    Usually a smoothie (I have over a dozen different variations so I don't always have the same one), cottage cheese with fresh blueberries, or if I'm not really hungry, a protein shake with maca root powder.

    EVERY morning (yes I know I'm flexible lol) >>> 1/2 cup oats cooked with water

    With a mixture of any of the following toppings or accompaniments :
    - Almonds
    - cocoa powder
    - honey
    - stevia
    - ground cinnamon
    - ground ginger
    - a piece of fruit (usually pear, banana or clementine)
    - 1/2 cup semi skimmed milk (to drink)

    Actually I pretty much had all of those this morning except the cocoa powder XD

    Easy no measuring breakfast:

    handfull or so of oats (around a 1/4-1/2 cup oats, but who measures these things?)
    bout 10 or so raisins
    bout 1/2-2/3 cup of Almond Breeze Vanilla low sugar almond milk!

    Zap it for 3 minutes ( i usually pack my lunch during this 3 minutes) and boom!

    Right now it's 6 oz chicken breast, 4 cherry tomatoes, 1 cup spinach, 2 to 3 eggs and some crushed dried chill. As well as a coffee or tea because I feel bad for anyone who has to deal with me before I've had caffine....

    Either biscuit with sausage gravy, hashbrowns with sausage gravy, or bacon with scrambled eggs and salsa.

    One slice whole wheat toast topped with 2 wedges of laughing cow light cheese, and 1/4 cup egg whites poached in the microwave with salt and pepper, fruit on the side.

    The toast, cheese and egg combo is surprisingly delicious, and satiating at approx 190 cals. Add your fruit of choice and it is still quite resonable in the calorie department.

    Coffee. Bad habit. I was doing well with eating breakfast but got back into the routine of skipping it. Lots of great ideas!

    Quick chilaquiles. 2 corn tortillas cut or ripped in small pieces sauteed with cooking spray for a minute, then add a couple tablespoons of salsa (either red or green), scramble in one or two eggs (or whites) and when cooked add a pinch of shredded cheese. Yummy!

    I have done this in the microwave as well just adding all but the cheese and cook about a minute mix, add cheese and cook 15 seconds more.

    Lots of great ideas here! Lately i've been doing a cup of oatmeal with a whole banana mashed into it while it's cooking on the stove. When I take it off the stove, I add lots of cinnamon and will sometimes add a bit of coconut water. Other times i'll have 2 eggs (scrambled or hard boiled) with sauteed spinach or kale. Recently started having 6-8 oz of plain greek yogurt with fresh chopped strawberries and cinnamon.

    I have been making mini omlettes.

    Makes 8 mini omlettes:

    5 eggs
    dash of semi skimmed milk
    1 red pepper
    handful of spinach
    1 red onion
    30g of half fat low fat cheese

    Fry the veg in low cal spray, then add to the egg and milk mixture. Then spread between 8 muffin cases, then top with a little cheese. Bake in the oven for 20mins at 200C.


    They are great- 2 mini omelettes will do each day for breakfast- just heat them up in the microwave for a minute.

    Roughly around 83 cal

    Plot twist: I don't eat breakfast.

    But if I did, it'd be warm oatmeal with Stevia or drenched in chocolate syrup.

    oatmeal (instant, quick or rolled) mixed with
    chia seeds
    flax seeds
    pumpkin seeds
    dried fruit

    stuff I sometimes put in
    brown sugar
    sesame seeds

    between 3-400 calories depending on what I put into it and how much. I also add a ton of water. Been eating it every day for a while now and LOVE it. Plus it's super easy to heat up at work and eat once I get there.

    I won't go so far as to say if my breakfast is to-go, it takes 10-15 mins to make but I like it that way. I am a vegetarian, hence no meat or eggs:

    Oats Upma (savory oats with Onion/tomato/veggies)
    Semolina Upma ( Savory snack with semolina and veggies)
    Poha (savory puffed rice cooked with Chilli/Onion/Potato)
    Thin wheat noodles with veggies
    Dosa (Indian crepe made with fermented batter of rice/finger millet and dehusked black gram)
    Quick oats with buttermilk and spice blend(salt+chilli+cumin powder+basil/coriander leaf)
    Whole wheat sandwich with Cucumber & tomato slices
    Idli (Steamed rice cakes of fermented batter)
    Crepe made of Chickpea flour

    Oatmeal: 1 cup soy milk, 4 tbsp oats, one banana and some pecans. I have the same thing every morning...
    I already forgot what I did for breakfast in the summer.
