberries. Animal research has shown that blueberries help with learning capacity, which is perfect for a long day of learning new things at school. The protein-rich quinoa will also provide a boost of energy. (via Damn Delicious)

Breakfast On The Go

3. Healthy Banoffee Parfaits With Date Caramel and Stovetop Granola: Let’s face it: Most mornings are a little, err, rushed. Between finding clean socks, packing lunches and searching for the bus fare, breakfast often falls by the wayside. You need a portable morning meal in your repertoire and we think this one is different and delicious. It’s a tasty spin on the typical parfait and the recipe also provides plenty of shortcuts, as well as tips for making ahead. (via Top With Cinnamon)

Finals Week

4. Smoked Salmon and Avocado Open-Faced Sandwich: Researchers believe that fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids can help with memory and brain function. Oily fish like herring and sardines provide these important nutrients, but some beautiful wild smoked salmon will probably be a bit easier to stomach first thing in the morning. Avocados are also credited with improving brain health, making this a particularly nutritious breakfast sammy for finals week. (via Once Upon A Cutting Board)

Exam Day

5. BLT Breakfast Salad With Soft-Boiled Eggs and Avocado: Salad for breakfast? Yes! Leafy greens have been credited with helping you focus, making them a choice superfood for stressful days of tests, meetings or presentations. Throw some bacon on there and there will be zero complaints. (via So… Let’s Hang Out)

The Big Game

6. Oatmeal Power Bowl: Big competition days require energy, and the kind that will last and last. Whole grains have a low glycemic index, which means they’ll fill you up without spiking your blood sugar. That means you (or your little athletes) won’t find yourself crashing later in the day. Toss nuts and seeds over the top for a dose of fiber and healthy fats, which are also great for keeping you fuller longer. (via Oh She Glows)

Do your kids have a favorite BTS breakfast? We’d love to hear about it! Share with us in the comments, below.

‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ Reboot Adds Lola Tung & Austin Nichols

More of a horror lover than a holiday movie fanatic? You might agree that nothing beats an old school slashers. I Know What You Did Last Summer, which stars Jennifer Love Hewitt, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Freddie Prinze Jr., premiered in 1997, combines everything we love about coming of age movies — friends, summer vacation, and drama — with just enough terror to send a chill down your spine. And just like the original, the new I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot features some of the hottest names in Hollywood.

  • A new I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel is coming to theaters almost 30 years after the original.
  • The cast includes Lola Tung, Madelyn Cline, Nicholas Alexander Chavez, Austin Nichols, Gabbriette, Sarah Pidgeon, Tyriq Withers, Jonah Hauer-King, and Chase Sui Wonders.
  • Plot details are being kept under wraps but we know Freddie Prinze Jr. will reprise his role, meaning we can expect an expansion of the original movie.

'I Know What You Did Last Summer' Cast

Lola Tung, Nicholas Alexander Chavez, Austin Nichols, and Gabbriette are the most recent additions to the I Know What You Did Last Summer cast, which also includes Outer Banks’ Madelyn Cline, Sarah Pidgeon, Tyriq Withers, Jonah Hauer-King, and Chase Sui Wonders.

Plus, fans of the OG movie will be excited to know Freddie Prinze Jr. will reprise his role from the original movie — and Jennifer Love Hewitt is also in talks to return!

'I Know What You Did Last Summer' Plot

Columbia Pictures

In I Know What You Did Last Summer, four friends are terrorized by a man with a hook after they hit him with their car and try to cover it up. In the recent TV adaptation, which features 6 friends, the group accidentally runs over one of their own.

The I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot is sure to feature another hit-and-run with a juicy Gen Z twist. Do Revenge's Jennifer Kaytin Robinson is directing and co-writing alongside Sam Lansky. According to The Hollywood Reporter, who broke the casting news, the movie will take the same approach as the Scream reboot, mixing the original film's cast with the next generation of stars. So while the movie will cater to fans of the original, it's not a copy and paste reboot.

'I Know What You Did Last Summer' Release Date

Columbia Pictures

The new reboot will tentatively hit theaters July 18, 2025. I'm already prepping for next year's Slasher Summer!

Let us know what you're excited to see in the I Know What You Did Last Summer reboot on Facebook!
