18 Life Hacks to Make Breakfast Easier
1.
Stop trying to spread rock-solid butter on warm toast. Shred it on a cheese grater for buttery goodness and zero holes in your bread.
2.
A couple of rounds in the microwave is the perfect way to crisp a single serving of bacon FAST.
5.
Skip all the splattering grease, and do the same thing with frozen potatoes (in this case, tater tots) for easy hash browns.
6.

7.
Bake eggs, cheese, meat and maybe even a veggie or two in muffin tins for grab-and-go Frittata Cups.

10.
Do you love yogurt but constantly forget to bring a spoon? Folding the foil lid works fine in a pinch!
11.
Even instant oatmeal takes time to heat and cool. Instead mix oats, milk/water and fruit in a jar, and put it in the fridge before bed. It softens overnight and tastes good cold.
12.

13.
It's 2015...are you still trying to pour perfect pancakes from the bowl? This ketchup bottle trick will change your life.
14.

15.
Omelets are delicious but you have to be Bobby Flay to flip them correctly. Skip the stress by making it in a sandwich press instead!
16.
Prefer your eggs sunny side up? Use an onion ring to keep it from running all over the pan.
