Just wondering some food ideas for breakfast..I feel like I'm eating the same thing every morning. Sometimes I'll have an egg sandwhich, oatmeal or cereal..is there any others that I could do for a variety? Please help!

    I like Thomas Hearty Grains Bagels with some 1/3 less fat strawberry cream cheese or I have a wake- up shake.

    Wake-Up Shake:
    1/4 cup orange juice
    1 banana
    1/2 cup frozen berries
    1 cup low fat vanilla yogurt

    Makes 2 servings. Listed in food database as Betty Crocker - Wake-Up Shake if you want to see the nutritional info.

    Adding variety to breakfast as helped me. I used to only eat egg beaters w/tomato, Tyson's seasoned steak and cheese. I got sick of that really fast and the thought of eating it now makes me sick. Variety is truly the spice of life!

    Try a breakfast smoothie, or maybe instead of a egg sandwich try doing a an omelette with veges.

    What about a breakfast burrito? I use smart & delicious tortilla from la tortilla company. They have 50 calories each and they're good sized. I stuff them with 1 egg, 2 strips of turkey bacon, some cheese and salsa and they are quite yummy.

    Sometimes for variety I'll have peanut butter and jelly on a toasted deli flat. It's about the same cals as the egg sandwich and adds a little sweetness to my morning.

    I take a whole wheat english muffin, low fat cheese and morningstar sausage patty. takes about 2 minutes in the microwave and I'm out the door! My other staple is oatmeal with a scoop of vanilla protein powder.

    I love omelettes. Maybe with a slice of toast on the side.

    Also love yogurt parfaits with fresh sliced fruit and crunchy cereal for texture.

    I do french toast with egg whites and low cal whole wheat bread (light style wheat pepperedge farms) and fry with cooking spray :) I drizzle honey

    I pretty much have two things I eat for breakfast - both are yummy!!!

    If I am trying to keep carbs to a lower level, I eat a breakfast wrap that consists of
    1 flat out light original wrap - 90 cals (and lots of fiber)
    2 egg whites cooked - 36 cals
    1 slice of fat free cheese - 25 cals
    Jennie O turkey sausage - 65 cals
    All said and done = 216 calories and very filling

    If I am doing a heavy workout and need extra carbs I eat
    1/2 cup steel cut oatmeal - 150 cals
    1 tablespoon natural pb - 100 cals
    All said and done = 250 calories
