Breakfasts To-Go ...?

Rae123456

I usually end up sprinting for the door in the morning and making a quick stop at the gas station on my way out of town. Do any of you have good suggestions for recipes/breakfasts that are quick, easy, and "to-go"?

protein bar and a banana is what I eat pretty much every day for breakfast

this week I mixed eggs, mushrooms, spinach and feta cheese in a cassarole dish and baked. When done I cut it up and stored it in 5 containers for the work week so I can grab, heat up and go.

I change it up weekly, you can use any combo of meat and/or veggies you want

Got to be scrambled eggs, with mushrooms and peppers. I make a big batch of this and keep in the fridge. I then wrap in a flour tortilla , heat in the microwave 1 minute and out I go

1 slice of toast
2 hard boiled eggs sliced and put on top
1 slice of cheese

Put it in toaster oven until cheese is melted...whalah portable breakfast.

Plus if you have them all made and sliced before hand then it's even faster.

A lot of times I have oatmeal in the morning, but I have the time to sit down and eat it. But if I don't feel like making it I have a Belvita Soft-Baked biscuit. I found out that the soft-baked Belvita biscuits are 40 calories less than the normal ones. They're a quick thing to grab and you can eat them on the go.

See, I wasn't sure that eggs would re-heat that well. It's good to know that others have done it with no problems!

Has anyone ever tried the "Ninja" (or whatever it's called) to make smoothies in the morning?

Protein shake and a piece of fruit or english muffin.

Pre-made quiches/frittatas. Instead of a casserole pan (which would probably be faster), I make them in cupcake tins so that they are pre-portioned and warm (or even thaw) out nicely. My fave so far is half ounce of black forest ham wrapped around the cup, 2 leaves of spinach, 5g of shredded mozzerella, a whole egg, and a sprinkle of herbed parmesan. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. 30s in the microwave out of the fridge, 1 minute out of the freezer. 108 cals a piece.

I do the same thing with meatloaf and sometimes I mix and match. Those are 120 a piece.

Sounds great!

You can also bake this type of thing in a muffin pan for even easier portability (plus muffin sized things are just really cute)

I eat a protein bar as I drive to work every day. A couple of times I've pre-made some egg muffins (scrambled egg/veggies/ham or turkey baked in a muffin tin) and then freeze them...you just pop them in the microwave for 2 min. and those a great on the go as well.

I work from home now so my breakfasts are kind of ...ornate now, lol.

But before that, I was a notorious snooze button addict so these were my go to's.

Hardboiled eggs and roasted potatoes
Fridge oatmeal/Overnight oatmeal
Protein bar + fruit

If I had a couple of minutes, I would microwave a scrambled egg over leftover vegetables and precooked sausage.

The cupcake tin idea is great! Do you usually have to put something in first to "grease" it or is it pretty non-stick?

Summer oats are great to go http://www.theyummylife.com/Refrigerator_Oatmeal
add in some protein powder if you like and you have a complete meal.

You don't need anything if you line the tin with the ham, but if you were just going to put cubed ham (or other meat) in the bottom of the tin, then I would give the tin a quick spray. The meatloaf also greases itself.

Yes I tried the whole muffin things but found it annoying and harder to clean up, mostly because I have a cheap muffin pan and it always stuck to it. I found it easier to throw it all in the cassarole dish instead of pouring into muffin tins, must be the laziness in me.

I use my good old Osterizer blender for smoothies. The basic one: soy or almond milk (Vanilla works great), banana, frozen fruit. Blend. It really takes 30 seconds. If I have time to be fancy I add a scoop of protein powder, or yogurt, flax seed, fresh fruit, greens, etc, instant coffee (though I'm off coffee now), peanut butter, etc.

My mom has a mini Ninja and the only thing I've made in it so far is fresh salsa lol. But my brother has used it for smoothies and they are pretty good. He just threw in whatever fruits he wanted and some chia seeds I believe and blended it. I tasted it and it was pretty good, I just never have the time or I don't really know what to put into my smoothies because I don't know what fruits I would like in them.
