    My newest breakfast obsession (which is heavy on the protein) is homemade refried beans on top of scrambled eggs. YUM!

    Frittatas made in muffin cups. Easy to heat in microwave. Lots of veggies and use egg whites. Good protein and veggies, yum!

    Greek yogurt with anything. I add berries in there too even though they aren't protein.

    A nice omelette, add some ham for extra protein. Put some PB on toast if I am real hungry. Cottage cheese and yogurt with added protein powder. Those are my go-to breakfasts.

    Definitely frittatas made in muffin pan (broccoli, spinach, peppers, red onion, chillies, ham/bacon top with egg whites) and bake for 20 mins. There you go, breakfast for the whole week.

    I am up at five or even earlier. But I'm an incorrigible morning person. The trick is to prepare the night before. That opens up all the suggestions above. Now that it is winter, once a week I make up a big batch of steel-cut oats the night before, and keep it in mason jars. I eat it in the morning with blueberries and Greek yogurt. I microwave the cooked oats to warm them.

    Oats and protein powder, topped with fruit. Takes 3 minutes to make max, and it keeps me going all day :)

    Protein smoothie!
    Almond milk/coconut milk/regular milk, scoop of protein powder, half a frozen banana or frozen berries, flaxseed or chia seeds or LSA and kefir or yogurt (for the probiotic aspect)... PLUS you could add peanut butter, or cinnamon or cacao powder!

    My breakfast this morning. It has 600 kcal, 53g protein and 12g fibre.

    The protein comes mostly from 500 grams of quark, which offers 45 grams of protein for just 250 kcal. My other ingredients are an apple, bran flakes, and unsalted peanuts.

    ...and a similar breakfast from earlier this week, in which I substituted the quark for skim yoghurt, and the apple for a banana. Totals here add up to 660 kcal, 54g protein, 8g fibre.

    The yoghurt, like the quark, contains 45 grams of protein, but you'd need to eat twice as much to get that high a number and that costs slightly more calories.
