You might be wondering, “What is the cheapest breakfast food that I can make?”.

Well, one of the most inexpensive and easy meal ideas that you can try is oatmeal. And the best part is that you can dress it up any way that you want too!

One of my favorite ways to eat oatmeal is by adding in some chia seeds, cinnamon, and peanut butter. But if you want to add something like fruit, nut butter, flaxseeds, or milk, go ahead!

Another great way to prepare your oatmeal is by making overnight oats.

Breakfast Burritos

A cheap breakfast idea that would work for students (and those with a physically active job) is a breakfast burrito. It’s filling, full of protein, and very inexpensive to make (especially when you buy the ingredients in bulk).

For my breakfast burritos, I like to put in sausage, eggs, pepper, and (sometimes) potatoes. But, if you want a meatless alternative, you can try something similar to this vegan breakfast burrito.
