    What is a SOPES, do you make it or buy it?

    Sopes are Mexican corn cakes that are kind of like thick tortillas with the ends rolled up. They're really high in fiber. I buy them at a Mexican grocery store, but you can also make them with corn masa or probably find them in a large grocery store.

    Half a cup of Greek Yogurt (massive protein)
    Half a cup of Bran Flakes/Buds (massive fiber and complex carbs)
    Half a cup of blueberries (massive antioxidants)

    Tablespoon of Honey (massive simple sugar and an awesome way to build up a defense against pollen allergies)

    Love your user name! How comforting.

    Every morning I have 2 Eggos with 1 tbsp of peanut butter and 1/2 tbsp of lite butter. (Put together like a sandwich!) Then I have a cup of coffee with a 1/2 cup of Cashew Milk. It's 350 calories and holds me over until lunch time :) It takes 5 minutes and feels pretty indulgent in the morning!

    During the work week if I don't have oatmeal, I usually have fruit and 1/4 cup ricotta or an apple w/2tbsp of a nut butter. On weekends, I'll have a scrambled egg with either a piece of peameal bacon or 1 slice of centercut bacon on a whole wheat roll or an omelette that is heavy on vegetables.

    200g of fat free Greek Yoghurt, 33g of porridge oats, 1tbsp of honey. Mix in a bowl and leave overnight. In the morning, add 10g of Rice Crispies and stir in. The Rice Crispies add a nice little crunch while the oats give it body. 320 calories, lots of goodness and it keeps you full til past lunchtime.

    Thanks a lot, I'm going to get a package to try

    Breakfast tostadas are one of my favorites. Very close to what SFcrocker makes with the sopes. I crisp up some sprouted court tortillas, layer a little refried beans, a fried egg, hot sauce and salsa on top. Really filling and delicious. Right now my go to is Erewhon brown rice cereal with hemp milk. Uneventful but I love it.

    I love Zoats.

    Zoats: You can't taste the zucchini in this.
    I did use a small zucchini, since I just made it for me.
    I added more than 1/2 water to the oatmeal, so it wouldn't burn. I added about 1.5 cups, a little less.
    I also added blueberries and cinnamon.
    It tastes just like regular oatmeal. My nutritionist puts chocolate and nutella in hers.
    This makes one serving with 220 calories, 30g carbs, 3 g fat and19g protein.
    1. Grate 1/2 small zucchini
    2. Whip 2 egg whites ( I use liquid egg whites from a carton)
    3. Combine 1/2 cup non instant oatmeal with water (you don't want the oatmeal to burn due to a lack of water) 4. Bring the oatmeal to a boil
    5. Reduce the heat to medium, add egg whites and zucchini. Stir continuously for 2-3 minutes. 6. Add any sweetener or flavoring you want.

    Really depends in the WOE you use. I usually like a sausage/egg/cheese/salsa scramble, sometimes I put it into a couple LC tortillas and fry in some butter. On weekends I like to have some keto waffles, or keto biscuits and gravy and bacon for one day as a small splurge.

    Quiche muffins...broccoli and turkey sausage. 6 eggs, 9 turkey sausage links, 1/2 cup skim mozzarella, I used steamed broccoli one bag cooked in microwave. A little salt and pepper. Put in food processor for 20-30 secs. Sprinkle the another 1/2 cup mozzarella on top of each muffin. . Bake at 350 for 20 min or until fork is clean. 96 calories each :)

    5 minute Breakfast Sammich:

    What you need:

    1 microwave safe container (the same size in width as an English muffin)
    A microwave oven
    Toaster

    *******

    (1) 100% Whole Wheat English Muffin
    4-6 eggs (0-2 yolks, depending on your desired fat/protein ratios)
    2 slices Extra Lean Turkey Bacon
    1 Slice 0-2% Cheddar Cheese

    OR

    1/4 cup 0-2% Shredded Cheese (this is a little messier until melted on the sandwich but can do in a pinch)

    OPTIONAL SPICER-UPPERS:
    1/4 avocado, thinly sliced (be aware how this jives fat content with any egg yolk you plan on using)
    1 tablespoon Olive Oil Mayo
    Moderately Easy Prep:

    If you like your English Muffin a little toasty, slice the muffin in half and put in a toaster for desired crispiness. While your English Muffin is toasting, crack 4-6 egg omitting yolks or adding 1 MAX 2-- the general rule of thumb here is 1 yolk for every 3-4 egg whites--into your microwave-safe container (you may want to cooking spray or wipe the container with a dab of olive oil to prevent sticking). Place eggs in microwave and cook on high for 2-3 minutes until eggs are cooked through and firm. While eggs are cooking, slice or measure out cheese and have at the ready.

    Once eggs are done, put two strips of lean turkey bacon in the microwave on "High" for 2 minutes or so.

    Now that you've got all your "parts" together, sandwich them up. You may need a knife to slip the egg out of the container if you didn't use oil but other than that, you're done and on your way.
    The (Macronutrient) Breakdown:

    Calories: 370
    Fat: 10g
    Carbs: 28g
    Protein: 42g (with a serving of whey protein as a drink: 36g)

    46 Protein/24 Carb/30 Fat

    *Adding Avocado and/or Olive Oil Mayo will increase the fat content and calories. You can adjust by not using egg yolk and halfing the avocado serving.
