    Scrambled eggs (two made this very morning by our mobile scrap-fed egg farm) cooked up with a pile of bacon, onions and chopped up sausages left over from last night's boozy bbq.

    And tomato sauce.

    And some toasted buns to mop it all up with.

    And coffee.

    I considered Special K but suspect that it just would not hit the spot this morning. ;)

    This week I fixed a batch of black bean turkey mix and have been making breakfast burritos. The turkey mix is taco seasoning (low sodium), 1/2 c wheat germ, 1/2 c sugar free applesauce, 1 egg and 1 egg white. After browning the turkey meat, I add a bit of chopped veggies (onion, green pepper, whatever) and brown that, then add a can of drained and rinsed black beans. One pkg of ground turkey makes about 8-10 burritos, depending on the size of your tortilla. Use the high fiber low carb tortillas, top with a bit of low fat cheese and salsa and it's a quick easy breakfast. Keeps in the fridge for well over a week.

    I also like to take the turkey mix and just make turkey patties. Brown a bunch of them up and use them for turkey/egg breakfast sammies or just grab a couple, heat them, and eat them plain.

    The turkey/black bean mix is also great on a salad. I got the idea from Biggest Loser one season.

    Egg whites, cheese, meat, bread: either an omlette with a piece of whole grain toast, or a whole wheat English muffin with egg/cheese/meat. Cheese is usually Finlandia light swiss, the meat is either 1 tsp bacon crumbles (costco) or two slices uncured Canadian bacon (also Costco). Nets out at 300 calories (more or less) either way.

    During the work week it's honey wheat toast and garden veggie cream cheese and tea about 210 calories without creamer, multigrain cheerios and skim milk, or nutrigrain waffles with light syrup. On the weekend I tend to make omelets with tomatoes, cheese, and onions, light french toast or any of the work week staples. :)

    Usually I have homemade plain yogurt, with a scoop of protein powder, two tablespoons of "Holy Crap - Dragons' Blend" cereal (chia, hemp hearts . . . ), and 140 grams of fruit.

    I decided to try oatmeal for breakfast today, and that worked out quite well. 1/3 cup made with water, with 22 grams of brown sugar.

    Coffee and milk is the first thing every morning.

    Egg sandwiches on toast and leftovers have been my thing the last couple weeks.

    And my normal go to is Wheat Chex with 2% milk and banana.

    There's been some pancakes, some waffles and some french toast.

    I love oatmeal but haven't had it in a couple of months.

    There's pretty much nothing in my diet I won't eat for breakfast.

    Recently we found a recipe that we quite enjoy and is versatile.

    The base consists of half cup of oats, about a cup of greek yogurt (regular will work as well) and a pinch of chia seeds (optional really...) And add anything else you'd like in there as well. Mix well, stick in the refrigerator for 8 hours before consuming. Above measurements makes one serving so you can make more if you like. Mix is good for 3 days after you made it.

    Depending on the day I'll add toast with a bowl of oats or just two toasts with fruit a little while pre-workout and have a larger meal after
