Don't send your child off to school having eaten a bowl of sugary cereal or a treat loaded with sugar. Your child's performance at school may be directly related to what you serve them for breakfast. Try these healthy breakfast foods for your family. And these recipes are also diabetic friendly for the diabetic child. Options include Eggsclusive BLT Sandwiches which are perfect for the family who has to deal with a morning rush. Make the egg mixture the night before and refrigerate. For more speed, use the already cooked bacon. Assemble the sandwiches in the morning, as needed.

The Whole-Wheat Waffles are always a good option and can be topped with fruit or sugar-free syrup.
