Orange-Mango Smoothie

For Dylan Dreyer, “Today’s 3rd Hour” co-host and NBC News meteorologist, this smoothie is a staple in her household during cold and flu season. The vitamin C from the oranges helps support immune health, so she and her kids can feel their best. Plus, it tastes just like a creamsicle. If you don’t have almond milk, any other dairy or nondairy milk will work.

Photographer: Rachel Marek, Food stylist: Holly Dreesman, Prop stylist: Gabriel Greco
It doesn’t get easier than this healthy breakfast taco that’s ready in just five minutes. Kale or arugula will work just as well if you don’t have spinach on hand.

Strawberry-Peach Chia Seed Smoothie
Photographer: Jen Causey, Food Stylist: Julian Hensarling, Prop Stylist: Josh Hoggle
This fiber-rich chia smoothie is sweet and tangy with a velvety texture, thanks to nutritious chia seeds that expand as they combine with liquid. Chia seeds have plenty of healthy benefits, from delivering a boost of fiber to providing a dose of heart-healthy fats.

Mango Smoothie Bowl
Frozen mango turns silky when pureed with coconut milk in this healthy breakfast. We boost the golden hue with turmeric, and the delicate sweetness is provided by honey. Turmeric contains a compound called curcumin, which may help reduce inflammation in the body.

Diner-Style Scrambled Eggs
These are the eggs you probably grew up eating: quick, easy to make, homey and comforting. A little butter adds richness. We use just a tiny amount of salt here, because it’s easy to oversalt eggs. Pull them from the heat the instant they’re done so they don’t turn tough and rubbery. And as with all egg dishes, dig in right away—they’re not getting any better as they cool off.

Peanut Butter & Berries Waffle Sandwich
Whole-grain freezer waffles make the perfect base for a nourishing breakfast that tastes just like a classic peanut butter and jelly sandwich. We use crunchy peanut butter to add texture, but you can swap in creamy, if you prefer. If fresh berries aren’t available, you can use frozen ones; microwave them in a small bowl for about 30 seconds to thaw before adding to the sandwich.

Strawberry Peach Smoothie
Cauliflower in a smoothie might sound like a deal breaker, but trust us, it’s worth it. Not only does it boost your veggie servings for the day, it also makes this peach smoothie even creamier.
