    I vary it up often, but my favorites tend to be:


    Special K Protein cereal w/ skim milk with fresh berries or banana
    Wheat toast/or Multi grain EM w/ extra fiber with PB or Polamer Fruit spread w/ extra fiber
    Grapefruit
    Banana
    When I make them 3 egg snackers
    if I don't eat cereal, I drink a 10oz glass of milk every morning with my breakfast b/c #1 I love milk & #2 calcium & vitamins are very important as a woman.

    Wow, that's incredibly elaborate. :O I'm speechless.

    That's what happens when I have the day off of work and a kitchen all to myself :wink:

    For a second I thought you did this every day, which made me feel incredibly inadequate, lol. The artfully placed fruit is especially amazing. ^_^

    Meanwhile, I still don't know what I want for breakfast. Oatmeal sounds totally blah and nothing else sounds good either (especially anything particularly "healthy", and I don't want anything sweet) I actually would love some ramen with sesame oil and fried eggs, but we're out of noodles. I might have to make a special trip or bake some french fries. Ha, I don't really have a set breakfast food, dinner/lunch type foods often become breakfast and vice versa.

    You're too kind :flowerforyou:
    Home made ramen is so so good. And ditto on mixing up traditional meal type foods. I usually lean towards having breakfast all day, though. Though maybe I'll try lunch for breakfast one day, hm..

    I usually just have a wheat bagel spread with 1 tbsp of peanut butter. If I am planning a lunch that is a little heavier than normal in carbs, I will have 4 scrambled eggs, 3 slices of turkey bacon, and a slice of wheat toast (all pre cooked and sitting in the fridge, so I just have to microwave it while my toast is in the toaster).

    For breakfast? I'm having stomach pain.

    Woke up hungry, but with my stomach funky. Oh noes.

    I'll try something at lunch, maybe a protein shake.

    I try to vary my breakfast every couple of weeks, but something I tried lately was three eggs scrambled/omletted with 120g of black beans cooked into it, with some spring onions at the end. Looked kind of funky (glad I did not cook the bean liquid into it as I saw suggested) but tasted pretty good, going to do it again with black eye peas or flagelot beans cause that's what I have in the press.

    Hmm, I am seeing a lot of great ideas. For me, it was Special K Red Berries Cereal and a breakfast sandwich (homemade) that consisted of 2 slices of wheat bread, 2 hard boiled egg whites, and 2 turkey sausage links.

    Today, it was a bacon and lettuce sandwich.

    Yours breakfast was very cheerful looking, and that kind of cheer only happens on the weekends around here.

    That sounds so good! I'm adding coconut yogurt to my shopping list this week!

    I had a vanilla protein shake (vegan) with some strawberries blended in, pumpkin seeds on the side - quite boring in comparison to all the breakfasts on here.

    WOW! That's an awesome looking plate! Even if I stayed home everyday, I doubt I would have the energy to make such beautiful presentations. My breakfasts have to be portable and quick so I alternate between home made oatmeal (old fashioned oats, not the instant kind with hardly any fiber and tons of sugar! I make a big batch of mine on the weekends with Stivia, vanilla and cinnamon) with a cup of mixed berries (which was today). And my alternate breakfast is a home made breakfast wrap, either in a sprouted grain tortilla feat. turkey sausages and veggies or in a low carb whole wheat tortilla with turkey sausage, veggies and cheese. Again, I make 5 of these on the weekend all wrapped up to go so I can grab and go on my way to work.

    Nothing. I'm not hungry and it just reduces the size of my dinner.

    My favorite meal of the day by far. I'm a little set in my routine so always looking for new ideas.

    Here's my breakfast today..

    Screenshot2013-05-01at85451AM_zps75869043.png

    Don't make fun, I think food tastes better when it's pretty..Boyfriend said he compromised his masculinity by eating it..:laugh:

    Forgot to add: It's 2 eggs with feta cheese, honey baked ham, 3/4 cup goat milk yogurt with almonds and chia, fruit salad

    So what'd you have today/are planning to have?

    Wow, beautiful display! It would be perfect on instagram haha.

    I had three hardboiled eggs, some cherry tomatoes, and salsa! And of course, coffee :)
