What do you eat for breakfast?

tikamacphee

I seem to eat the same things for breakfast every day (Quaker Oats, Weetabix etc) i'm wondering what everyone else has - help me out with some new ideas please I'm so bored of the same stuff every day

ninerbuff

I eat late every night (just finished snacking) so I personally don't eat any breakfast. How more boring is that? First daily meal is around 1:00pm.

Typically I have 1 cup Special K Red Berries cereal, 1 Morningstar sausage patty, 2 scrambled eggs, and 1 cup light chocolate soy milk. Sometimes I'll sub a Baked Cranberry Chocolate Chip Oatmeal for the cereal and Morningstar bacon for the sausage.

I love Belvita breakfast biscuits, especially the honey and nut ones. They are yummy and easy, just unwrap and nom nom. 4 biscuits is about 230 calories and they are quite filling, also have vitamins added, what's not to like?

I also eat fruit some days (mostly when I've run out of biscuits!) and cereal occasionally.

2 eggs with Bell peppers, tomatoes, onion and 1 tb cheese is my fave. Or Chobani and a piece of fruit. Or whole wheat toast and all-natural pb and some milk. Leftover "refried" (aka squished) beans in a whole wheat tortilla is very yummy for breakfast, too. Oh, and Turkey bacon is awesome if you eat meat.

I like to make my own breakfast burrito's scramble up 1 whole egg and 1-2 egg whites, add 1/8 cup cheese of your choosing, drizzle a little taco sauce over the top wrap it up and nummy. Sometimes I'll add a piece of sausage as well.

I aim for protein at breakfast time, and I don't really like cereals. So I alternate between:

Eggs - scrambled, in the microwave, with mushrooms, cheese, ham, spinach, whatever I have to hand

Porridge - sometimes Bircher Muesli or overnight oats - soak the oats in fruit juice or water in the fridge overnight. Add some dried fruit at this stage if liked. In the morning grate an apple into it, add a blob of yoghurt, some nuts, seeds, drizzle of honey....

Toast: - I keep a loaf of good quality seeded bread in the freezer, and every few days I'll toast a slice straight from the freezer, and top with a smear of marmite and some cottage cheese, add a sprinkle of seeds. Or toast with peanut butter.

Greek yoghurt - with fruit, nuts, seeds, or made into a smoothie.

Smoked fish - salmon or mackerel.

deniseearheart

southwestern egg beaters with fat free american cheese and a sandwich thin toasted with heart smart butter :-)

caraiselite

steak, grilled veggies, eggs (if i can find someone to cook them for me)

pastrami on a low carb pita is my favourite.

almond flour pancakes.

pecans, tomatoes, and cucumbers.

LittleNicci

do you like eggs? get the little carton of egg beaters southwestern style. 3 tablespoons=1 egg. throw it in a bowl and microwave it or pan fry it, toss it into a whole wheat tortilla and run out the door! (add cheese if you like)

do you like smoothies? get a bag of frozen mixed fruit and some juice or milk, add a cup of each to your blender with a tablespoon of flax oil and a fresh banana. it'll keep you full for a long time and its portable!

rachmaree

I eat the same thing every morning... 40grams oats one whole egg three egg whites, half a teaspoon cinnamon, quarter of a chopped apple all mixed up and cooked as a pancake in a teaspoon of coconut oil

FatStoatLondon

Omelette made with 2 eggs and seasoning, filled with 50g of rough chopped bacon or 2 soft boiled eggs with crackers. Yum scrum in my tum.

Bug207

Either a homemade smoothie (Chobani Strawberry Yogurt, Crystal Light Lemonade, strawberries, pineapple, and ice), a Chobani yogurt, or weirdly enough, pasta with olive oil and crushed red peppers.

Jishmeister

Lately, my breakfasts have been either a cup of kix cereal with a cup of non fat milk, or 3/4 cup of fiber one cereal with a cup of milk. Sometimes, I'll cook a couple eggs (scrambled or over easy) with 2 slices of Jennie-O lean turkey bacon slices (20 calories per slice) with one tortilla.

tikamacphee

Wow - thank you for loads of ideas this morning i had egg scrambled in the microwave and a slice of toast and a glass of milk I've never tried a smoothie, do i just whack it all in the blender and hope for the best?

Belvita are on offer in my local Co-Op store (I am in the UK) so I may get some to try today

Thank you again, theres loads of different things in there for me to try

Typical is 2 scrambled or fried eggs and some egg whites and a teaspoon of organic coconut butter, a veggie with it like spinach thrown in or stir-fried organic zucchini, some salsa thrown in for flavor. That's pretty typical for me.

tracyjoys

Work days = protein shake. (In blender: 1C unsweetened coconut milk, 1 scoop Now Sports 100% whey protein powder (unflavored, no additives), 1T chia seeds, 1T stevia in the raw, dash of cinnamon, 5 frozen strawberries.) You can mix up the fruit to change things up. i sometimes use peaches, pineapple, raspberries/blueberries, banana + 1T hershey's unsweetened cocoa powder, etc.

Non-work days = 3 egg omelet w/sauteed veggies. Whatever is in the fridge; peppers, onions, mushrooms, etc. Sometimes I'll add in chicken sausage. And a sprinkle of cheese with salt & pepper. Yummo!

Werglum

I pretty much have a winter breakfast and a summer breakfast - at the moment it is winter here so I have:
porridge made with:
40g oats
7g ground linseed
cinnamon
Then I put frozen blueberries and skim milk on top - Yummo!!

In summer I have pretty much exactly the same but eat it raw, sometimes I switch the blueberries for raisins as they tend to freeze the milk!

70moretogo

I usually have three egg whites cooked with one tablespoon of bacon bits and two mushrooms. Use a nonstick pan instead of cooking sprays or oil. Serve with sliced green onions, a quarter of an avocado, a tablespoon of salsa, a tablespoon of light sour cream on top. It is great. It is filling and healthy. :happy:

Snow__White

Hi Tika

In answer to your question, yes just whack it in the blender, you would be surprised what combinations work. I find currently with the prices in our supermarkets, buy fresh fruit and portion it then freeze, this gives you the freedom on what fruit you have. I use melon, kiwi fruit, pinapple as a base then add low fat yoghurt. If I am going to the gym after it then I add peanut better and a carb suppliment to help the workout.

Andy

flossieflo

fresh fruit and low fat greek yogurt thats around 3 of my 5 a day

Tofuheart

Typically I have 1 cup Special K Red Berries cereal, 1 Morningstar sausage patty, 2 scrambled eggs, and 1 cup light chocolate soy milk. Sometimes I'll sub a Baked Cranberry Chocolate Chip Oatmeal for the cereal and Morningstar bacon for the sausage.

That sounds amazing! How many calories approx?

Franticantics

I have a banana and raspberry omelette with 2 eggs, or 2 bananas mashed with coconut milk and egg whites.
If I've been to a wholefoods, then I'll have coconut milk yogurt and an apple with hazelnut butter on it.
I love breakfast!
