What is your go to breakfast during the week? If it's quick and easy share the recipe.

For me it's simple! Peanut Butter Toast/Waffle. I smear 2 TBSP of Natural PB on Whole Wheat Toast or a Whole Wheat Waffle and sprinkle cinnamon and splenda on top. Simple takes 2 minutes and I can eat it on the go. I also never get tired of it.

    I precook a bunch of chicken breakfast sausages and then flash freeze them (so they don't stick together) and put them in a baggie in the freezer. I also use my steamer to make up a bunch of hard boiled eggs. In the morning, I grab out 2 sausages, heat in the microwave, peel an egg while they heat up, and then much-n-go. Excellent protein and staying power. Fast and easy.

    WHY is your name Unicorn POOP? Why would you pick that? Does it have some special meaning for you that I just don't get? Just curious.

    Haha! I love it. As for breakfast: I like berries in yogurt/cottage cheese, or granola in yogurt. I make my own granola, and it's super good for me & delicious!

    I also do yogurt too. However I end up making a big tub of Pumpkin Greek Yogurt and pairing it with Kashi Go Lean Honey Almond Flax. It's so filling and protein rich. Plus when you make a giant tub of it it lasts you all week long. Can't complain with that.

    It is either a whole wheat english muffin with peanut butter and a grapefruit

    or...

    2 eggs (fried or boiled) with some sort of fruit and maybe some toast if I am still hungry.

    oatmeal with toasted almonds, cranberries, a little milk and maple syrup. I'll throw it in a container then in my bag and eat it after it's cooled off and congealed into a solid block. it works for me.

    and unicorns poop marshmallows and stars, so sure, why not?

    Umm, I guess I just wouldn't want to be poop, whether common or uncommon crap. But, that's just me. It's certainly a unique moniker.

    People always have beef with my username. I guess I don't care enough to question theirs.

    For me it's a cup of coffee and slice of toast with laughing cow wedge...sometimes I add some strawberry jam on top.

    Plain yogurt, peanut butter and whatever mixed in. This week it's goji berries. Last week it was fresh fruit.

    Half a cup of oatmeal sometimes with almond milk, and then I throw in whatever I feel like that day. :]
    Usually it's peanut butter, berries, or cocoa powder.

    I go on kicks, but find I need a few to rotate through or else I get bored:

    1) Greek yogurt parfaits with fresh fruit, and granola
    2) A toasted bagel with peanut butter and honey or banana
    3) Overnight oatmeal (so many possibilities!)
    4) One soft-boiled egg on wheat toast (sometimes with low-fat ricotta and fresh basil)
    5) Steel-cut oatmeal with almonds, a tsp of maple syrup, fresh fruit, and milk (2% or almond depending on what we have)

    I blogged about the yogurt and overnight oatmeal here: http://csquaredculinaryadventures.wordpress.com/2012/09/18/mason-jars-and-bento-boxes/ and the egg dish here: http://csquaredculinaryadventures.wordpress.com/2012/09/29/a-morning-wake-up-call/

    Sorry. I don't really have a "beef" with your name, I just didn't "get it". Wasn't sure if there was some inside joke, story behind it, some famous foreign band's name, whatever.

    1/2 cup store brand Egg Beaters cooked with Pam, cooked like an omelet, 1 tblsp. Chia seeds added near the end. Topped with 1 tsp. hot sauce, 1 tblsp. Hunts (No High Fructose Corn Syrup) Ketchup. 1/4 cup dry steel cut oats cooked in 1 cup water. When cooked, I add 1 tsp. cinnamon and 1 tsp. coconut sugar and a splash of 1% milk. I eat this daily, year round-filling and keeps me going until mid morning fruit.

    Rocking horse poop is surely a close contender.....

    I'm into bagels with smoked salmon & soft cheese or a poached egg currently.

    Tupperware makes an omelette maker for the microwave & it's awesome. The night before work I put 2 eggs a splash of milk, a sprinkle of bacon bits (less than a teaspoon) or some diced ham, mushrooms...really anything you'd want in your omelette - anyhow I put it all in a ziplock baggie & take it to work with me. Use the omelette maker on 60% power for 1 minute 40 seconds & have a perfect omelette everytime (will it's not folded over like an omelette but all cooked together). It's not rubbery or anything. It's under 200 calories plus I have coffee with flavored creamer & sweet n low & some kind of fruit. It's usually around 300 calories when it's all done. I'm a big breakfast eater though & need something very filling. This morning before my workout at 5:00AM I had a 1/2 whole wheat english muffin toasted with 1 teaspoon of peanut butter. Works for me.

    Always wanted to be an oatmeal eater, but it's never been my thing. I did discover that Rachel Ray has oatmeal in various flavors, and I find the Berry Cherry flavor appeals to me. Haven't tried the others (there's a Strawberry Orange Banana that sounds kind of yummy)... but I've been eating a packet of that, then if I get hungry mid-morning I'll have a banana. Seems to work for me so far.

    I could eat breakfast food for every meal! 2 scrambled egg whites, burrito size flour tortilla and a little salsa....also LOVE yogurt and grapenuts (not too many tho)...and what would life be without peanut butter? Truly thankful for peanut butter every day...sometimes have this on a graham cracker for a quick snack...

    Mine is a smoothie. I have the Ninja that comes with cups and blade for them. I just toss all my fruit, veggies and yogurt in the cup blend and ready to go. Egg Beaters with turkey bacon is another quick go to. They both cook really fast. I will put them on a tortilla or a low calorie Eating Right slender.
