What is YOUR breakfast go to??

I have a couple that I rotate thru during the week.

1. EAS Lean Protein Powder (Fudge) blended with fat free milk, blueberries and strawberries
2. 1 packet of Quackers Maple and Brown Sugar for Weight Loss Oatmeal, a cup of fat free milk and half a small banana
3. 1-2 large scrambled eggs on a whole wheat tortilla with a small amount of Cabot 50% reduced fat cheddar cheese and a tablespoon of salsa
4. Bowl of Kellogs Red Berries with fat free milk and a small banana

Typically I have a slim jim. Today I had a yogurt and toast. **shrugs**

I eat a banana almost every morning. If I have time I will scramble some eggs and put some salsa on them, if not I do a protein shake. My fave is chocolate with a scoop of instant coffee!

I like hard boiled eggs for breakfast. I buy them prepeeled, and I can just grab and go.

I have the same breakfast every day (not sure if that's a bad thing but I love knowing what I'm having).

I have 100% oats, with berries (like blueberries/raspberries) and seeds (like sunflower/pumpkin/linseed). I also might occasionally add around 30g of peanut butter, which is gorgeous but really high in calories so I don't have that all the time.

I just posted on my page about my new fav Greek yogurt breakfast. Since most fruits I like are out of season, I've been mixing 1 tbsp dried cranberries, 1 tbsp walnuts, chia seeds, cinnamon, allspice, Splenda, and 1/2 c Kashi Go Lean cereal into 1/2 c plain yogurt. It's really good.

My favorite hot and easy breakfast is egg muffins. Just beat a bunch of eggs (8-12) with diced meat (ham, bacon, sausage, etc), vegetables (spinach, broccoli, peppers, etc) and cheese (parmesan, mozzarella, etc) and bake in muffin tins. I spray the tins with oil first and bake at 350 for about 30 mins. I like mine a light golden brown on top. Once they cool, I throw them in the freezer. I usually make a batch on Sunday nights for the week. Then the night before work, I put 2 in a microwave dish in the refrigerator. When I get to work, I microwave them for about 30-45 secs. Instant scrambled eggs that are high protein and low carb.

I make a protein smoothie the night before a lot that includes:

1/2 cup of unsweetened almond milk
1/2 cup filtered water
2 scoops of protein powder (currently hemp powder which has no sweetener & 5 grams of fiber)
2 cups of greens or spinach
1 1/2 cups of berries (blueberry, strawberry or blackberries) or I may add peaches or mango for a twist
2 tsp of raw natural almond butter

My breakfast is one of three things depending on two factors:

1. Was today a lifting day or a cardio day?

2. Do I have time to prepare a proper meal or do I have to grab something and go?

If it was a lifting day AND I'm in a hurry, my breakfast consists of a peanut butter banana protein smoothie. 2 tbsp peanut butter, a serving of vanilla protein shake mix, 1 whole banana, 1 cup almond/coconut milk, and 5 ice cubes in a blender.

If it was a cardio day AND I'm in a hurry, my breakfast consists of a bowl of cereal (usually either Post Great Grains, Kashi GoLean Crunch, or Quaker Oats Squares) with nonfat milk and a banana.

On weekends I usually sleep in enough to where I consolidate my breakfast and mid-morning snack/meal into a single meal, so higher calories are in order. I make a breakfast sandwich using some form of reduced fat cheese (cheddar or american), egg and egg white scramble, bacon, on a whole grain bagel. If I happen to lift that day I make sure to add an extra strip of bacon, a second slice of cheese, and another egg white (rather than just 1 egg and 1 egg white) to help meet my increased calorie goals for the day as I burn less calories on cardio or rest days.

every single morning (during the week)...

multigrain english muffin
egg beaters
a meat (either bacon or sausage)
a cheese (this week it was salmon cream cheese...maybe sounds odd, but SO good)

pair that with a cup of coffee, and im good til lunch

Usually I have a smoothie. This morning's was strawberry, blueberry, banana, flaxmeal, unsweetened coconut, cocoa powder, raw walnuts, pulpy orange juice, and almond milk.

When I have to get out the door extra early I make overnight oats with banana and blueberries with a little pom juice and unsalted sunflower seeds and raw walnuts.

On weekends I make a spinach tofu scramble...yum

green smoothie (kale, 1/2 apple, carrot, lemon, ginger, green tea)

or

egg whites and veggies

I have a banana w/ 2 tbs of natural PB & 1.5 cups of skim milk w/ whey & creatine mixed in. It always holds me till lunch & is a quick 600 cals on the go.

If in a rush and can spend 0 time in the kitchen, then i grab a banana and have a big cup of Soy Milk omega 6. If time is ok, well that is a different story :ohwell: Never ever was a person who ate breakfast but understand that not eating breakfast is NOT an option, so i eat breakfast!!!!:laugh:

3/4 cup of egg whites
one piece of P28 high protein toast
1/4 avocado and salsa on the egg whites
