RIDGEWOOD, N.J., Jan. 26, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Experts have said that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but unfortunately too many people skip the meal. Not only does breakfast satisfy your hunger, research shows that children who eat breakfast do better in school than those who skip the meal.
To reinforce the importance of eating breakfast, The J.M Smucker Company - makers of Smucker's(r) jams, jellies, and preserves - has teamed up with Chef Jon Ashton to create the Better Beginnings Breakfast Program.
Ashton is the resident chef of the CW's nationally syndicated show, "The Daily Buzz," and has appeared on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" and the "Today Show."
"When people have busy schedules, it's easy to forget there are many convenient and new breakfast recipes to choose from," said Ashton.
Whether eaten at home, on the go, or at work, Smucker's has developed a wide assortment of recipes featuring smoothies, breakfast sandwiches and breakfast bars to help vary the morning routine.
Ashton offers simple ways to enjoy breakfast with a variety of recipes as well as advice on how to incorporate these recipes into any type of morning routine.
