    2 tablespoons PB2 spead on a low carb tortilla add a banana and roll it up. It is also portable if you make the PB2 thicker. Equals 225 calories.

    I usually have to eat something at my desk. I love the Special K Crisps in either Strawberry or Blueberry. It is two tasty bars and they only count for 100 calories total. I used to enjoy these with a super cold Mt Dew. BAD. I am trading it in for super cold high quality H2O. GOOD. :smile:

    make a batch and freeze them for an easy breakfast...they just have to be thawed & heated in the morning, takes 30 seconds. Add your own toppings, you dont have to use what the recipe says. I use broccoli, spinach, 2% cheddar, ham

    Always four pieces of bacon (or more if it's the end of the package); tilapia loin; 2 oz sliced roast beef (Central Market); 3/4 cup cole slaw; few sprinkles of bleu cheese; 1/2 bar of 99% dark chocolate (World Market); 3 tsp coconut cream for coffee with stevia powder.

    Protein = 59
    Fat = 54
    Carbs = 18
    Calor = 995

    This breakfast keeps me full, usually, until an early dinner. Sometimes I just have 'snack lunch' of 14 macadamia nuts and 1/2 chocolate bar for lunch.... or sometimes it's some salmon, tuna, or other left-over grass-fed gound beef. If the snack lunch is eaten, I am usually ready for an early dinner; dinner is never later than 7pm.

    Green smoothie: 1/2 banana, 1/2 orange, 1/2 cup pineapple chunks, 1 1/2 handfuls spinach, 1/4 bunch fresh parsley, 1/8 cup fresh basil. Blend well. Five minutes to make and totally healthy! You can also add protein powder or raw (yes, raw) eggs to it for protein!

    Whole grain eggo waffle with peanut butter
    Granny smith apple and peanut butter
    Almonds and fruit (blueberries, strawberries, etc.)

    I'm told a banana can be a meal unto itself - although I can't stand them. :)

    Two eggs, either poached, scrambled or soft boiled, with 1 slice wholemeal bread, toasted.
    Or fruit with natural yogurt.
    Or two grilled veggie sausage, grilled tomato, hash brown and a fried egg. ( usually Sunday's breakfast) :-)

    Here's a few ideas that are some of my favorites:
    Grilled ham egg and cheese with a tomato slice and spinach
    old fashioned oats with bananas or blueberries
    tuna/spinach omelette
    SMOOTHIES! (quick, healthy, and my personal favorite breakfast)
    sliced ham/egg on an english muffin

    hope this helps a bit :)

    love this idea, never made eggs in the microwave before. how long do you cook it for?

    When I do a single egg, I zap it 30 seconds. My microwave is 1,100 watts, so if yours is weaker you'll need to adjust. I have noticed that if I stir it up only enough to blend the yolk and white then I get a more dense scramble and if I whip them good then it expands more and is fluffier. I like both and switch back and forth.

    I have noticed my wave is 'hotter' than someone else's of the same wattage, so practice. It's a bit moist when done, but by the time i plop it out on a plate and chop it up and sit down, the egg is drier like i prefer.

    I mix 0% greek yogurt with a tablespoon of peanut butter and 1/2 to 1 packet of stevia in the raw. It's delicious, filling, and quick. You can even make it ahead of time, and just grab it out of the fridge.

    I'm also a big fan of smoothies, and eggs in the AM.

    Never once did adding PB to yogurt cross my mind, but it sounds great. I'm trying that asap. Thx! :wink:

    I usually have two cups of tea first, then an hour or so later I have breakfast. Today I made a smoothie of kiwi, raspberries, blueberries, banana, whey powder and water. I then had a slice of sourdough bread with 1 tbsp of butter.

    I usually just eat 2 egg whites with a little bit of cheese. Sometimes I will also have an apple with peanut butter. It's better to start your day out with protein because it sustains you for longer. You are less likely to feel hungry a couple hours later. I made the switch from cereal and I have noticed that I have less cravings throughout the day.

    Nothing. Eating breakfast makes me hungry.

    Proper toast - 100% rye sourdough, white sourdough or an artisan wholegrain topped with a poached egg, or tahini, or smoked salmon. Or oatmeal with skimmed milk & muscovado sudar; or a smoothie made with frozen berries, cherry juice and fat-free yoghurt.
    If eating bread - I only eat good quality, organic breads for a lower GI and better nutrition.

    2 eggs scrambled with some grape tomatoes and spinach.

    When I know I'm going to be really busy, I make egg muffins on Sunday night and eat 2 of those for breakfast throughout the week (put whatever fillings you want in the bottom of the tin, then pour in eggs until it's 3/4 full or so, then bake). Keep them in plastic baggies or other containers and then reheat for 30 seconds or so when you're ready to eat them.

    For those who say they don't eat breakfast at all, that is one of the worst things you can do. Breakfast gets your metabolism going for the day. I personally have a greek yogurt (chobani) and then bring a banana or some other fruit to work to have as a morning snack. Also if you workout in the mornings (like I do) I have a protein shake right after my workout.
