    My favorite is eggs, red onions, and cheese. Sometimes a banana or grapes on the side.

    My ideal breakfast: one I don't have to make...plus coffee. Sadly, I do the bulk of the cooking when my family is in one place, and all of it when I'm on my own...
    My idea of a perfect breakfast includes my family sitting down to the table to eat in harmony. But that's just silly, really.

    Next best? Crockpot steel cut oats with dried fruit. It takes 9 days for me to finish a crockpot full (pease porridge hot?), so I only need to cook once, then reheat...

    Greek yogurt, fruit (right now, I'm loving peaches), and 2 slices of 35 calorie wheat toast with no calorie butter spray or a whole wheat english muffin. I also drink 32-48oz of water with my breakfast.

    Usually scrambled eggs with European butter....but as of late with the heat it has been a frozen banana with peanutbutter, pecan butter, or chocolate coconut butter.

    I dont eat till about 1030 and I have 2 servings of Steel Cut oats mix in 1 serving of Fage 0 greek yougurt and 1 apple about 500 cal. Every now I then I will have a apple on the way to work or a protein shake that would be around 730am. I normally get a nice run in at my lunch hour at work which is at about 11:30

    Well, I consider breakfast my most important meal, mostly because what I eat seems to set the tone for the rest of my day. I have about 6 different things than I eat, sometimes two of them together in smaller portions (I always try to get protein and carbs).

    1. 1/2 cup oats, 1 tsp brown sugar, 1 tbsp smuckers natural chunky peanut butter
    2. 1 whole wheat bagel thin, 1 tbsp S.N.C. peanut butter, 1/2 banana
    3. 2 whole eggs, omelette style with 1 mushroom, and 1/8 cup athenos feta
    4. 1 cup oatmeal squares, 1 cup kashi fiber twigs, 1/2 cup skim milk
    5. 1 smoothie: 1/3 cup frozen strawberries, 1/3 cup frozen mango, 1/3 cup frozen blueberries, 2/3 cup greek plain nonfat yogurt, 1/2 cup baby kale, 1/2 scoop golden standard vanilla protein powder
    6. 2 pieces 45 calorie wheat bread, 2 eggs, 1/4 cup feta cheese.

    A year ago, I used to skip breakfast or I hated it. Now it is my favorite meal of the day.

    I love apple cinnamon sugar free oatmeal with a small, chopped up apple, and banana but this takes forever in the morning so I live on fruit loops and light soy milk. I'm half embarrassed. Lmao I'm like a kid, but at 5 am ya just autopilot your way through 200 calories. haha

    What I WANT: Like a pound of fried bacon, egg/cheese/mushroom omelette, toast, and a BIG glass of milk with a donut to boot.

    What I HAVE: 2 small scrambled eggs, 1 piece of oat toast, 1 c. of sliced strawberries, 1/2 c. grapes, and a BIG glass of ice water.

    What I "want" surely attributed to where I am right now! But oooooohhhhh, bacon; my downfall. So it's not in my house anymore. I have to laugh when them "Beggin' Strips" dog treats commercials come on TV, because if I was a dog, that would SO be me!! LOL!!

    My IDEAL breakfast is one that someone else makes for me. My USUAL breakfast is a breakfast shake and coffee with cream, no sugar. The shake consists of:

    Kefir (homemade)
    wheat germ
    wheat bran
    banana
    frozen blueberries
    psyllium husks
    bee pollen

    1) Oat bran pancake with blueberries and raspberries
    2) Mushroom omelet with 1 whole egg and 2 eggwhites and 75 grams of Turkey breast
    3) 3 slices of whole wheat bread, light cream cheese and a cup of vitalinea yoghurt with fruit on the side (most calories)

    I like steamed eggs as well, and I always eat a piece of fruit at breakfast (most of the time an orange)

    breakfast is my favorite meal! i believe it's pretty important to eat it as well.

    1. oatmeal topped with cinnamon and fresh fruit (strawberries or bananas)
    2. whole wheat english muffin with cooked egg whites and raw spinach (maybe a little cheese too).
    3. Chobani greek yogurt-apple cinnamon flavor is the best, topped with granola and maybe fruit.

    I eat a granola bar and some kind of fruit or cheese, but I would love to have McDonalds breakfast every day. I love McDonalds breakfast!

    I wake up at 7am. I eat breakfast at 10am.

    Quaker oat so simple porridge ,,,preferably the sultana, raisin and cranberry flavour, with semi skimmed milk and a cup of coffee....or 2, although I am trying to reduce the coffee, as I want to try to flatten my tummy a bit.

    I have a cookbook also that recommends a mixture of oats, pecans, flax oil, honey lemon and yoghurt ...and that's quite nice too :)

    Favorite meal Bacon, eggs, hashbrowns, beans, toast...I have this maybe once a month, and call it "my trucker breakfast'

    most other days, it's cereal and fruit, or a toasted egg sammich.

    During the week I wake up around 6:45 a.m. and have a cup of chocolate soy milk around 7:00.

    On the weekends I usually skip breakfast.

    My absolute favorite is Chocolate Oatmeal (I save it for special occasions), recipe adapted from chocolatecoveredkatie.com

    1 ripe banana, sliced/mashed (doesn't matter, since it will caramelize)
    1/2 cup rolled (not quick) oats
    1 cup water (or milk/milk alternative)

    Combine above ingredients & cook in a pot, rice cooker, or microwave.

    Stir in:
    1 T unsweetened cocoa powder (I use Hershey's)
    1/2 T unsweetened dark cocoa powder (I use Hershey's Special Dark)
    1/4 tsp vanilla extract
    1 pkt (or tablespoon) stevia (I use Truvia, you could also use table sugar)
    pinch of salt
    5-10 dark chocolate chips (optional, but delicious)

    Yum. Yum. Yum. :D

    Egg white omelet with tomatoes, onions, feta cheese and mushrooms. Spinach too if available. It's very low fat, quite filling and super delicious.

    I also like variety too and foods that taste good within moderation.

    two eggs, two slices of either reduced sodium ham or canadian bacon, a little bit of mild cheddar either on an english muffin or a flat bread. That with a cup of earl gray/cream is 309 calories and 26g of protein and I'm rarely hungry before lunch. I don't eat it every day but I have to have my eggs.
