Breakfast ideas that don't include eggs, hot oatmeal, or yogurt?

stormdancer

For the last month, for breakfast I've been having 1 tin of Trader Joe's - Unsalted Sardines In Spring Water with 8 Triscuit crackers, which has the virtue of not needing to cook it.

For me time is super short in the a.m. - I drink a protein drink (a mix of Click Espresso protein, and Walmart Whey protein). It tastes great, keeps me full for hours (at least 4), isn't too expensive, etc. I'm boring I drink it almost every day.

I like to have an avocado on toast (which I call AvocaDOAST XD) or an almond butter toast topped with slices of banana. I sometimes pair that with a spinach or kale smoothie to which I add fruits and a tablespoon of chia seeds for extra protein. Total is usually around 285 - 310 calories.

I enjoy Morning Start Prime Griller Veggie Burgers on a half of a toasted lavash with goat cheese and ketchup. It's 250 calories or less and very filling. These veggie burgers are the best tasting ones out there, in my opinion. Super quick to make.

Sweet potato hash sans egg.

Onion, sweet potato, kale, any type of meat. I usually use roasted turkey breast, or corned beef, or roast beef as I always have one of the above in the fridge from leftovers.

For under 300 calories, I often make an apple-almond butter sandwich on whole grain bread. I'm using Dave's Killer Bread thin sliced at 60 calories a slice, half a Pink Lady apple, and 1 T of the kind of almond butter you grind right in the store so it doesn't get all hard to spread.

I don't have to eat "breakfast foods" for breakfast. I eat about 100-300 calories.

Cottage cheese, fruit, granola bar, sandwich, soup, dinner leftovers, yogurt, regular instant oatmeal, half a bagel, toast are all things I might eat. I had popcorn chicken and a small orange this morning.

my husband dislikes eggs, so he does a lot of sides forbreakfast, like some roasted potatoes, fruit and bacon. Either that or he does english muffin with peanut butter, small bagel with cream cheese and tomato, cottage cheese and melon, or a protein shake or smoothie, stuff like that. If you like to cook, you could always make a breakfast hash and just leave out the egg. You could fry one on top if you are feeling it. I like to make bison quinoa hash and put an egg on it, it tastes like a taco bowl.

Probably the best suggestion I can give you is to look up recipes online using the ingredients you DO eat at breakfast and see what the per serving calories are. You can always round it out with a bit of something else if it's too low, or eat a smaller portion if it's too big. ... You are the only one who knows the specifics of your food habits and likes ... and it's fun to spend some time looking things up ... for ... your .... self ... because you will like what you decide to try out.

Chicken stir fry.

I stopped eating breakfast lol. Makes mornings so much easier. But anywho. When I was eating breakfast I had a weird thing where it had to be breakfast food. I wasn’t about to eat fried chicken or lasagna or something like that for breakfast. I have heard someone say they eat some type of cereal (unsweetened, plain cereal) with milk mixed with vanilla protein powder. Sounded good to me.

veggie soy sausage patty on an english muffin. for 300 calories you should be able to add a slice of cheese.

TLDR; Salmon is breakfast food, as is pho.

It's a perfect combination of flavour and texture, crunchy toast with soft creamy avocado, and better still with sliced sweet cherry tomatoes ![/quote]

Bleh. Don't like avocado's

Yeah, I'm a frikken picky eater who should just grow up, but I'm also 52 and pretty much set in my ways as to what I like and don't like.

I ate lentil soup for breakfast for a long time. Home made lentil soup. Sometimes I'd add chicken in for variety. It was a 200 calorie breakfast with about 15 grams of protein and 12 grams of fiber.

Why not skip breakfast and just eat later in the morning or break your fast at lunch?

I skip breakfast too. Then I have a light lunch, sometimes a Granola bar in the afternoon, and a big supper.

Kodiak protein pancakes! I make a big batch and freeze so in the morning when I'm running late, all I do is warm them up in the microwave. So easy and you can add in different fruits to change the flavors.

What about some protein pancakes?

I make a version that comes in at around 400 cals total including toppings (50P, 28C, 8F), but you can alter the ratios of the ingredients and/or substitute to your own taste.

I use:
60g unflavoured Casein Protein (2 scoops)
1 whole egg
1/4 cup SR Flour (you could sub oat flour or similar)
pinch of Baking Powder
Just under 1 cup of Low Fat Milk (enough to get the right consistency).

I top it with some SF Maple Flavoured syrup and berries (or put some blueberries in the batter).

Just make as you would a normal pancake, but a tip is to put a lid over the pan when frying the first side - that way it steams the top a little and the overall texture is almost the same as a 'real' pancake.

I get these THINSLIM bagels , sesame seed or the everything bagel , then cream cheese and pepperoni , or melted mozzarella cheese and pepperoni . I am doing the low carbs so no fruit , but if you are just counting calories , you could have some fruit with this meal. this company has the best bread and bagels . Thinslim

I ate this "cake" in the AM for a while, 233 calories per serving... http://paleomg.com/carrot-breakfast-protein-cake/

Cold Pizza is the real breakfast of champions for me.

Avocado toast

I've been on a cereal kick for a long time- just so easy to prepare, but my favorite breakfasts are english muffins topped with peanut butter and banana or avocado on toast. And coffee... always coffee.

Chick pea flour "frittatas" can be made ahead and reheated in the microwave. I like to make a veggie hash, tex-mex style with black beans, corn and salsa. Dave's Killer Bread Power Seed, toasted and topped with avocado and tomato, or nut butter, bananas and hulled hemp seeds. Date balls are a good option too because you can eat them on the go and they give you a lot of energy to start the day with. Smoothies with unsweetened plant milk, spinach or kale, and frozen fruit. You could also do breakfast tacos with tofu scramble instead of eggs. If you have a waffle iron, you could make a batch of high protein waffles on the weekend and then freeze them to be reheated in the toaster and top them with homemade chia seed jam.

That's what I do!

If I really *need* to eat breakfast ... like if I'm going into an all-morning seminar or something where I won't get a chance to eat at 10:30 or 11 am, like usual ... I go with a piece of toast and cheese.

yyyyyyyyeah- I don't like avacado's straight up so I just don't get it- and I don't want crunchy things mushing with my slimy things- that seems... wrong.

Why are you limiting yourself to 300 calories for breakfast. Your body would appreciate a little more. you have just gone through 8 + hours without eating and now you think your body would be satisfied with a measly 300. Would you do the same if your last meal was at noon and next meal at 8 pm?. Part of the problem people have is that they are in a rush, and don't want to try and make decisions in the morning. Get everything ready for breakfast the night before. As for food make a toasted sandwich, mac & cheese, leftovers from the night before, but give yourself enough calorie room so that you can actually eat something.
