Hello! I always struggle with the breakfast portion of my calorie intake a day because I either eat too much or too little and my day gets all messed up. What do you guys eat for breakfast?

I usually have oatmeal with milk & protein powder (Steel cut Irish Oatmeal) or something with eggs, maybe eggs & greens, bacon & eggs, sometimes with rice or bread. You want a good dose of protein at breakfast1

Typically it's a boring banana and some oatmeal. It fills me up and leaves lots of calories for later.
What is your definition of healthy?1 -

I'm assuming healthy wouldn't include Krispy Kreme Donuts2 -
Breakfast is usually my smallest meal of the day. Usually some oats and a V8 or scrambled or boiled eggs.3

You just inspired me to eat egg in the nest! I prefer salty foods more than sweets and a good combination of egg and toast always fills me up.0 -
I usually eat 3 eggs, 4 pieces of bacon, toast with avocado, chocolate, and a pot of coffee.
If I'm less hungry (which is not often), I have some precooked chicken sausages that just need to be heated...almonds and a pot of coffee.2 -
Usually just eggs, sometimes some sausage..0

I have toast with peanut butter and jam with coffee. Almost every morning. If I don't have it I feel like it throws off my day.4

To your other questions - What do you guys eat for breakfast? and What are healthy breakfasts that are easy to make? - breakfast meals are breakfast meals because of tradition, not because they are important to eat at a certain time; a healthy diet is balanced and varied, and you can eat whatever you want for each meal. What you think is easy and tasty, can be vastly different from what I think is easy and tasty, so it's better that you just choose what you like to eat and to make.3 -
Eggs, or egg whites, ham/turkey sausage or veggie sausage.
OR Grits and fruit
OR Yogurt and protein powder with fruit.0 -
I make hashes that last a few days. Ground meat, roasted starch like squash or sweet potato, and whatever vegetables I have on hand. I eat it with eggs and a cup of tea.2

You cut a circle from a piece of bread, put it on a pan and in the hole you add an egg and let it cook. If you look up "egg in a nest breakfast" that is what i mean. I sometimes add avocado or ham and it taste really good.0 -
50gm of frozen berries, 225gm Greek yogurt, 25gm chocolate protein powder. I’ll make 6 at a time (size of the yogurts at Costco) and store in mason jars in the fridge for grab-and-go breakfasts or snacks.
I make huge batches of soup in my instant pot, and portion them out for a quick heat-and-eat meal, or to freeze for future quick meals. They often make a good and easy breakfast too.0 -

I will absolutely use your go to breakfasts considering they sound amazing. Thank you!2 -
I have to eat while packing lunches and making sure the kid gets ready for school. So turkey sausage links, half a grapefruit, and usually some bar (Fiber One, Belvita) I can have in the car.0
