The aftermath of eating too much sugar can be quite uncomfortable sometimes, but one step you can take to heal the added sugar hangover is to eat high-fiber, low-added-sugar breakfast recipes like these. Each serving contains no more than 3 grams of added sugar and at least 6 grams of fiber to help you get your mind and body re-energized with healthy nutrients. Flavorful breakfasts like our Chickpea & Potato Hash and Savory Oatmeal with Cheddar, Collards & Eggs can help you feel nourished and satisfied as you start your day.

Wheat berries, a nutty-tasting whole grain with a pleasantly chewy texture, are the base of this hearty breakfast bowl recipe. The fiber-rich grain freezes very well, so cook up a batch to stash away for salads, bowls and more. Topped with spinach, peanuts and an egg, these bowls make for a satisfying breakfast. Sprinkle with crushed red pepper for extra heat.
