Your typical breakfast?

I love hearing about people's favorite/ everyday meals:)
My breakfast "formula" is protein+fruit+ good fat. For example, a cup of lowfat vanilla yogurt with a cup of fresh fruit and 1/4 cup of nuts or a banana egg pancake cooked with coconut oil and nut butter topping. Or simply a smoothie.
If I can't eat like this, I usually have a whole wheat food and eggs.
What is your usual breakfast?

I really enjoy the Lean Turkey Pepperoni sticks from Costco. I chop two up, throw them in the skillet with some eggs and coconut oil (not overly concerned with eating 'just' the whites, so, typically two eggs) and spinach (two big handfuls, which wilts pretty quickly) and top with some sirracha.
Curious to see others B-fasts ideas too!0 -
I have never liked breakfast. I'm never hungry, and some foods to early hurt my stomach. Like multi-vitamins? For some reason I can take them later, but not early in the day or I want to throw up.
My typical breakfast is a slim fast shake, and a boiled egg for protein.
Sometimes it is oatmeal made with milk.
A healthy cereal.
A shake of veggies and fruit, or just veggies.
My breakfasts tend to be quick and easy since it is not a meal I enjoy.0 -
Usually a bowl of cereal with milk a piece of fruit and sometimes an egg. I'm not a huge breakfast person either.0
-
1 egg, 1 serving of steel cut oats with hemp and chia seeds added (usually cooked with pureed pumpkin), green tea w/honey, and a chicken sausage on lifting days.0

I mix it up between a few standards.
1: Cereal with a cut-up banana added, 1 cup whole milk, Greek Yogurt (generally Chobani fruit-on the bottom)
2: Egg sandwich (2 pieces bacon, egg fried in bacon grease, cheddar or American cheese, English muffin), with either fruit or Greek yogurt
3: Pancakes with syrup with a side of bacon (this is generally a weekend thing, unless I am eating leftovers)
Sometimes I do a "McGriddle" style egg sandwich and use pancakes instead of the English muffin.0 -
Usually egg - either poached or scrambled - and toast. Or porridge.0
-
I either have baked old-fashioned oats with nut butter and almond milk along with a piece of fruit OR a veggie burrito, usually mushrooms, onions, spinach with veggie slices (i.e. fake cheese), veggie refried beans and coconut yogurt or actual sour cream in a whole grain tortilla. YUM! :drinker:0

Weekdays - an omelette with 1 egg, 1 slice of pancetta, 1 tbsp of parmesan, and 1/2 a cup of whatever greens I have on hand.
Weekends - half a pack of bacon, a big slice of sourdough, and 2 scrambled eggs.
I'm not very hungry in the morning so on weekdays I save my calories for lunch and dinner. On weekends I eat more because I go hiking right after breakfast, and I'm pretty sure I'd keel over after about 5 minutes if I tried doing that with nothing in me but a sad 97 calorie omelette.0 -
Lots of coffee. With sweet, flavored creamer (current fav: Int Delight - Almond Joy). Maybe some light yogurt. Maybe an English muffin. Sometimes no food. But always, always coffee. Sometimes too much.0
-
usually eggs and a fruit smoothie under 450 calories0

Today i had 2 scrambled eggs with 2 turkey sausage links= 205 calories
Also love to have: greek plain yogurt/berries/handful Special k cereal on top for crunch
1/2 whole wheat english muffin with PB/banana
eggo whole grain waffle with berries or PB0 -
I usually go for something quick and easy, so it's usually oats, 2 Weetabix, Fruit & Fibre or similar.
When I have time, I'll have anything I fancy... like a good full English breakfast. Bacon, egg, black (blood) pudding, beans, mushrooms, tomatoes, sausages, beans and toast... with a side of fruit juice and a proper cup of tea.0 -
45g of Jordan's granola I then add flaked almonds, pumpkin seeds, cranberrys and flex seed add to 70ml of almond milk
1 multi vitamin with iron & my daily cod liver oil tablet
I eat after my morning workout as I can't face it before, I train at 06:30 and eat at 7:30 - keeps me going until lunch0 -
If I'm not being lazy and actually get up earlier than when I need to get ready and go to work, then it'll be either scrambled eggs, a bowl of cereal, or some toast with peanut butter on it.
I've never really been a big breakfast eater. But man my stomach lets me have it when I skip it.0 -
bacon, bacon, and more bacon
usually I skip breakfast though, or blend some butter and coconut oil in my coffee.0 -
My typical breakfast is: steel cut oats with some almond milk or homemade coconut milk.I may add some banana slices or some almonds.
Sometimes i like to drink some coffee n milk with a bagel plus a little bit of butter or some almond cocoa butter.0 -
If I wake up early enough, I make a spinach and turkey sausage casserole with egg whites.
Just saute spinach, turkey sausage, mushrooms, and tomatoes in a pan. Pour it in a oven-safe dish. Pour egg whites on top and throw in oven for 30 min. On 350. I let it cook while I'm getting ready for work and take it with me to eat on the job.0 -
95% of the time it is 2 hard boiled eggs.
I might through an orange or other fruit in there.
If I go out (usually I don't) it is an omlet with pepperjack cheese onion and green pepper with homefries (clearly I don't go out often)0 -
almost always have either oatmeal with a tbsp of peanut butter in it, or I have greek yogurt w/ honey and walnuts!0
-
I usually have crunchy raisin bran with 2% milk, a banana, & two cups of coffee - one at home with a flavored creamer [lately it's been the last of my pumpkin spice creamer] & one I take with me to class with fat free half & half.0
-
I'm rarely hungry when I first wake up...I'm like the 1-2 hours after waking...Some of the things I do eat for breakfast include:
Protein Drinks (Special K if I am on the go)
Mini Quiche (I have lots of different recipes and I make about a dozen in the muffin tin. Great for portions - If I'm not hungry I'll eat one, if I'm hungry I'll have two or three.)
Egg Sandwiches
Gluten Free Banana Pancakes0 -
Coffee with heavy cream.
Then, much later, either a hardboiled egg or a Quest bar.0 -
I love breakfast! I always have different breakfast kicks, but right now my breakfasts have been consisting of:
3 boiled egg white
3 cherry tomatoes (halved)
1 orange
coffee
8oz almond milk
Fills me up and keeps me going for a good amount of time!0 -
Days I work out ( 5 days per week ): 2 strips reduced salt bacon. 2 fried eggs. Either sweet potato hash browns or 2 slices of weight watcher's bread, toasted, depending on whether or not I feel like grating sweet potatoes that day.
Days I don't work out: Oatmeal topped with No Sugar Added maple syrup and a hard boiled egg.0 -
I'm a creature of habit and I eat two poached eggs every morning with either sauteed kale, spinach or fried tomatoes. Sometimes I'll have a pita pocket if I feel extra hungry/want carbohydrates. I always have coffee with my breakfast, and I always drink at least 4 cups of water before I eat breakfast!0

Weekdays either: Two bacon or black pudding with 2 scrambled eggs.
or: Ham with mayonnaise spread on the slice
or: Two hard-boiled eggs with mayonnaise.
Weekends: Scrambled eggs or omelette with meat (leftovers, bacon or bratwurst) or some other leftovers.
I try to avoid too many simple carbs first thing, else I'll be flat on my back before lunch. (True story!!!)0 -
I normally don't eat breakfast just have a coffee or two but trying a different eating pattern this month so it's been either:
50g oats with 50g of apple sauce + coffee
or
2 slices bread with 20g peanut butter & 20g fruit spread (75% fruit) + coffee0 -
If I don't start the day with protein, I'm screwed for the rest of the day. Thus, I start with 2 fried eggs and a few cups of coffee. I eat fruit and nuts when I get to work for a morning snack0
-
On the days I'm home its usually some wholewheat bread with an omelette
On the days I'm in Uni I don't have time for a good breakfast so I usually have a protein bar on the go. Last week I made some low sugar wholewheat blueberry muffins though which were great on the go0 -
BREAKFAST!!!! My favourite meal of the day.... I absolutely LOVE overnight oats
It's my Monday - Friday breakfast - yum!
1/3 Cup Wholegrain Rolled Oats, 1 Tsp Chia Seeds, 2/3 Cup Almond Milk, 1 Splenda + Cinnamon soaked overnight in a jar, ready to eat in the morning at work0
