It's the end of the summer which means I have to go back to work next week?????

So I need some help...

During the school year I have to wake up at 5am so I can "prettify" and leave by 6. This doesn't give me much time to eat. Last year I would grab a piece of bread to eat on my way out the door. I would be starving by "lunch" at 9:36 and then be even more hungry when I got home at 3:30. I think if I can get some QUICK, EASY, and HEALTHY breakfast ideas for my next trip to the grocery store, I will do a much better job in staying on this "journey."

Help???

    Fruit, whole grain cereals you can munch on in the car.....fruit......instant oatmeal, not the best satisfying

    2 hard boiled egg whites, yogurt, and a banana.


    Perfect, healthy, less than 300 cals.

    Sometimes I cut out the banana if I want to keep it super low.


    Edit: you can cook your eggs like a week in advance, too.

    I make a whole bunch of oatmeal during the weekend and portion it out for each day.

    You could make a protein shake (yogurt/banana/peanut butter/ice).

    You could made a couple scrambled eggs and make yourself a little egg sammich.

    I've been known to eat pizza for breakfast....you don't have to limit to yourself to "breakfast" type foods. ;)

    If you like hot cereal I had submitted a recipe for slow cooker hot cereal. It is real filling and makes 4 servings.

    It may not sound healthy to do bacon but it isn't bad and if you like turkey bacon it could be lower in calories. Cook bacon ahead. One sandwich thin roll toasted with favorite Laughing Cow or WW wedge cheese spread on one side, baby spinach leaves, bacon for a portable and delicious bfast sandwich. I also cook a pot of steel cut oats for a few days and use a measuring scoop to portion it out, add my bberries and peanut butter when I warm it up.

    the microwave oats - 90 sec in the microwave and they're ready. :)

    or a bowl of muesli and milk - takes me 5 mins.

    Same story here, and it's so early in the a.m it's hard to eat breakfast. I eat a quick small breakfast like the ones that were mentioned above, and take a snack with me too. Usually string cheese or apple slices that I can eat at my desk between classes or during my prep.

    Hard boiled eggs would be easy to fix the night before. They keep me full longer. Protein bars, granola bars......

    I love breakfast burritos! Scramble one egg mixed with 1 Tablespoon or so of salsa. Put the cooked egg/salsa on a low carb tortilla (I like La Favorita Carb Cutter Multi Grain tortillas) with 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese and 2 tablespoons of black beans. You can make these ahead of time and just microwave them for 30-60 seconds before you walk out the door. 233 calories. Lots of protein to keep you full longer.
