For this vibrant smoothie bowl, a topping of fresh berries, granola, nuts, and seeds provides crunch and texture to a smooth, creamy puree made from spinach, banana, avocado, pineapple, and coconut water, plus a bit of fresh ginger for zing.

Just like you can eat pancakes for dinner, you can also eat ramen noodles for breakfast. In this one-pot recipe, bacon, egg, and cheese perch atop a base of pantry- and budget-friendly ramen noodles.

Muesli is a Swiss preparation that combines apples, oats, and nuts with some sort of dairy — cream, milk, or yogurt. This variation includes dried fruit and coconut flakes, plus almonds, pecans, and pepitas for crunch. Fresh blueberries and sliced apples round out the dish.
Açai Smoothie Bowl

Blended açai, mixed berries, and creamy coconut milk form the sweet-tart foundation of this balanced smoothie bowl. The cold fruity base is paired with crunchy macadamia nuts, coconut chips, and fresh fruit for the perfect warm-weather breakfast pick-me-up.
Spicy Sesame, Bacon, and Egg Congee
Inspired by Top Chef alum Mei Lin, we’re adding spicy pork, creamy egg yolks, and crunchy sesame to classic rice congee. Cook it low and slow for the best texture, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a gentle bubble.
Waakye (My Big Fat Ghanian Breakfast)
“The ludicrously extravagant breakfast that is sold on street corners in a plastic bag or wrapped in a plantain leaf puts any UK street food and even some brunch menus to shame,” West African food expert Zoe Adjonyoh says of this Ghanian breakfast bowl. It comprises a fragrant goat stew, black-eyed peas, and rice, plus a topping of soft-cooked eggs, chives, sesame seeds, avocado, cilantro, and hot sauce.
Soft Scrambled Eggs with Ham and Truffles
Light and fluffy scrambled eggs are gently seasoned and generously perfumed by fresh black truffles and served alongside thinly sliced jambon de Paris and toasted brioche for this French-style breakfast bowl.
Strawberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats

Mixed with milk and yogurt and packed with fruit and a graham cracker crust, these overnight oats taste like strawberry cheesecake, regardless of whether they’re layered in a bowl or glass.
Sweet Almond Breakfast Quinoa with Dried Berries, Crushed Almonds, and Cacao Nibs
Made with almond milk and enhanced by a touch of almond extract, this breakfast quinoa gets piled with lots of flavors and textures: dried berries, crushed almonds, and cacao nibs.
Cambodian Breakfast Noodles
Chef Erik Bruner-Yang’s savory breakfast bowl features baby back ribs that have been slow-simmered with ginger, apple, garlic, and onion, then get mixed with Broccolini and served over thin rice noodles. To finish, it’s garnished with thinly sliced scallions and jalapeño, as well as mint, basil, and cilantro leaves.
