And yes, I\u2019m one of those habitual breakfast skippers.<\/p>\n<p>My goal this month is to correct that bad habit. It\u2019s a good month for the change, because it happens to be National Breakfast Month. One of the ways I hope to add more breakfasts to my diet is by eating more of my favorite foods in the morning \u2013 including lots of watermelon.<\/p>\n<p>Many people think of watermelon as an accompanying snack during a barbecue or other later-in-the-day meals, but like many fruits, it\u2019s actually quite versatile and tasty as a breakfast item. And so, to help myself \u2013 and millions of Americans just like me \u2013 I\u2019ve compiled a list of great ways to incorporate watermelon into your breakfasts.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.watermelon.org\/Recipes\/Breakfast-Lasagna-40.aspx\">BREAKFAST LASAGNA<\/a> \u2013 I know what you\u2019re thinking: Lasagna \u2013 even breakfast lasagna \u2014 takes a long time to prepare, right? Not this one. Only four ingredients, and every one of them is delicious.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.watermelon.org\/Recipes\/Watermelon-Stacked-Breakfast-Pancakes-45.aspx\">WATERMELON PANCAKES<\/a> \u2013 For me, there\u2019s no better Sunday breakfast than pancakes. So when I found this recipe for watermelon pancakes, I immediately added it to my weekend to-do list. Only 43 hours until this dream becomes a reality.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.watermelon.org\/Recipes\/Watermelon-Donuts-42.aspx\">WATERMELON DONUTS<\/a> \u2013 Has anyone ever had homemade donuts? If so, you know that they can be \u2013 how do I put this delicately? \u2013 disappointing. That outcome will change if you make watermelon donuts \u2026 and I plan to very soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever since we were kids, we were told that \u201cbreakfast is the most important meal of the day.\u201d If that\u2019s true, then why do 18 percent of adults skip the morning meal on a regular basis?
