There’s a lot of pressure associated with New Year\u2019s Day brunch. It\u2019s the first meal of the new year so you want it to be delicious, but it also happens to fall on the day many use to kick off a year of healthy eating. That\u2019s a big load for one morning meal to carry. We have good news: There are plenty of Sporked<\/em>-approved brunch foods\u2014from whole wheat English muffins to turkey bacon that won’t bum you out\u2014that taste indulgent even if they aren’t. Here are some New Year’s Day brunch ideas that’ll kick off the year on the right foot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Specially Selected Indulgent Greek Honey Vanilla Yogurt<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n

Having \u201cindulgent\u201d in the name seems like a cheat code. But it\u2019s a cheat code I\u2019ll happily take advantage of for New Year\u2019s Day brunch. Sporked<\/em> managing editor Gwynedd Stuart<\/a> described this yogurt as \u201cbasically like a creme brulee custard…so rich and creamy with a rich, toasted vanilla flavor.\u201d Layer it with some fresh berries and granola<\/a> to make a fancy parfait and you\u2019re eating well for New Year\u2019s brunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jennie-O Turkey Bacon<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n

Everyone loves bacon, but bacon doesn\u2019t love everyone\u2014and that\u2019s OK. Swapping out pork bacon for turkey bacon is a great way to cut some cals from our New Year\u2019s Day brunch. And this stuff is good. Like really, really good. And because the slices of this turkey bacon are so nice and thin, you still get that signature crispy crunch that bacon is known for. Whether you’re making a bacon benedict or you just need a meaty side to go with some scrambled eggs, this turkey bacon will make you feel optimistic about the year to come (or fill you up until dinner at the very least). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benedicts are a classic for special occasion brunches. And what better occasion is there than New Year\u2019s Day brunch? If a benedict was on your list of New Year\u2019s Day brunch ideas, there\u2019s one brand of English muffin that you should be grabbing. Stone & Skillet\u2019s wheat English muffins are super soft and buttery in the center\u2014they’re doughy in a way that makes them taste freshly baked, unlike most English muffins. It gives them chew and makes them taste super indulgent. This screams New Year\u2019s brunch. And they just so happen to be whole wheat, which you can feel good about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trader Joe\u2019s Blueberry Waffles<\/strong><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

Skip the regular waffles today because we\u2019re eating healthy for New Year\u2019s brunch. Oh, you don\u2019t think a few blueberries make frozen waffles a healthy food? Well, we’ll have to agree to disagree, my friend, because I think this is a great add to our list of New Year\u2019s Day brunch ideas. These waffles are packed with fresh blueberry flavor, so I\u2019m going to bat for them. Top these with some almond butter <\/a>or some agave nectar\u2014delish and highly easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
