    You guys are making me hungry lol

    I am not a big breakfast eater and struggled with finding stuff to eat and stuff I actually want to cook. So I started nutrient extracting....I bought a nutribullet and mix 2 cups of green leafy veggies, up to 2 cups of any fruit, top it off with a booster (chia seeds, flax seeds, raw nuts) and blend!!!!! It's pretty fulfilling and under 300 calories....plus I at least get my servings of fruit out the way for the day :)

    ALL NATURAL PANCAKE RECIPE... NO PROCESSED ANYTHING!!

    - 1 ripe banana
    - 2 whole eggs

    That’s it. Just mix together in a bowl and make sure the banana is all mashed. Then spray your pan with some "spray & cook" or coconut oil. On a low to medium heat, scoop some of the batter into the pan & give it about 20-30 sec, flip, and done! Serve and eat!

    *Some advice would be to make them small so its easier to flip

    Under 250 calories, nearly 14g of protein! No processed anything! These pancakes are gluten free, low calorie.

    I normally rotate through 3 breakfast choices.

    1. English Muffin, Peanut butter and apple slices
    2. Two whole wheat pancakes with jelly and 3 slices of turkey bacon or 2 links of turkey sausage
    3. A breakfast burrito with a small tortilla, 1 egg, 2 diced pieces of bacon, diced peppers, onions and mushrooms.

    All of them are between 300-400 calories and can easily be made at work. I make the pancakes on the weekend and freeze them in packs of two and then just pop them in the toaster.

    I *love* making smoothies like this for breakfast (minus the mango then add a green apple and greek yogurt) but always do it in the morning which complicates my morning routine. Good to know it can be made the night before :)
    I usually need something easy and fast so I make a shake at night and take it to work for breakfast the next morning. Like tomorrow, I am having a shake that consists of unsweetened vanilla almond milk, spinach, frozen mango chunks, and a banana. I drink it at my desk in the morning at work.

    A lot of great suggestions!

    If you need something ready to go in the morning, you can make a big batch of oatmeal (with whatever toppings, raisins, nuts, etc you like) ahead of time, then portion it out to heat up the morning.

    You can also make the "egg cups"... mix your eggs, pour in muffin pans, add toppings (don't overfill!), then bake ahead for mini omelet servings. Put 2-3 in baggies for individual portions.

    My new must have breakfast, 2 minute french toast in a mug. 1-2 slices of bread (I'm using Ezekial 4:9 cinn raisin), an egg, oz or so of milk, sprinkle of cinnamon. Cut bread add to rest of ingredients in the mug, nuke min a two. Add drop of vanilla extract etc before nuking if you wish. I've been using Walden farms pancake syrup. Fast & hardly much of a clean up.

    This is getting quite the response!

    I tied to get chicken chorizo at the whole foods butcher but they didn't have it. I did get hot italian chicken sausage for a meal to be determined, though!

    Thanks folks! SO many great breakfast ideas for the next food shopping trip.

    Avoid cereal, grains, wheat, toast or bread (unless fermented...such as Sourdough or Gluten Free) or carbs in general
    Greek Yoghurt does amazing things with some berries. (try not to eat too much fruit....fruit can = lots of carbs)
    Eggs and bacon! Lots of yummy bacon! (Try cooking your bacon in bacon fat!!!!)
    Lots of butter.
    Avoid anything orange or yellow.
    Spinach! Spinach + egg??? yum!

    Good luck!

    Here is what to stay away from. I always knew Egg Mcmuffins were bad, but this is horrific. I can't believe people eat this regularly. http://trainelite.com/how-bad-is-an-egg-mcmuffin-for-you/
