Very easy low cal breakfast ideas

kynshiri

I used to eat a larger breakfast like sandwiches with cheese or something, but changed it to fresh fruit some time ago.
I do not get grumpy and hungry before 11 anymore and i start with a lot of extra vitamines that i lacked in my formar diet

For grab and go breakfast you can prep ahead of time it's hard to beat hardboiled eggs and string cheese.
The Fat and protein keep you full and satisfied much longer then carbs plus being modular items you can quickly tailor the calories to suit your needs. If you have the time then it's hard to beat eggs cooked to suit your mood. FYI.... I can make a cheese and avacado omelet in about 4 minutes time. Throw a warm tortilla around it and you not only get your carbs but a meal to go. Eggs , it's what's for breakfast in my house.

Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches : one minute in the microwave, delicious, and 220 calories. Eat it in the car on the way to work to save time.

None of these meals took me a great time to prepare. I strongly believe that our food satisfaction comes from “how it is presented.” I never eat from a container. The last thing I want is to eat a meal that screams “I’m eating diet food.” Bon Appétit

I love my sleep, so I do not leave much time in the morning for much of anything but the essentials. My husband usually makes me a bowl of cereal and brings it down for when I get out of the shower.

I am bored with the same thing! I end up with a growling stomach just 4 hours later.
I am looking for quick, make ahead but delish breakfast ideas!
Something under 250 calories would be great!
Take a look at my diary if you would like.

TIA!

Four hours later is pretty good! I eat every four hours. Otherwise I'm hungry and grumpy.

Thanks for posting this thread -- I'm getting some good ideas for breakfast.

Eggs are my go to if I have time. For a real rush, I think greek yogurt with a handful of berries is hard to beat. Enough sugar to wake me up and enough protein to keep me full

250 calories?? Why would you want to eat so little for breakfast?
Eating about half your calories for breakfast, a medium lunch, and a small snack for dinner leads to more weight loss than the same amount of calories eaten on the American plan.
(See the last half of this post for the studies.)
It's something I aim for, but don't always reach... The last few days I've been at 400 out of 1400. Throw in a yogurt and that's about 500 - 530, which is still low.

But if you want to keep eating a snack for breakfast, increase your protein & fiber to help feel non-hungry longer.
Greek yogurt + fruit (maybe add 1/4 c dry oats)
scrambled eggs with sauteed veggies & a splash of cheese for flavor (or salsa!)
hard-boiled eggs & a piece of fruit (bonus: portable to eat on the run)
a piece of whole-wheat bread + peanut butter + skim milk
