    I saute (in olive oil) my fave veggies (mushrooms, asparagus, onions) lightly with garlic salt and pepper. I scrambled 8 or so eggs (no milk) I scramble the veggies and eggs in a bowl then fill muffin tins with the mixture bake for a few on 350.. I let them cool then put them in a freezer bag to grab and go every morning...

    Cheap, fast, yummy and low cal.
    There is no way that is under 300 calories with 8 eggs and olive oil

    Hi...fruit smoothies with blueberries and a banana with half the fat yoghurt. Try not to eat bread in the morning simply fruit.

    My breakfast yesterday was 1 packet store brand bananas and cream oatmeal and one apple. I was full unil lunch. But sometimes I have two apples. I challenge anyone to be hungry after eating two medium apples.

    If you don't mind pre-packaged breakfasts, Jimmy Dean makes decent breakfast sandwiches in their "DeLightful" line between 210-280 calories.

    Also, Kellogs Special K just came out with Flatbread breakfast sandwiches between 200-250 calories.

    I've tried both brands and one sandwich is substantial enough (with my morning coffee) to keep me full for 3-4 hours. You can find these in the feezer section of Walmart or your grocery store.

    I was a Jimmy Dean Delightful fan until the Special K Flatbread sandwiches came out. I know that it's processed food but I don't have much time in the morning and can't imagine getting up any earlier than I already do. I have the Ham, Egg and Pepperjack cheese sandwich at least 4 days a week.

    1 egg - 70 cal
    1 slice american cheese - 60 cal
    Whole Wheat Eng. Muffin - 120 cal
    Hot Sauce - 5 cal
    Total - 255
    This one keeps me full for about 3-4 hours (I eat 5x a day)
    ---or---
    2 Eggs - 140 cal
    2oz lean ham - 60 cal
    Total 200 calories
    This is what I've been eating the last two weeks and with my 3 cups of coffe, it keeps me plenty full.

    1 whole egg, large - 70 calories
    1 slice of bacon - 45 calories
    1 Oroweat Pocket Thins - 100 calories

    Total: 215 calories

    Add a small to medium banana to the mix, and you'll be at 300 calories. And be full. This is assuming you are drinking water. That's what I had for Breakfast this morning and it was wonderful..

    It clearly makes more than one serving. She makes a batch and takes one each moning.

    My standard is 1 individual Yogurt from yoplait...not the light stuff either. Most of them are 170 Calories and I have that first thing in the morning

    Then about an hour and a half later, i'll have one package of Quaker instant oatmeal (apples & Cinnamon) for another 130 Calories.

    Easy 300 calories, both are sweet but not "bad" for you.

    Why such a small breakfast? I like to have a nice large breakfast that will get my day started right and hold me over till lunch time.

    I usually have a yoplait light yogurt (90cal.) and protein breakfast bar (150cal.) in the mornings (240cal. total). The yogurt gives you a sweet fix and its good for your digestive tract. The protein bar gives you the energy to get through the morning. But if you like variety, there have been a lot of great suggestions on this thread. I am going to use some for next week.

    I usually have steel cut oats cooked in Juice with fruit and nuts added. However, sometimes I have a hard boiled egg with couple slices of turkey and hunk of cheese.

    5 large strawberries - 24 cals
    1/2 cup whole grain, old fasioned oats
    splenda (or not) 150 cals
    1 T nuts 40 cals

    214 total

    If you don't like it sweet, skip the berries and add just nuts and cinnamon. You can also add chia, flax seed and/or wheat germ to make it even more filling and to add more cals. Or use milk instead of water to cook the oatmeal. I don't use it because it boils over and makes a stinkin' mess.

    3 egg omelet with veggies 210 cals. Add meat or cheese to get to your 300 cal mark.

    I usually do a cinnamon raisen bagel thin from thomas' and its only 110 calories and light whipped cream cheese (70 calories) and then maybe a small banana. All together it shouldn't be more than 300! :)

    My new favorite:

    Toast one thin bagel, split. Top with grated light cheese, a handful of spinach, a tomato slice and two poached eggs. Salt and pepper it. Keeps me full for hours. It's under 300 calories.
