Chocolate Banana and Blueberry Breakfast Bowl – Cereal Optional :)
Posted in: Breakfast Ideas, Food Photos, Toddler Approved | 5 Comments
I’ve been on a frozen wild blueberry kick after discovering my local Costco’s sells them in bulk. Most mornings the little guy and I pour our cereal, load it up with frozen blueberries and enjoy breakfast together. It’s becoming a nice morning habit.
We mix it up now and then. Types of cereal, adding banana, alternating between milks, sometimes skim, sometimes almond and sometimes my new favorite, light chocolate soy. 
This morning I wanted a healthy breakfast but, to be honest, I ate so much over the weekend that I wanted to go a little lighter. That’s when this simple idea hit me!
I love the banana chocolate combo and the blueberries, especially the frozen ones, add fun sweetness, even turning the milk a lovely shade of purple (the little guy loves that!) :)
I realize the idea is quite simple but I hope it sparks some ideas for you. Sometimes a simple bowl of fruit is a perfect breakfast for me.
- 1 medium banana cut in half longways and then sliced
- 1/4 cup frozen wild blueberries
- 3oz light chocolate soy milk
Place all ingredients in the bowl and enjoy your fruit filled breakfast! At least that’s what I do. :)

Do you thaw your blueberries first?
nope! They are perfect frozen and get this nice glaze when the milk hits them. The wild ones are so small they start to defrost almost immediately anyway.
So simple and so tasty, I bet! We did something similar today, only added a ton of butter, sugar and flour to it. So my guess is your version was healthier :).
Roni,
Saw your posts on wild, not regular, blueberries. Went to the grocery store today and you were right, they were in a strange place, right next to the desserts! Anyway, my 3-year-old and I tried them today and absolutely LOVED them. Thank you so much for the suggestion!! From Julie in Cincinnati
Glad you found them Julie! We love them too. :)
