Food inspiration, or what's for breakfast?

Hmmmm. Have some sausages in the freezer and they never come out because they require thawing and cooking.... sort of like a vicious cycle🤯
Coffee for now! Black! Dark! Strong!😎1 -
Frozen sausages - i don’t bother to thaw - just stick ‘em in AF! 🤭🤫😱
Breakfast was yoghurt with strawberries - thawed them though🍓❄️3 -
Ok, I will bite!😂 AF! 🤯????
I've been thinking things that would be kittened out.... but it might be an air fryer!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣😎1 -
It is! Brought at the height of the craze & relegated to cooking sausages, chicken & potato wedges! Cost the OH a fortune IMO!2
-
So put the sausage in the Air Fryer as if, frozen... and fry away... hmm... that's actually not a bad idea!!!0

Individual cup of Fage 2% plain yogurt, some mashed up strawberries, splash of vanilla and 2 small squirts of liquid sucralose.2

How big is your cup Nic?
Yooly sounds like she is talking from experience above!1 -
I have no air fryer experience - personally prefer pots, pans and stove/oven. However hubby and son are BIG air fryer and Instapot users. After work son likes quick meals. So he has used his air fryer successfully with defrosted and frozen foods. It’s apparently just a matter of practice and timing. His favorites are pork tenderloin and sausages.1

You are a woman after my heart, Yooly. Pots, pans, stove, oven, knives, cutting board.1

Ahh! Definitely NOT the size of "cups" I'm using which HAVE a plastic tub lid in ADDITION to the foil/or plastic
Glad to keep hearing that you're improving and handling a wider variety of stuff!0 -

I buy those too, lol. I call them "tubs" of yogurt, vs the individually snack-size "cups".
The Two good yogurts are my favorite to pack to work. I have Meyer lemon, black cherry and mixed berry for work this week.2 -
Yes .. . they're cute little thingies!!!
I used to get the Yoplait 0% 24 packs in various flavours before they changed their formula and became somewhat chalkey.
Even had a whole process going on how to pierce the bottom to speed up the up-ending of the little cup into a bowl where 4 of a kind (or 6 or so of complimentary kinds) would briefly stay on their way to my tummy 😋
Was beautiful when it worked but sad when I had to do the spoon clean up to avoid sending goodness to the recycle bin!1 -
Good Morning! Hope everyone had a good weekend!
Breakfast is quick & simple here today - Greek Yoghurt & fresh berries as out first thing! Comes in at 150 kcals - so good numbers - here’s hoping rest of day goes the same!3 -
Hi all! Breakfast as a traybake - usual bacon, sausage, egg, tomatoes, mushrooms, egg - and a slice of black pudding 😍
Whopping 600 cals with my mug of tea 😳2 -

Now that’s a hearty breakfast! My piddling breakfast - plain yogurt, one boiled egg, berries- barely hit 250 calories. I ate after an hour spent at the gym. Now I’m ravenous……..2 -

Yeah… I find I’m ravenous after yoghurt & fruit, but your breakfast is so much healthier …. Mind you, I was so stuffed, did not eat until supper, except for some fruit - a nectarine & pear.
Two days within calories… not bad if I say so myself!3 -
Yooly might be time to experiment after gym
Come back and instead of generate hungry day with normal breakfast go for bigger more solid brunch breakfast and food comma.
Possibly combine breakfast lunch calories and move dinner a bit earlier to compensate for missed lunch once you wake up from the comma nap.
Worth a try😎2 -
Just a thought Yooly,,,that I ‘m sure you will have considered. - post gym & eggs? Breakfast here was an omlette today - 20 g cheese, spring onion & handful of spinach - feel satiated & full….. often find an egg a good, filling, low calorie, & for me, a zero carb option 😉0
-
But but but - hubby makes my post gym breakfast. It’s a marriage ritual. Most days a simple breakfast suffices but gym days not so much. I’m thinking I’ll plan something filling and low cal for 10 am. It’s the midway point between breakfast and lunch.2
-
Oh…I remember….well…you can’t change that because is so lovely! Concur with the later, filling snack - or would hubby consider adding some protein to the happy face?! Maybe a lovely bit of cheese …. Yum…..
BTW, I would love & need that happy face after a gym session!)1 -
Sunny side face 😎1

Berries & full fat Greek style yoghurt & tea - nice & simple & quick! Only 180 cals too.
Unfortunately, 1/2 currant pasty for 11’ sees 🙄1 -
Oh how dainty you are Ms Tea! Here I am having consumed my MINUSCULE 220Cal SNACK of 248g Skyr 0% + 120g dole fruit cup... and looking for the REST OF IT!!!

That was me too - hence the 1/2 currant pasty - which I stole out of the OH’s hands! Nowt dainty here Mr PAV!!
Today started off with pomegrannet seeds and Greek style yoghurt - ended up baking English! Bacon, sausage, mushrooms & egg!
Can tell it’s “ one of those days” - trying to pre-empt and put some eggs on to boil for snacks later!
🙄🥴😵💫😳🤪

Eggs are actually a great stop the hunger snack. When desperate to not eat a meal or candy or chips/crisps I've often got the two pre boiled egg packs from the convenience store. A bit of a sad snack just by themselves or with a pickle pouch (7-11 sells snack size pouches of pickles).... but it can give me a couple of hours for 200 Cal which is not a bad deal sometimes2
-
I'm impressed with your pre-emptive snack!
I'm impressed with buying a pickle pouch from 7-11. I have other horrible desires/plans when I walk through those doors. (which thank goodness is pretty rare - every 3 or 4 months).2 -
It doesn't always work out for me either!
7-11 encounters depend on goals but mostly sleep state.
You've only been informed of the muscle Milk, 2% 500ml milk, (spicy hot) pickles, eggs, cheese/pepperoni packs, banana category of snacks.
Small hot chocolate, a Charleston chew, or a single oh Henry, mr big, 5 mojo's, or two chicken strips and 3 Mojo's, or a corn dog are the middle ground
The other end is when multiples start.
So apple fritter which always comes with coffee or hot chocolate and usually at night would be hot chocolate. or sandwiches because chips tend to get added1
