Here's What Real Healthy People Actually Eat For Brunch

For when you don’t want to ruin the weekend with salad.

Brunch is a time-honored way to totally go to town on food you probably wouldn't eat every single day of the week.

And no one's going to take that away from you.

But in case you ever want a weekend meal that is delicious and filling but not as rich as, say, a Bloody Mary with a bacon rim or a sandwich with doughnuts for buns (both of which sound delicious, BTW), we asked some nutritionists and healthy food bloggers to tell us what they eat for brunch. Even if these don't inspire you to cook on a Sunday morning, they'll at least give you some idea of what to order when you want something healthier but still awesome.

Sweet Potato Hash with Poached Eggs

Sweet Potato Hash with Poached Eggs

I'm a huge fan of eggs for brunch, and this homemade sweet potato hash with poached eggs is the perfect combination of comfort food and health. It's a good dish to impress guests with, too, because it looks and sounds fancy but it's easy to make! To save time, make the sweet potatoes ahead of time - or simply use leftover roasted potatoes. Never made poached eggs at home before? Try it - it's easier than you'd think. Or, you can always substitute fried eggs (leave the yolk runny!) instead."

Bacon, Eggs, Greens, and An English Muffin With Jam

"It's a flavor explosion and the eggs and bacon are high in protein ... and the English muffin with organic all-fruit strawberry jam gives just the perfect comfort and fiber, and finishing the meal with the greens ... helps me feel unstoppable for the day ahead!"
