    Quick Brekkie ideas that are my favourites:

    - protein shake
    - yoghurt and fruit
    - fresh ham shaved, with cottage cheese dip.
    - protein pancakes (egg, protein powder and vanilla)
    - coffee :wink: all mums need that!

    Sweet Breakfast :

    1 very ripe Avocado, mashed up with one scoop of Vanilla protein powder... easy and SO FILLING for hours!! good fats and high fiber and lots of protein all in one!


    Savory Breakfast:

    Cottage cheese, mixed well into beaten eggs, a pinch each of Garlic powder, Onion powder, cracked Pepper....make an omelet with that....add some cheddar or mozzarella cheese to it at the end....and if you want, wrap it in a nicely toasted tortilla and take it to work!!! SOOO GOOD!

    I am allergic to eggs so breakfast for me is never like anyone else's either.

    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!

    I personally love eating oatmeal or omlettes with a little bit of cheese.

    Lately I have been making breakfast the night before with theyummylife.com. Here she has overnight oatmeal and oatmeal smoothie recipes that are not only good, but made in advance and quite filling. She also has her healthy version of a McMuffin, which you make the night before and freeze or refridgerate. I had them for lunch today and it was very delicious (Although I personally changed it up so it was regular english muffins instead of whole wheat, etc... Making it to what I already have).

    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!!!

    toast with avocado spread on top and then an easy over egg on top of that. Yum!

    I have been eating a Timber Ridge Farm scrambled egg pattie (thawed in microwave) with Borden FF American single on Aunt Millie's WW slimwiches(toasted) and a Oikos Strawberry Fruit on the Bottom Greek yogurt. All this is 300 calories. This keeps me full until lunch at noon. I leave my house at 6:15 a.m. so I need a quick breakfast in the morning. This all taks about 3 minutes to put together.

    Try to think outside of the box a little, don't think of breakfast as a meal when you have to only eat eggs, toast, oats or fruit and yoghurts. Each meal should cover all three macronutrients (protein, carbs, fats-good), I mix up my breakfast the same way I mix up my lunch and dinner which also means that the foods that I would eat for lunch and dinner I can also have for breakfast.
    I have been doing this for the past 12 months and I am the leanest I have been in 7 years. Make sure you incorporate some form of meat for breakfast (red meat, white meat, seafood) even wild meats.... That doesn't mean you need a 350g steak, it only needs to be at least 100g with a mixture of veggies. You want to make your breakfast bigger than your dinner with a good size lunch in the middle, eating to much at night is the downfall of most people trying to loose weight and body fat percentage.
    Hope this gives you more ideas.......

    I love cereal! Why not multi grain cheerios, skim milk and a banana? 235 calories, and if you add a toasted sandwich thin, that's 100 more calories. I'm 60 yr old , lost 14 pds in a little less than 2 months.

    I few of my fav..... easy + healthy! .....

    - Baked Beans - they are low cal & low fat

    - Toast with Avocado and Tomato (with a crack of pepper)

    - Toast with Tomato and Ricotta (with a crack of pepper...you could even add some basil leaves if you have them!!)

    - Toast with Tomato and crumbed Fete Cheese (with a crack of pepper)

    - Ricotta in a bowl mixed with honey and cinnamon, then serve with banana and raisin toast - SO yum! But not sure how healthy raisin toast is , so you could just have it with banana

    - Make yourself some Birchir muesli (the one you soak over night) - there are great recipes on the internet, and you can basically make it up

    - Toast with peanut butter and sliced banana (not everyday though, cause of the pb)


    Hope this helps and gives you some different ideas :)

    #` Fruit smoothy - 1/2c 1% Milk, 1 cup fruit, 1 scoop protein powder - you can control the calories based on the amount of powder you add and type of milk.

    I like this because it is quick and satisfying. My blood sugar falters so I have an apple about 2 hours after. (I follow the 5 meals a day plan)

    bookmarked...


    also you can do egg white omlettes in the microwave in the steam ziploc bags adding ham, veggies, cheese and whatever you want. I made one this morning that was almost the size of a 3/4 of a large plate for around 300 calories.

    Make a peanut butter and banana smoothie. It has lots of protein and healthy fat, and it'll keep you full for a while.

    Recipe:
    1 banana, sliced
    2 tbsp. of peanut butter
    1 cup of the milk of your choice
    1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
    1/2 tbsp. of honey
    3 ice cubes

    Blend all of these ingredients together in a blender or Magic Bullet.
