Breakfast

Jolinia

Usually don't eat breakfast, but last night an omelet started to sound tasty, so I made one this morning. Eggs, sun-dried tomatoes, onions, garlic, habanero peppers, salt, and apple cider vinegar. Delicious!

I had 3 eggs with avocado and hot sauce and a cup of coffee.

well today I had grain-free crepes with sunflower butter and dark chocolate and some cantaloupe chunks. Which wouldn't help your sugar intake. I usually have some sort of eggs and fruit (quiche, egg muffins, scrambled eggs with peppers and avocado and salsa, fried eggs on toast, hard boiled eggs in bento shapes).

Well... I grabbed a pop-tart on my way to work this morning from the cabinet (Chocolaty Strawberry, new flavor), took a bite, and threw it away.... tasted like pure *kitten*. So when I got to my office I grabbed two Quest bars from my desk drawer and got a coffee from Sheetz.

Nothing first thing in the morning. Then after my bike ride I had a shake with 12 oz skim milk, 1 tbsp of chocolate syrup and a scoop of whey. An hour later I had 2 mini bagels with a tbsp of jelly.

837 calories burned and only 515 consumed, so I'm kind of starving right now but I'm trying to make room to have 2 beers tonight.

Today was a green smoothie that consisted of 2 handfuls spinach, 1 medium banana, 2 scoops vegan protein powder, 1 cup unsweetened almond milkand a few ice cubes. It was delicious.

Just now I had 5 walnut halves and 2 clementines.

@debrakgoogins‌ ive never heard of a muffin top pan? Can you find them anywhere? I like the idea of making them ahead of time.

You can find muffin top pans pretty much anywhere good kitchen products are sold. You can make six egg patties at a time. I make one dozen a week because my kids eat them too. I use 10 eggs, homemade turkey sausage, every color of peppers, onion and fresh chopped spinach for mine. It works out perfect for 12.

A Quest bar and Greek yogurt. But I just ate lunch (as I can't eat at work today), which was eggs w/spinach and cheddar, turkey sausage, toast, and a banana.

beemerphile1

Banana (carbs) and one hard boiled egg (protein).

Quaker oats (1/2 cup dry before water and microwaving) topped with a half cup each of 2% milk and blueberries. 251 Calories, 44g carbs, 6g fat, 10g protein, 64mg sodium and 14g sugar

My go to breakfasts are:
1 over medium egg on 1 slice whole grain bread.
40 get oatmeal with .5 Oz walnuts and 21st brown sugar.
2/3 c fruit and nut granola with 1 cup milk.

I eat those almost all the time and can turn them out with 10 mins in the kitchen.

I do the make ahead breakfast sandwiches with a light English muffin, an egg, a slice of ham and a slice of cheese. I make 1-2 weeks worth and freeze them. When I get to work, I heat it up in the microwave and eat while checking my emails. I do find that I cannot take them straight from the freezer to the microwave - I have to let them defrost first. Otherwise, the meat and muffin overcook while the egg is still frozen. I have tried the various defrost settings on the microwave without success so I just pull the sandwich out of the freezer the day before.

With the ingredients I use, it comes out to 247 calories, 28g carbs, 10g fat, 20g protein, and 8g of fiber.

I used to eat oatmeal for breakfast most days but switched to the sandwiches to increase protein intake.

@sjp_511‌ I tried making that way at first too. Now I just make the egg patties and keep a package of whole grain bagels at work since we have a toaster. That way, I microwave the eggs for 2 minutes while the bagel is toasting. It turns out much better.

KitkatcuteNYC

- nf Greek yogurt, dark chocolate chips, slices of potatoe w/ salsa, big bowl of blueberries, 6 cups of Peppermint tea, 1/2 cup coffee w/ almond milk. All spread out within 4 hours.

I have considered freezing the egg separately and then assembling my sandwich on the morning. But so far I have done a pretty good job at remembering to defrost my sandwich ahead of time.

And making them all at once means only 1 mess to clean up. I can't slice an English muffin without generating a lot of crumbs.

@SconnieCat‌ a muffin top pan works really well to. They come out the exact size to throw on a whole wheat or multigrain bagel.

Wonderful tip!! Thanks so much!

1 egg, 1 piece of toast, milk, and yogurt (its gym day so i eat a little more for breakfast)

Withwings137

I prepare a weeks worth of overnight oatmeal or greek yogurt/frozen berries/granola.

Overnight oatmeal = 1 part old fashioned oats, 1 part milk, 1 part applesauce and cinnamon or apple pie spice to taste (I do 1/2 cup of everything and 1/4 tsp apple pie spice). Store in fridge 5-7 days - the flavor gets better as it sits.

Yogurt parfait = 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt, 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries. Add to 8 oz container (dont mix) and store in fridge up to 5-7 days. I also make 1/2 cup servings of granola (homemade but you could use store bought) and mix them together in a bowl when I'm ready to eat.

newereveryday

My breakfast is almost always a homemade parfait. One cup fat free vanilla yogurt, half a handful of mixed berries (frozen, but thawed by the time I eat it), and two to three plastic spoonfuls of Kashi Go Lean Crunch cereal for texture. It keeps me full for quite a while and takes just five minutes to put together either before bed or in the morning before work. About 225 calories.

I'm not a morning person so I decided I needed to make this meal so I don't have to plan it out ... and it's still yummy: oat (50g), cinnamon, one banana (100kcal) or mixed frozen berries topped with boiling water and while I do my make up I let it soak (if I dont have access to a microwave). and of course coffee with 1,6% milk = 295 kcal.
