What is your Go To Breakfast?

I subsist almost entirely on variations of what my mother called the Breakfast of Champions. Quick version:
Peanut butter chocolate oatmeal (premeasured on meal planning day)
1 serving veg (usually carrots)
1serving fruit (usually blueberries)
1 serving vegetarian protein source (cottage cheese or hummus)
cup of highly caffeinated tea
Long version:
Protein pancakes (also premeasured, but takes longer to cook)
1 serving veg (usually carrots)
1serving fruit (usually blueberries)
1 serving vegetarian protein source (cottage cheese or hummus)
cup of highly caffeinated tea
Sometimes I will crave eggs and make an omelet. Not often. There is cereal in the house but I use that as dessert.0 -

I have several go-to options that I rotate:
- 2 slices of bread with peanut butter and banana slices
- cottage cheese with fruit (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, banana, etc.)
- Cheerios with almond milk
- eggs/egg beaters scrambled with spinach, black olives, tomato, cheese, and hot sauce
- oatmeal (I have some 100 calorie and 160 calorie packets)

One whole wheat low carb mission wrap, two tablespooons hummus, very generous handful of baby spinach, half an avocado, and one serving of Perdue short cuts. Sooooo good, I eat it almost every weekday. Weekends I usually don't eat til the late morning/early afternoon.0

My go to breakfast is and has been 2 hard boiled eggs and 2 oz. of smoked salmon. I make up the eggs once a week so they are ready to go and buy the salmon from Sam's 20 oz. pack and pre-cut it into 2 oz. slices and wrap them up so each morning it' easy to reach in the fridge and grab and go. Eggs = 140 cal. and salmon = 100 cal.

Never the same thing 2 days in a row for me! I change it up even if I have a cereal (porridge) it will be different from one day to the next.
Today I had a slice of rueben rye bread with 4 ounce of home made chicken salad, 1/2 grapefruit and a cup of coffee ... 334 calories: 39 grams of carb, 12 grams fat, 17 grams protein
Yesterday it was old fashioned oats with a scoop of Hemp protein powder, 1 Tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon, 2/3 cup blueberries for 326 calories: 60 grams carb, 7 grams fat, 21 grams protein
Friday I had a red potato shredded and fried in a bit of corn oil to make 3 little hash browns, and 2 medium sized eggs, with a salad of fresh cucumber, tomato and onion with a sprinkling of salt and a dash of vinegar. I used the left over oil in the pan from cooking the potato to add to the salad but did use butter to cook the eggs. This came in at 445 calories: 36 grams of carb, 26 grams of fat, and 18 grams of protein ... it was a brunch meal.
Thursday I had a slice of that wonderful rye bread with 3 ounces of part skim ricotta cheese, a medium sized peach. This came in at 275 calories: 33 gram carb, 11 gram fat, 14 gram protein
Wednesday it was spoon sized shredded wheat (OMG, a processed food!) with a small banana and a cup of 2% milk for 380 calories, 73 gram carb, 6 gram fat and 15 gram protein ...
This is just to give you an idea that breakfast can be anything you like it to be ... the trick is to eat something you like and can fit in that will keep you satisfied until lunch! If I have to a have a mid-morning snack, I don't repeat that breakfast without tweaking it to include either more protein or more fat in it.1 -
4 brown eggs with shredded cheese and sour cream on top. 3 fresh pork links. Keto diet baby0

I like porridge with frozen fruit and mixed nuts, possibly with a drizzle of honey if the fruit is a bit tart. However recently I've been having hot, buttery crumpets with blueberries and banana and a cup of tea....crumpets might not be as substantial as oats but they're so satisfying! I struggle with breakfast because I'm not a fan of eggs or full englishes and cereals don't fill me up (I just eat endless bowls of cereal!). In an ideal world I'd be having pancakes and waffles and danish pastries every day :L2

I have 3 favs:
1. Slice of wheat toast with avocado spread on it, 2 slices of Turk Bacon and a runny egg. 1/2 grapefruit on side.
2. Green Juice: Coconut Water, Spinach, Celery, Cucumber, Apple, Avocado, Lime and Ginger (sometimes I add plain yogurt). Usually grab a boiled on side.
3. Protein Shake: Almond Milk, Frozen Berries,1/2 Banana, Cocoa Protein Powder, Spinach, Cinnamon and Oats. Taste like a milkshake0 -
wait....4...lol.
I also love a omelet with smoked salmon and roasted veggies on the side.1 -
For the last two-three years my breakfast have been 2 hard boiled eggs, one banana, an americano with 1 tsp salted caramel syrup and 1 cup of fresh juice, usually green juice. Occasionally I will make myself an omelette with smoked salmon and mushrooms or banana oatmeal pancakes. I have lately been trying to mix things up a bit like adding in half an avocado with one egg but always go back to my routine breakfast. I enjoy it and always feel ready to get on with the day!0

Every morning I clear my fridge out of leftovers for breakfast.. often theres some salad from the last nights dinner, a piece of meat, or a boiled egg.. or half avocados, or half used cucumbers and capsicums. or any vegetable close to turning gets fried up. I wash it down with some bone broth. That way my fridge stays clean and clutter free and I have a clear idea what I have available to eat for the rest of the day.2

I like to have a healthy breakfast before I start my day so that my body's metabolism can boost up. I always have smoothie for breakfast, and it really makes me energetic and makes me feel full.0

Mornings are frantic in our house because we have to get our daughter to school by 7:40, so on week days it's cereal, toast, toaster waffles, or English muffin with vegetarian breakfast sausage or an egg with fruit. And coffee. All the coffee.0
-
3 Whole eggs, lightly beaten, 2 biscuits with sausage gravy, med rare ribeye and Oatmeal with brown sugar and butter
Thats about every other morning lol1 -
Three fried eggs, on lightly buttered toast with a slice of cheese. Plus a cup of coffee (or tea).2

We make egg cups on Sunday and prep for the week. We wrap a piece of bacon around muffin tin and fill that with fill the middle with egg white/egg blend and whatever veggies we like. They are easy to make, reheat and portable enough to eat them in the car or on the go.0

#noeyecontact1 -
10 eggs
1/2 med onion, chopped
2 cups kale
12 cherry tomatoes/chopped
2 cloves garlic
Saute the garlic and onion in a small amount of olive oil or butter. Add tomatoes and stir for about 30-45 seconds to soften. Add the kale and stir to wilt slightly, then add eggs. Mix all together and continue stirring until eggs are scrambled and as done as you like. Split into 5 meal prep containers. Each morning, open a container, top with 1 Tbs grated parmesan or other cheese and microwave for a few seconds to heat. Super quick and yummy!1 -
New fave is quinoa, sauteed mushrooms and spinach seasoned with salt, pepper and a little Italian seasoning. Top with an over easy egg. The mushrooms and seasoning has a "sausage flavor" it is really good.1
