bored with breakfast. ideas?

abbylove08

im getting tired of the same ol', same ol'. my breakfasts rotate b/w the following:

egg white/cheese english muffin w/ veggie sausage and fruit
waffles with egg whites and fruit
bagel with cream cheese, egg whites, and fruit

i usually stick with the egg whites because they keep me full. i'm teaching, so after 630, i don't see food again until 1140, so i gotta eat something that will hold me over (sometimes i can sneak in some fruit before lunch). i like to keep it around 300 cals.

i'm open to any yummy, filling suggestions

My favorite breakfast is:
2 Kashi go Lean Waffles topped with 1/2 cup blueberry topping (1/2 cup blueberries, tbsp sugar free syrup microwaved for about 45 seconds)
1/2 cup egg beaters
1/2 serving almonds (about 14)

Total calories = 310

Has a good balance of protein and carbs - keeps me satisfied for a good amount of time.

nothing wrong with dinner for breakfast and it is agood idea to have a larger meal for breakfast'
have a sirloin steak....or a grilled chicken with black beans...flip yourmeals for a few days and have some fun

I'm up for suggestions too. I usually have buiscuits & gravy or nothing. I need a variety that doesn't cost much.

In The Fitness magazine I just got it says::

Having a big breakfast doesnt mean you have to nibble a tiny salad for dinner. If you're trying to lose weight, stick to a 1,600- calories-a-day plan, aiming for 400-500 calories at each meal with enough reserved for a snack or two.

Here are some ideas per the magazine:

8 inch tortilla
2 oz canadian bacon
2 oz cheese
4 oz fruit juice
(stick in the microwave for 1 min on high)
total calories 460

1 slice of whole-wheat veggie pizza
1 16-oz skim milk latte
total calories 400


(at starbucks)-
1 turkey bacon egg and white cheddar breakfast sandwich
1 short *8oz* caffe latte with skim milk
total calories 420


6oz low fat vanilla yogurt
1 scoop whey protein powder
1/2 cup berries
1oz nuts
total calories 439

my favorite breakfast right now, and I am so hooked, is 1 cup of fiber 1 honey clusters, half a cup of blueberries and half a cup of skim milk... I know I should be having some protein in there too, maybe throw some almonds on top?

253 calories, with 1 oz almonds 413 calories

try peanut butter and sliced apples on 2 pieces of whole grain bread. This way you get your protein, carbs, and a fruit. Oh, and don't forget 1/2 cup of skim milk!! Also, eat the rest of the apple after your sandwich. Its quick and easy, and can be taken on the run.

I personally have been having dinner for breakfast lately. It keeps me full for longer. The other morning I had a 6inch subway turkey breast & ham on whole wheat loaded with veggies, no cheese and mustard. And an apple. Total calories about 335 (give or take a few for the mustard and depending on the size of the apple). After that eat a normal lunch and then have your breakfast food for dinner.

I like that idea. :flowerforyou:

I'm bored with breakfast too and anything with peanut butter grabs my attention! Thanks!
