    I have a smoothie, using a high quality protein powder, almond/coconut milk blend, berries and ice whipped up in the blender. It's about 220 calories. Yummy

    2 minute breakfast:
    one teaspoon of Instant Miso, from the containers. Add 1 cup of water. Mix. Heat one minute in the microwave. Add 1 oe 2 eggs, or egg whites, stir in for thinker creamy texture or lightly mix for bigger "chunks." Microwave another minute. All done. Drink from bowl as you get ready. Delicious

    Feel free to add spices and sauces. I love parsely, soy sauce or fish sauce, but I know that might not be some people's cup of tea that early in the morning. Miso 35 calories plus the calories of your eggs.

    Another 2 minute meal.
    Smoothies.
    The Magic Bullet is your friend. Get one. I combine any number of veggies, and fruits to eat for my day, but I'm careful to only had half a cup of milk or juice to keep calories down. Fruits, frozen, fresh or canned. Veggies, I steam them at night to eat throught out my day. Carrots are excellent. Canned pumpkin is great. Blend. Comes in a convient serving size cup that you can grab and drink on the way to work.

    This morning, my daughter and I made egg and banana pancakes for the first time.

    2 eggs and 1 banana, blended together. Total- 245 calories. SOOO good and very quick!

    You can add a little vanilla, salt, cinnamon, a few chocolate chips, whatever! We tried vanilla in one batch. I think it's not necessary at all.


    It was too much cholesterol for me to do often, so I'll try it with egg whites next time.. maybe 1 egg and 2 egg whites. Also planning to try canned pumpkin instead of bananas.

    Avocados are amazingly satisfying for breakfast! Here is what I have:

    1 whole avocado (use a half to cut the calories) cut in half, scoop into dish, dash of salt mash with a potato masher until nice and smooth
    1 slice of 12 grain bread (I like mine toasted dark) - spread on mashed avocado - SO good!!!

    I also eat a banana and a cup of tea with honey - about 590 calories (440 if you only use half of an avocado) but I like eating a substantial breakfast. I eat about 5:30 AM and it keeps me rocking easily until 10AM when I eat my mid morning meal.

    Delicious!!!

    Great ideas on here!

    I usually have a piece of toast with peanut butter and raspberries and blackberries on the side.

    If I'm not feeling lazy, I'll scramble a couple eggs with Mrs. Dash salt-free chipotle seasoning and then put that onto a piece of toast with a Laughing Cow queso fresco wedge spreaded onto it and top it all with salsa.

    Cilantro Pear Turkey Breakfast Sausages

    1 lb ground turkey breast
    3/4 cup unpeeled pear
    3/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
    1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
    1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
    1 tsp dried rubbed sage
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/2 tsp ground cumin
    1/2 tsp ground allspice
    1/2 teaspoon crushed red peper

    Add all ingredients into a bowl and mix together. Form into patties (makes 8) and cook for 4 minutes on each side until done! 157 calories for 1 serving, which is two patties. I will make a batch of these and freeze what I don't use for quick breakfasts throughout the week. :) Will usually serve with eggs (I know, I know, you're sick of them :P) and fruit but will go well with whatever option you choose. Enjoy. :D

    I make a really good stuffed french toast!

    2 slice of bread (I usually use whole grain, gluten free)

    1 tablespoon of your choice of filling. (I use organic hazelnut butter)

    Egg whites

    Cinnamon.

    Take eggs whites and pour some onto a plate. Add some cinnamon and mix it.
    Dab both sites of the bread and put one slice into a pan.
    Let that cook for a little, then add your tablespoon of choice.
    Take slice two, and do the same thing. Put it on top of the the filling when done.
    When your first side is a golden brown flip it over, and cook the other side.

    I usually throw some strawberries on top afterwards.

    So delish!

    Banana pancakes sound good! Do you fry in butter or something else? Would thy be ok to eat next day, reheated or cold? Thanks

    My go-to standbys for breakfast:
    - cottage cheese w/Stevia, blanched slivered almonds
    - greek yogurt with chia seeds and stevia, drop of vanilla
    - "Big Oatmeal Cookie" - an old SBDD favorite, you can Google for the recipe.

    HTH!
