These meals are kid-approved, make-ahead, and freezer-friendly, so I can just grab, heat, and serve—no flipping pancakes at 6 a.m. necessary.

From sweet banana muffins to cheesy breakfast burritos, these recipes make sure my kids eat something wholesome, even when we’re running late (which, let’s be honest, is almost every day). If you want easy school morning wins, this is the list you’ll come back to again and again.
