    A friend of mine makes these in the oven or on the grill and they make a wonderfully different breakfast --

    turkey sausage
    red or yellow sweet pepper
    turkey bacon
    pineapple cubes - reserve juice from can
    (onion - mushroom - cherry tomato -- these can also be used)

    Set oven at 375 degrees. cut all into 1 inch chunks or a little bigger. Using bamboo skewers soaked in water, thread alternating items onto the skewers. Drizzle all with a little of the pineapple juice.

    Arrange on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown on the edges ... about 25 minutes. Serve warm.

    Not many folks said "cereal." My everyday breakfast is this (plus a large glass of water):

    1/4 cup all bran (go fiber!)
    1/2 to 1cup other cereal (Kashi, cheerios, granola...something different every day, nothing sugary though)
    1/4 - 1/2 cup fruit (blueberries, strawberries, bananas, peaches...something different every day)
    1 cup skim milk
    1 packet sweet and low

    Surprisingly, this covers most of the food groups and is quick/easy!

    I like breakfast rice. I am not vegan, but I did a cleansing vegan diet for a few months and I loved this for breakfast. I used to put cranberries instead of raisins but you can put any fruit or nuts in that you like. I used to make it in my crock pot.

    Vegan Breakfast Rice

    Ingredients
    1 cup long grain brown rice
    1 cup apple juice
    1 cup water
    1/2 cup raisins
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    honey (optional) or maple syrup (optional)

    Directions
    1 Combine all of the ingredients in a saucepan.
    2 Bring to a boil and then cover.
    3 Reduce the heat, and cook for 40 minutes.
    4 Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
    5 Serve with a drizzle of honey or maple syrup if you like.
    6 (This may also be made in a slow cooker overnight. Combine all of the. ingredients and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours).

    This sounds yummy! I'll have to try it some time

    Here's a list of what I have for breakfast:

    -Quaker instant cheese grits (one gram of fat... no kidding.)
    -Toast and jelly (sugar free)
    -Fruit
    -Eggo waffles
    -Pancakes
    -Egg whites, cheese, and sausage bagel (Jimmy Dean D'light, I think? You could take off the egg piece, I guess.)
    -Pillsbury bisuits


    I don't eat much in the morning, so mine are a bit high calorie...because I'd never reach my calorie goal without it.
