    Cream of wheat or add hot milk to a bowl of mini shredded wheat bits. Turkey sausage is great.

    where are you in the world? If in the UK, i'd recommend vogels soya and linseed bread, toasted with whatever spreads etc you do like. It's lovely, got a decent protein and fiber content (better than oatmeal) and is dead easy for breakfast. I love my porridge, but I alternate it with this.

    Good grief, girl!! Are you old enough to have seen "When Harry Met Sally"? :laugh: That is YOU! I love eggs and especially dinner for breakfast, so I'm not going to be any help to you. Good luck -- and do NOT skip breakfast!!

    I make a big pancake out of a packet of choc chip oatmeal, an egg white and a 1/4 cup of water, with Cary's SF syrup, delish for under 200 calories.

    Toast with real fruit jam and turkey sausage or some other breakfast meat you enjoy & that isn't a heart attack on a plate.

    I looked up "healthy breakfast muffins" and found a few recipes I liked and just made a batch. You can freeze them, then in the morning, grab one and microwave for like 35-45 seconds and its nice and hot :)

    And for recipes that call for oatmeal, sometimes I throw the oatmeal into a food processor so the oatmeal is more "flour-y"

    Hope this helps anyone :)

    Brown rice with raisins and cinnamon.. serve with milk and a hint of sweetener

    Ful (fava beans smashed with some garlic and salt and drizzled with olive oil) serve warm with some pita bread and scoop it up like you would hummus. This is traditional breakfast in Lebanon

    hot apples and cinnamon- cut up apples and put in a small pan with a 2 tablespoons of water and some cinnamon. cover and cook until apples are a little tender. If you want an apple pie consistency to the apples take a tablespoon of water and dissolve a heaping teaspoon of corn starch in it and then pour into your apples and cook for about a minute until the juice thickens. add more water if necessary.

    Have you tried steel cut oats? They are rolled oatmeals way more awesome and dignified brother. I would suggest baking some muffins or scones, as well. There are easy ways to make recipes healthier/vegan/gluten-free if you so choose. Also, add cinnamon, cardamom and ginger spices to your morning breakfast. They will warm you right up! Frozen buckwheat waffles are a delicious breakfast stand-in. Tofu scramble works, too.

    Cream of Wheat.. I love it. I use 1 pack of stevia and 1/2 Tbs butter-the real thing for two servings. It takes 3 min in the microwave. You could put apple butter in it too if you want it sweeter.

    My sister gave me a great idea you take turkey sausage that comes in a roll in the freezer section (Jennie O makes a good one) cook that and mix with low fat melted cheese. Use Thomas' english muffin they make one that is only 100 calories per roll. open the muffin and on each side put the sausage mixture then freeze it when ready to eat just put in the oven at 350 deg for 12 min and you have a hot breakfast. I have made them for a week before they keep well in the freezer.

    Hot cereal !

    Grape nuts !

    Raisin Bran !

    Its pretty easy... you make it like your normally going to make cereal then toss it in the microwave and heat it up !

    Hot GrapeNuts are awesome kinda high in the calorie count for cereal but half of cup of warm GrapeNuts usually turns into a whole bowl. Add some fruit and your looking at like 250 per serving !
