    Well, I know what I will be eating for brekkie tomorrow. Just made a batch of pumpkin kaya (a kind of jam) and that will go on toast. Will also have a one-egg omelette with cardamom chai. Can't wait to wake up to that! :)k5r4knz1ap2k.jpg

    I eat very little in the morning when I work because I can't enjoy it. So if my teeth are hurting I have half an Ensure, and if they don't then I have half a protein bar.

    I generally eat the same thing every morning: 1/2 cup low fat cottage cheese and 3 hard boiled eggs - whites only. Sometimes I'll do the cottage cheese with an individual serving of Tableside Chunky Guacamole. It works and I don't have to think about it.

    I loved eating a hardboiled egg chopped up with mayo but the mayo isn't healthy so I started subbing in plain chobani yogurt. One tablespoon of mayo then whatever amount of yogurt it took to fully coat the egg. Then a squirt of mustard, a lot of dill, and that's it!

    I would also mix a little honey in with chobani plain yogurt as well. Or just grab a banana. =) I'm not a big breakfast eater.

    Breakfast is a big meal for me; I'm useless if I don't eat in the morning. I usually have a couple of hardboiled eggs and a piece of fruit or if I have more time I'll do sauteed greens with a little bit of refried beans and a fried egg on top. I'm also fond of dinner leftovers heated up. I don't like sweets very much and I'm very picky about bread.

    Most often (5-6 mornings a week) I eat oatmeal with 10 raisins, 10 walnuts, and 1 tsp of natural orange marmalade, coffee. That fills me up enough to make it to lunch.

    Other mornings I eat cold cereal with milk and fruit

    OR eggs (scrambled or hard boiled) with toast or English muffin and peanut butter.

    BTW Queenmunchy, your crustless quiches, frittatas look SO good!

    Home made mini "quiches" made with eggs and veg in a ham lined muffin tray mmmm and only 100 cals, or skyr (protein rich Icelandic yoghurt) or quark with berries. All quick, easy, pre-prepared and sets me up for the day. I am not a big breakfast person so need quick, light and easy options or I will skip the meal.

    Healthy, easy and nutritious. Or maybe something on the go. Or more complex. Share your morning eatings!

    1/2 cup Plain yogurt. 1tbsp honey. 1 tsp oats, 10 blueberries. Whenever bars are great paired with a fruit. Chopped fruit with a splash of lemon juice and agave. One egg I'm letter filled with spinach and tomatoes. Raw homemade juices (I have recipes) or whole fruit smoothie i.e. make raw juice and add a banana and another fruit, coconut oil, and ice. :-)

    I bake crust less quiche or "frittatas" for 130-150 calories per 1/4. Just heat up a quarter every morning
    Recent ones are cabbage/bacon and BLT

    Would you mind sharing the recipes for these? I've been making my crustless spinach quiche with either ham or turkey sausage and fat free cheese and I would like to mix it up a bit.
    Thank you!

    Nothing. But if I did, it would probably be eggs or yoghurt.

    During the week I have pretty much the same thing every day:

    *An individual Fage 2% plain Greek yogurt
    *1 serving of either Kashi 7 Whole Grain Nuggets cereal with fresh fruit, or oatmeal with cinnamon and either fresh fruit, or thawed frozen fruit.
    *And my breakfast smoothie: 1 banana, 1 cup kale or spinach, 1 cup unsweetened coconut or hemp milk, 1/2 cup water, 1 scoop pea protein powder, 2 tbsp PB2, 1 tbsp unsweetened baking cocoa powder

    On the weekend, pretty much whatever I feel like.

    Oh yeah and I always have a multivitamin and a flaxseed oil tablet.

    I eat basically the same thing everyday during the work week. Breakfast at 6:30am

    3 egg whites scrambled with 1oz. swiss cheese, 2 cups spinach, 8 cheery tomatoes (halved)
    1 cup hazelnut coffee with 2T hazelnut creamer
    2 pieces of flax seed whole grain toast
    1c. watermelon

    This comes to about 350 calories and approx 25g protein, 38g carbs (23g sugar), 10g fat
    Keeps me feeling full until about 11am, when I eat a cheese stick, then lunch at 12:30pm

    @nwoodrum2011 No problem!

    Ingredients:
    4 slices center cut bacon
    8oz sliced cabbage (I use bagged coleslaw)
    4 eggs
    4 egg whites or ¾ cup liquid egg whites
    ¼ cup nonfat milk
    Salt/pepper to taste
    1-2 scallions, sliced


    Method:
    Chop and crisp the bacon in a pan. Remove the bacon and cook the cabbage in the remaining bacon grease until soft – set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, egg whites, milk, salt and pepper. Line the bottom of a cake pan with parchment paper. Pour egg mixture into pan and add cabbage distributing evenly. Top with bacon and scallions. Bake at 400 for approx. 20 minutes until set.

    For the BLT, I just cook the bacon and swap out the cabbage for 3-4 oz of fresh baby spinach. Then I add around 60g of sliced grape tomatoes instead of the scallion.

    You can really swap out anything you want :)

    I have a protein shake. I'd love to be an oatmeal person but that texture just isn't for me. If I'm hungry mid morning I will have yogurt or a piece of fruit.
