NEW ON SHOP: 10 High-Protein Breakfasts You Can Make In a Mason Jar

Make preparing a filling breakfast easier with these recipes that can be made right in a Mason jar. Each dish is super easy to prepare ahead and store in your refrigerator for when you  need it. Plus, there’s at least 15 grams of protein in every serving. Protein is a nutrient that can help you support healthy digestion, satiety and muscle recovery to help you feel your best. Keep some servings of our Carrot Cake Overnight Oats and Strawberry & Yogurt Parfait in the fridge to grab and go. Or, use your jars to store drinks like our Anti-Inflammatory Breakfast Smoothie until you’re ready to enjoy them.Carrot cake for breakfast? We say yes! These carrot cake overnight oats taste just like the classic dessert—complete with a frosting-like layer—but with far less added sugar. We like layering some of the frosting in between layers of oats, but you can just dollop it all on top if you prefer.

This mango green smoothie gets bright tart flavor from frozen passion fruit, and inflammation-fighting benefits from fresh kale. Dates add natural sweetness without added sugar. While cilantro may not be a typical smoothie ingredient, we love the herbal notes it adds to this smoothie. Feel free to leave it out if that’s not your thing—it’s just as delicious without.
