This collection has wholesome meals with plenty of protein and lots of flavor to give you sustainable energy to keep you motivated. With so many options, you can keep it fresh every morning!

Try a diner-inspired classic like Breakfast Biscuit Sandwiches. Fresh-from-the-oven biscuits stacked with melted American cheese and crispy bacon. The perfect grab and go breakfast that will get you going and go along with you. Or mix things up with Breakfast Pizza! Thanks to a head start from Pillsbury™ Classic Crust Pizza Crust, this recipe cuts down on prep time, so you can focus on what’s important. Craving something a little sweet in the morning? Enjoy a taste of the café with Raspberry-Cream Cheese Crescent Danish. Everyone will love Pillsbury™ Original Crescent Rolls packed with sweet raspberry jam, sprinkled with sliced almonds, and drizzled with a simple, 2-ingredient glaze. Now that’s how you start the day strong!

Snacks, Anyone?

What do you do when the next meal is hours away, but your kids are hungry now? You know what time it is: it’s snack time! But why settle for something simple like potato chips when you can bring out the good stuff? All it takes is just a little bit of extra prep to put together something truly spectacular. Nutritious, hearty, and, of course, packed with flavor, these snack recipes come together in just minutes, but the smiles will last all afternoon.

Here are a few options that can be ready to go in just 10 minutes of prep time.

Time for Dinner!

Tell take-out to take a hike. These dinners are designed to be easy to make, quick to prepare, and unbeatably delicious.
