    I rotate a two standards for breakfast. I'm not always necessarily hungry but I'll still make something and bring it to work with me.

    1. Growing oatmeal bowl (from Hungry Girl, I think). 1/2 old fashioned oats, cup of water, cup of almond milk cooked on the stove for 15 minutes or so. I usually add a tablespoon of nut butter to this.

    2. 2 eggs, 2 egg whites scrambled with a veggie sauteed in a little olive oil (my standards are bell peppers, zucchini, mushrooms) with two wedges of laughing cow cheese of different varieties. This is a good way for me to use veggies that might be a tad past their prime. Usually this ends up stretching into two breakfasts. I'll add an english muffin with some peanut butter or butter and jam if I'm really hungry.

    two egg whites microwaved with 1/8 cup of shredded cheese and toast or a banana egg pancake with 1/4 c. of quick cooking oats thrown in (for fiber and fluff) or a protein bar of some kind and yogurt all of those with coffee and half and half are the three things I eat most often.

    tomorrow, I am off from work and will make sausage biscuits because I'll have time. Sometimes I eat a GF muffin and yogurt if I am craving sugar. Sometimes I make actual GF pancakes or French toast for my kids on Saturdays, but not very often.

    1 packet of oatmeal with some combo of the following add-ins: chia seeds, flax seeds, sesame seeds, raw pumpkin seeds, dried fruit. Add water and microwave. Yummy.

    Sunday - Friday:
    7am breakfast 2 egg whites with pepper and a dab of ketchup
    10am breakfast 1/4 cup plain oatmeal with an equal packet

    Saturday breakfast
    1 whole egg with a bread - either toast / english muffin etc

    A whopping 40 calories for 7am and then 75 calories at 10am? How many calories are you eating each day? This is hardly "breakfast" by my standards but hey, I guess we're all different.

    I definitely eat the same things over and over...I have to get up early, and get 2 elementary school aged kids together, so we have to manage our time down to the minute to get out the door on time

    My "go to" breakfasts are:

    organic porridge oats with soy milk, topped with cinnamon/coconut sugar/banana
    nature's path pumpkin flax cereal with soy milk and a banana
    whole wheat bagel thin with one piece of canadian bacon/one egg/half a slice of organic cheddar
    boiled eggs (2 whites/one yolk) and berries

    and coffee/muffin on my cheat days LOL

    I eat salad. Something with lots of hot sauce. It wakes you up. I've never understood why our culture generally eats sugary foods early in the day, anyone know?

    I'm not a breakfast person and I believe that "breakfast food" is a crock. During the week I have been having shredded chicken with ranch dressing on corn thins. On the weekend, I tend to just wait for lunch.

    Usually some combination of fruit (of late, 1 cup of blueberries), 1/2 cup plain yogurt (or one cup if I'm extra hungry), 1/4 cup of homemade granola with nuts for crunch. And lots of coffee with a little bit of cream. Once in a while, eggs and toast or oatmeal. I actually find that a high-protein breakfast makes me hungry sooner than one with a little protein, some carbs, and quite a bit of fiber.

    One of my favorite lunches/quick dinners (though I cook the kale lightly.)

    For breakfast I always start with any kind of tea. Usually green tea.
    I drink it mostly plain or for black or chai teas I add one packet of stevia and a serving of coconut creamer.

    For breakfast I eat:

    1. hard boiled eggs, side of steamed spinach
    2. low sodium cottage cheese with diced cucumbers and tomatoes
    3. plain greek yogurt with 1/4 cup fresh berries, half a serving of chopped walnuts and a packet of stevia
    4. half a serving of long cook oats with half an apple, stevia and cinnamon (once a week as a treat)
