Lately, I have been slacking on breakfast. I hardly ever eat any, and if I do, it's half of a cliff bar or something else that I can have quickly to keep me from fainting on my morning runs. But, it seems the cliff bars are no longer keeping up... I stumbled across this recipe on My New Roots and I can't wait to try it. Perhaps my breakfast slump will soon be over!
