I need breakfast idea help.

tobirhae

I eat breakfast at work in the mornings. I don't like to eat when I first get up because it upsets my stomach, so I wait and eat at work. Recently I've been eating English muffins with cream cheese, but I think I need something different. What can I eat for breakfast that's filling and I can prepare it at work? I don't have time to "make" anything in the mornings to bring with me either since I'm busy getting my 3 1/2 year old twins ready for daycare. Any recommendations for me? Thanks!

Protein Shakes (I use Lean Shakes from GNC), you can boil some eggs and have a hardboiled egg with it, I always boil a dozen for the week that way their ready for whenever I want one.

A bottled protein shake and a piece of fruit. I make smoothies and put the fruit in the shake, but that's a prepare at home thing.

I boil a bunch of eggs on Sunday night and have a few each morning.

If you have a microwave at work you can make instant oatmeal there.
Greek yogurt - you can mix in your favorite fruits, nuts, etc.

Hope this helps.

One lady I work with eats hardboiled eggs, good protein and not too many calories. If you dont mind them cold you can keep them in a fridge or cooler until you are ready to eat them.

I bought the Jimmy Dean Delights... Turkey, Egg White and Cheese on a muffin they are only 260 calories. I try to stay under 300 calories for breakfast.

instant oatmeal, hardboiled eggs, microwave eggs in a cup or mug takes like 1-2 mins and you can add cheese or any veggies too.

Jimmy Dean makes a turkey sausage, egg white, and cheese muffin(whole grain). It's not bad at all!! It can be prepared in the microwave!

Cottage Cheese and blueberries or apples and peanut butter are my go to breakfasts.

Fat Free greek yogurt!! I eat mine with a banana mixed in or other fruit, and half a scoop of Vanilla Whey Protein powder!! VERY filling, sticks with you a long time (because of the high protein) and is tasty!! 245 calories or under!!!

I like getting the thin bagels that are only 110 calories. I change it up with different flavors of cream cheese only 1tbsp. though. Other days I will have one package of cream of wheat, or oatmeal. Our coffee station at work has a hot water tap so it's super quick and easy. Sometimes in the afternoon when I'm really hungry I will have cream of wheat as a snack too. It's not as heavy as oatmeal. I like the maple brown sugar and the cinnabon flavors the best. A friend of mine suggested plain cream of wheat with fresh fruit. Last idea I have for you is oikos greek yogurt. Very yummy indeed!

Instant oatmeal with fruit! Any kind of fruit works like apple, raisins, berries.

I usually make a protein shake with almonds breeze, pb2, ice, and almond ext. I mix it up day to day so I don't get bored with the taste. Some days I grab a larabar and a piece of fruit.

I make an "egg thing" (frittata) that I bake up on Sunday and cut in slices. I bring it to work and microwave it. I just saute veggies (peppers, mushrooms, onions, asparagus, whatever) add spices (italian, spicy, whatever), turkey or chicken sausage cut up and then pour over eggs and egg whites with a bit of milk, sun dried tomato, and tiny bit of cheese (full flavored such as parm or romano) and bake until it's done (30-60 minutes depending on how thick it gets). I even freeze it.

I have also premade/frozen breakfast "burritos" to heat up.

I also sometimes make a pot of steel cut oatmeal and heat that up during the week. It keeps all week in the fridge. It will "gel up" and look a little gross but add some hot water and microwave and you'd never know it wasn't 'fresh"

My other fave breakfast is plain greek yogurt + fruit.

Or a turkey sandwich (why not?)

My current favorite is egg muffins. Do you have access to a microwave at work? Pop these in for 35 seconds and done!

this is a variation of the recipe i use

mooglysmom

1/2 cup of greek yogurt with fruit (blueberries, strawberries or bananas - or just honey), and a slice of toast with a little bit of Smart Balance Light (gluten free toast, but still :laugh: )

I could eat this everyday (and usually do, lol). It keeps me fuller longer.
