When a group is asked what their favorite type of food is, many answer genres like Italian, Mexican, or Chinese. I do love some Greek food, and tacos are my favorite, but you know what's better than tacos? Breakfast tacos. My favorite food genre is simple: breakfast.

Growing up, I used breakfast as a time to think. Most people do a lot of deep thinking in the shower, but most of mine was done at the kitchen table. I would truly only able to drag myself out of bed because of the thought of sitting down in front of my bowl of cereal or plate of toaster waffles. While savoring that first meal of the day, I would think about the tasks ahead of me for that day, and I would memorize the words on the cereal box.

Nowadays, I have widened my options when it comes to breakfast food, and I have yet to find one that I do not enjoy. Quiche, sweet potato pancakes, homemade oatmeal, you name it, and I've probably tried it. It takes me significantly longer than most people to choose between items on a brunch menu because I want to try every option. I usually end up splitting two dishes with someone in order to try two meals as opposed to one.

Not only does breakfast food taste amazing, but it's also so good for you. You've probably heard it before, but breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It provides you with energy to use the rest of the day, therefore improving your metabolism. Many breakfast foods also contain a lot of nutrients your body needs throughout the day.

My breakfast routine is my favorite out of all getting ready activities. I find it so satisfying to make my green tea, craft my breakfast for that day, and take my vitamins (yes, I'm an old lady). No matter what happens during the day, I know that tomorrow is always a new day, and with it, comes the promise and security of my one true love: breakfast.
