I never give myself time to sit down and eat breakfast in the morning. What are some good quick breakfast foods I can prepare in 10-15min?

    Have you ever microwaved eggs? It may not sound good but they are delicious....just crack a couple eggs in a bowl, add a tiny bit of water and beat then microwave for a minute or two and stir inbetween.

    I make oatmeal on Sunday and then heat up a bowl in the microwave each morning. It lasts me the first part of the week and makes for some no-hassle breakfasts. (For bonus ease/laziness, I even make the overnight crock pot oatmeal so I can just set it up and forget it.)

    I eat a protein bar each morning, and I keep one in my purse in case my blood sugar drops. The best value are the Kashi TLC w/ 7 gms or protein and around $3.00 for 6 bars. Then special K 10 gm of protein but $6.00 for 5 bars. Then Nature Vally, 10 gms of protein but heavier on the fat, 6 bars for around $3.00

    You can eat a hard boiled egg and even take it with you in the morning! It's a "real" food, full of protein and can make your skin and hair look beautiful.

    I have a single egg pan, I crack my egg, break the yolk, and stick an everything bagel in the toaster, go about my business until the bagel pops, then I flip the egg over, put 3 slices of turkey and a slice of cheese on it. turn the burner off and let it stay on the burner until I'm done. put egg on bagel, wrap in paper towel and dash out the door. It's super quick and it's super yummy!!

    Instant oatmeal only takes 1 1/2 minutes to cook in the microwave. I have that with a banana or frozen blueberries mixed in.

    I wish i had more time in the mornings to make a big healthy breakfast, but we've been reviewing like mad to prepare for end of the year assessments so all i've been able to make lately is either oatmeal with fresh fruit, or an egg whites omelet with as many veggies as i can throw in.

    I've done eggs in the microwave too--it was a little trial and error (depending on the watts of your microwave). I'm a big oatmeal person on days I run...I'll do quick cook oats (2 min), add some banana, walnuts and maybe a little agave if I'm feeling sassy. On a really lazy day I'll do some greek yogurt, a lightly toasted whole wheat english mufffin with a little bit of peanut butter. Of course all of the above are accompanied by my cup of java!

    Also, I've done crockpot oatmeal. I bought a cheap timer at Walmart so I can set it and forget it. It is done when I wake up and I'll have extra for the next couple of days. Here is a recipe:

    Add in whatever fresh fruit, etc you like...even protein powder.

    Or you can add the eggs in a muffin tray and stick them in the oven they come out yummy! I only spray a little veggie oil on the tray so it dosent stick and actually I make all 6 and save the other ones in the fridge and re-heat as needed.

    This.
    I also make instant oatmeal (no it's not the healthiest but it's better than going for mcdonald's/tim horton's breakfasts which is what i would end up doing otherwise) or eat a bowl of cereal.
