Weekday Breakfasts

diamonds1202

I am looking for ideas for quick breakfasts. What did you eat this morning for breakfast? What are your favorite breakfasts before you have to run out the door?

puffbrat

Chai latte and greek yogurt, bagel and cream cheese, or overnight oats.

Twiley510

Egg muffin cups with any additives you like-ham, bacon, onion, herbs, spices, cheese. Bake up a batch on Sunday and throw in a container. 30 seconds in the microwave.

Prosciutto and mozzarella wraps. I buy the Fiorucci brand 2-pack. Pair with a Wholly Guacamole cup.

Today, I ate a 4 ounce steak that I cooked last night.

Sometimes, I make 90-second bread and put almond butter and salt on it.

2tbsp skyr
Honey as you like
Pinch of salt
Topped with 1 banana and a few rasberrys as well as some chopped almonds.

All those ingredients are exchangeable and variable.

For very quick breakfasts, I'll usually go with one of the two options:

1. Hard boiled eggs (grab them from the fridge and go!)
2. Greek yogurt with sliced banana.

oatmeal for me... I just cook it in the microwave.

tinkerbellang83

Overnight Oats is my usual go to:

I make around 6 portions at a time:

300g Oats
125g Alpro Cherry Yoghurt
300ml Alpro Oat Milk
100g Dark Chocolate Chips
20g Cocoa Nibs

I usually then freeze the ones I don't need immediately and add the night before/on the day 50g Cherries and 40g Blueberries to each portion.

Works out approx 375 cals per portion. 9.2g Protein/ 10.5g Fat / 57.3g Carbs

Breakfast casserole (change up recipes, usually includes potato base, eggs, cheese, sausage).
Prep it on the weekend, reheat a serving each morning before leaving house.

On the weekends I portion out small cups of blueberries, strawberries, sliced almonds, walnuts, seeds, etc. Then all week long I have little plastic cup with the portions in them in the bottom of my fridge. In the morning I make oatmeal or plain nonfat Greek yogurt and add whatever toppings I want that morning.

Protein shakes or protein oatmeal

My breakfast today was coconut milk, frozen banana, frozen blueberries, and a few fresh blackberries blended into a smoothie.

OliverRaningerVegan

vegan breakfast, tea, coffee oat milk, orange(juice). ...

karenscfld

I like 1 cup of bran flakes with 1 cup of almond milk and a half a sliced banana

marnen

Protein bread
Mix
3 table spoons of flax flour,
1/2 tsp of baking powder,
one table spoon of olive oil,
some salt,
two table spoons of water and
one small egg

in a cup sized container. Mix all well and put in a microwave on 800 for 3 min.

I eat it with 250 ml of yogurt, but it can be used as substitute for bread so you can cut it in half and put some stuff inside (ham, cheese...). You can also add some seeds and/or spice into the mixture.

Alternate one day 2 eggs fried in butter and 4 or 5 slices of bacon with a cup of wellness herbal tea
Next day oatmeal with walnuts, blueberries and cinnamon with a cup of wellness herbal tea.

teecha

Cinnamon raisin Ezekiel toast with almond butter, or oatmeal and turkey sausage. I need protein in the morning and am intolerant to eggs so it can be challenging.

dnunny70

Egg Casserole--typically with sweet potato, egg, veggies and a meat protein.

Egg Muffins-cauliflower rice, spinach, egg, onion.

estherdragonbat

Greek yogurt over grapes (or occasionally, blueberries, banana, or clementine sections) topped by a crumbled granola bar.

sarabushby

- Porridge topped with berries and banana or with cinnamon and sugar and milk.
- Toast with marmalade
- Fruit & Fibre cereal with extra blueberries.

seltzermint555

egg taco with salsa
Greek yogurt or skyr
egg & toast w/ jam or nut butter
oatmeal with mix-ins (I like PB&J in mine)
overnight oats (made in advance, of course)
hard-boiled egg, cheese & carrot sticks
fruit & avocado toast w/ seasoning sprinkled on top
veggie (or other) sausage, egg & fruit
egg & toaster waffle w/ sugar-free syrup
quick omelet with mushrooms/peppers/onions (1 or 2 eggs), cheese optional
chia pudding (made in advance)

Btw all of these are under 300 calories and I pair 'em with black coffee. Easy to make/eat in roughly 15 minutes or less.

Thanks for all the ideas.

thenewkayla

Tomorrow I'll have a slice of grains & seed bread with peanut butter on top

renydo2

So I'm definitely a fan of Dannon Light and Fit Greek Yogurt - especially vanilla - and a banana or an apple
But I need to learn more about this protein oatmeal many of you are making.
Any favorite brands or tips on preparation?

Kashi Waffles with a smear of Walden Farms Calorie Free Jam, especially Orange Marmalade!
Thomas Bagel Thins or Sandwich Thins with a smear of light cream cheese and mesquite turkey or apple slices with cinnamon
Chocolate protein shake, ice, 3 drops Capella Marshmallow Flavor (0 calories) and packet of Swiss Miss Sensible Sweets Diet Cocoa (25 calories) blended makes an awesome frozen hot chocolate!
Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies https://cafedelites.com/healthy-2-ingredient-breakfast-cookies/
Oatmeal Smoothie with blended dates for sweetness
Quest Bars: Blueberry Muffin, Smores, Birthday Cake (has sprinkles!), Cinnamon Roll, Chocolate Sprinkled Donut, Maple Waffle, and Blueberry Cobbler (calories 165-185). Pro Tip: remove from wrapper and microwave 5-10 seconds, the smores bar is melty goodness!

My weekday breakfasts are packed and eaten at work. I do muffins (blueberry or blueberry bran) and cinnamon rolls. Nothing to big.

LaurieMick1531

I’m into breakfast tacos at the moment. They keep me going all morning
Corn tortillas
Spinach or zucchini
Avocado
Eggs
Hot sauce is a must
Ready in about 5 minutes!

Either two eggs (somewhat soft boiled so they are more satisfying and nutritious) or protein overnight oats. I make my protein overnight oats 3-5 servings at a time.

To make 4 servings, for example, I will take 1 cup rolled or steel cut oats (so 1/4 cup per serving), 2 scoops protein powder (1/2 serving per), about 2 tsp cinnamon, and water, mix well, and soak them in individual containers. You could also use your choice of milk for a little more protein and nutrition.

Lately I'll put in 1 packet each of those little 100 calorie fruit and nut snack packs, for sweetness, extra fiber and extra protein. I don't need any additional sweetener because the protein shake powder provides that. I could also add unsweetened cocoa powder, it's only 20 calories per teaspoon. A serving of oatmeal made that way is roughly 300 calories and has lots of good stuff. It also packs well in those cute little one cup containers.

Lately I've been having my protein oats, made as above, on my walking/weight lifting days and the eggs on my walking/stretching days. It's working out well so far.
