Alex Lopez's golden raspberry harvest

Fruit is the ideal breakfast ingredient, especially during summer when you're craving something light. Pair it up with a protein and you have a complete meal.

Alex Lopez shared this pic of golden raspberries growing wild in her garden, "great with honey, yogurt and almonds" — yum! My morning staple is almost identical, except I use fresh blueberries.

Or sometimes I'll slice up an apple and smear each wedge with natural peanut butter. I won't be hungry again until lunch!

When it's a little cooler out, I love to put fresh fruit with walnuts or pecans in a spiced oatmeal. It almost tastes like eating dessert.

What are your quick breakfasts made with fresh fruit?
