Talitha Vonn used to skip breakfast more often than not. Rushing out the door, grabbing coffee, and hoping it would hold her until noon—it became her daily routine. But the sluggish mornings and mid-morning cravings told another story.
“I didn’t realize how much skipping breakfast was throwing me off,” she says. “I’d crash before lunch and then overeat.”
When she started learning about fiber and its role in blood sugar balance, satiety, and gut health, she knew she needed to change. But she didn’t have time for elaborate meals first thing in the morning.
Her solution? Breakfast in jars.
Overnight oats, chia puddings, and smoothie bowls layered into mason jars became her go-to. She could prep them in five minutes the night before, let them chill overnight, and grab them on her way out the door. They weren’t just convenient—they were packed with fiber from oats, seeds, berries, and nuts.
“It wasn’t just that they were easy,” Talitha says. “They kept me full, energized, and feeling like I started my day with intention.”
Some mornings she’d stir in peanut butter and sliced banana. Other days, a swirl of yogurt and cinnamon-baked apples. She learned to treat breakfast like a ritual—even if it was eaten at her desk.
“Now I look forward to breakfast,” she says. “It’s my first win of the day.”
By making fiber the foundation of her morning, Talitha didn’t just improve her gut health—she changed her whole rhythm. “One jar at a time,” she smiles, “I got my mornings back.”
