    Whole eggs, bacon, and kale/spinach. Sometimes I add mushrooms, tomatoes, grain-free muffin... and always with coffee.

    Mmmm, breakfast.

    On weekdays, I eat a bowl of oatmeal. I make my own instant oatmeal "packets" with brown sugar and sugar free French Vanilla coffee creamer (yes, coffee creamer), add some almond milk, cinnamon, and 2 T of PB2 (chocolate or regular). About a minute in the microwave and I've got a yummy breakfast. Sometimes I'll also add a scoop of protein powder, which is just as delicious.

    On weekends, I like making cheesy scrambled eggs with turkey bacon and a piece of toast or whole wheat pancakes with sugar free syrup or, my most recent discovery, two pieces of French toast with a layer of whipped cream cheese in the middle, with a little syrup. If I'm eating breakfast on the run, it's McDonald's egg white delight with a fruit and yogurt parfait.

    My current favorite breakfast is "banana eggcakes" - 1 very ripe banana + 2 eggs and a little cinnamon beaten together. Sometimes I will also throw in a small handful of old fashioned oats and some blueberries. I cook this like a pancake over medium heat in a little coconut oil. Top with mashed strawberries sweetened with a little stevia in the raw. I usually get two good sized cakes out of this.

    This has been my go-to breakfast for months now:

    1 peice of Honey/Oat wheat bread with 1 tablespoon of PB on it and then top it with 2 eggs. The combination is actual quite awesome and I can make it two ways.

    If I had time, I'll leave the yolks runny and basically have soft boiled eggs on toast.

    If I'm short on time, I cook the eggs a little more so the yolk isn't runny, throw the eggs on top of the toast and eat it while I walk to my truck.

    Regardless of what I eat for solid food I usually have some ON Mocha Cappachino Whey with unsweetened Silk Vanilla. Using almond milk with whey makes it taste so much better and it's only 30 cal per cup.

    That sounds amazing! I'm going to have to try that this weekend. Of course I'll have to add some PB in there somewhere. :tongue:

    Today I had a protein shake made with Greek yogurt, protein powder, half a banana, and some dark chocolate Peanut Butter & Co PB.

    Yesterday I had 3/4c of steel cut oats with half a scoop of protein powder, half a banana, a splash of milk, and some dark chocolate Peanut Butter & Co PB.

    The day before that it was a protein shake with peaches in place of the banana & pb.

    Tomorrow it will probably be oatmeal and blueberries, because I need to use the last of my berries before they get all shrivelly and gross.

    Throw your blueberries and strawberries into the freezer and never worry about them going to mush before you use them!

    I usually have either boiled egg whites and avocado (sounds weird but it's yummy) or a smoothie with 1/2 banana, spinach, almond milk, ice, pb2(powdered peanut butter) and a tb of cocoa powder.

    Peanut butter & banana sandwich or a tomato sandwich with avocado on Dave's Killer Bread, which packs 6 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber per slice. Nummy :happy:

    I absolutely love scotch pancakes (average 60-80cals per pancake depending on brand) with about 5g of golden syrup on each one. Golden syrup surprisingly isn't bad at all in calories.

    I eat the same thing every workday. I get to work at 6:30 and have six Ritz crackers with 3/4 serving of Trader Joe's PB. On my 9 AM break, I eat a caramel apple breakfast cookie with a cup of 2% milk. Surprisingly, I don't find it boring.

    On weekends, I mix it up. It totally depends on how late I sleep in, what I'm doing that day, what time I plan to eat lunch and what I'm having for lunch. A lot of Saturdays, lunch *is* my breakfast. However, when I eat breakfast at home, I usually eat Better Oats oatmeal (or a bowl of cereal) made with 2% milk with a glass of OJ on the side and make sure that I have a high protein lunch. On Sundays when I go to church and know that I won't be eating for at least 4-5 hours, I'll have something with a good bit of protein like polenta with eggs and sausage.

    A local natural foods store sent out these recipes for overnight oatmeal with their latest flyer. I'm totes going to try these.
