Healthy frozen breakfast ideas

If you think frozen packaged breakfasts are less nutritious than other a.m. options, you have plenty of company, as a new survey found that consumers think exactly that.

And you're not wrong—many are loaded with cals and sodium. No need to ice 'em all out, though! A good start? These nutritionist-approved options.

SOMETHING CARB-Y:

Ezekiel 4:9 Sprouted Grain Waffles: Crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside, these organic vegan waffles are a hearty choice. One serving size has eight grams of fiber and comes in Original, Apple Nut, Golden Flax, or Blueberry.

SOMETHING EGG-Y:

Good Food Made Simple Breakfast Scramble Bowls: These omelet-esque bowls aren't cal bombs (the heftiest tops out at 340), and they are stocked with vitamin C, protein, and calcium yet are low in sodium compared with similar frozen options (the Southwestern Veggie flavor has only 490 milligrams).

SOMETHING FRUITY:

Sambazon Superfruit Packs: Eat these as they are as breakfast ice pops, or mix with greens to transform them into smoothies or acai bowls. Choose from four different flavors.
