    :happy: I just discovered the oatmeal in a jar craze right now..skiinytaste.com has a recipe for one that is 245 calories and is wonderful and can be altered. It's super healthy and easy to throw a few together at one time if you want. can be warmed up or eaten cold in a rush and "sticks to your ribs" so you're not starving right away. do some web searches and see options for it..there also is a salad in a jar on some sites if you are having trouble with lunches..

    I hear ya. I have to be to work pretty early, and my office has no cooking facilities. I prepare a bunch of easy-to-pack foods on the weekend. Try baking breakfast bars on Sunday night. That way, you can just grab one from the pan in the morning, and eat it at work with some yogurt. I do this all the time, and the pan will usually last me the entire week. This weekend I made vegan chocolate oatmeal breakfast bars, and they're delicious (and super healthy - vegan and GF, with lots of protein). You can find great recipes online for oatmeal, chocolate, etc. If you need more protein, hard boil some eggs on the weekend and keep them in the fridge - also really easy to grab and bring to work. I also usually make some 'healthy' muffins (oatmeal, gluten free, vegan, with lots of protein), and a fruit salad with mint and agave that I divide up into 5 tupperware containers.

    If you prepare everything on the weekend, you'll have no trouble mixing up your breakfast options! Every morning all I have to do is grab a breakfast bar/brownie/muffin (depending on how I'm feeling), and/or a tupperware container of fruit salad, a yogurt, and a hard boiled egg, and throw them all in a lunch box. Easy!

    If you need any recipes/ideas/support, feel free to friend and/or message me!

    I do oatmeal (quick oats) and fruit every morning! It takes a little time, but if you boil water in the microwave it takes just 3 minutes and you've got a heart healthy delicious breakfast!

    1/3 cup oat bran
    1 tbsp honey
    3 tbsp chobani greek yogurt vanilla

    edit: 210 cals, 3 g fat


    Mix 1/3 cup oat bran with 1 cup water. Microwave in a big deep cup or bowl for 2 mins 30 seconds. Watch for it to go over (it shouldn't). Mix with 3 tbsp greek yogurt and 1 tbsp honey. It is the best breakfast in the world! Rich, creamy, and filling.

    THANK YOU! I normally have time to eat breakfast, but one or two times a week I start so early, my body just refuses to eat. I have often thrown out half the breakfast because I can't finish in time - mainly from pure stress. Now I can just grab the box from the fridge, run off and eat when I arrive. Less stress all around, and I am in place half an hour earlier!

    Hi, You said you have a microwave...Perhaps a Eggie Cup. Put whipped egg in a coffee mug with vegs chopped small ( you could bring from home in a baggie) add cheese to mug even precooked bacon (although bacon adds lots of calories). I love Eggie Cups. You can add different vegies for varity.. I love a tomato, cheese and egg in a mug.....when you cook start for 30 sec...check if not done give it a 10 sec cook. Check as you go as all microwaves are different. Enjoy!

    Google martha's healthy morning muffins. I usually make a batch and freeze them. Take 2 to work and pop them in the microwave for 30 seconds and you have yummy warm muffins :-)

    what about breakfast muffins?

    Line a muffin tin with semi cooked bacon, put a layer of spinach, whisk up an egg with a little butter, add cheese & some onion, pour in the bacon cup, then sprinkle with a bit more cheese & bake until the egg is set, they store well overnight & can be microwaved at work next day with a slice of bread of eaten on their own. This can also be done with ham.
