If you have a Trader Joes or Whole Foods by you, I recommend trying their frozen steel cut oats at TJ's or the frozen Ancient Grains & Oats at Whole Foods. There are two servings that you can microwave for a couple of minutes and it gives you the idea of what they should taste like.
I now make a pot of steel cut oats on the weekends and soaking the oats overnight can help. I then measure out my servings for the week in Tupperware. During winter months I will make a months worth and freeze some portions in ziplock bags.
I also like to poach or hard boil a weeks worth of eggs and store them in tupperware or ziploc bags. I can add thick Trader Joes Celebrity Healthy Black Forest Ham or Canadian bacon with English muffins and add sliced tomato and onion for breakfast sandwiches.
Other days, if I have the time to cook breakfast I like to load up on breakfast burritos.0 -
Thanks for the quick responses. I have some steel cut oats but have made them terribly twice so far and they have tasted like glue. Need to figure them out.
Google because I do not remember the website: Crockpot Steel Oatmeal. There is a site with the word YUMMY in it. I have not tried the receipes on there but I am sure can find some that are awesome. Also the Biggest Loser 6 weeks to a healthier you has one with peaches and steel oatmeal.0 -

Some mornings I do an omelet in a Ziplock bag. Put a egg in the bag....squish it around....add whatever you want to it....I add cheese, canadian bacon, (sometimes just bacon bits)...etc.... drop it into a pan of boiling water.....go finish getting ready for work. It slides right out of the bag.... I wrap it up in a papertowel and take it to work......very good and very low carb!!
Never would have thought of this method, thanks! :happy:0 -
This is interesting to me as I am currently eating 438 Caleries for breakfast which to me seems high??
I have a small portion of Strawberry Easiyo yogurt and a handful of berry granola, to me I thought this seemed like a healthy breakfast until I entered it in MFP!!!
I have to be honest I haven't counted caleries or fats before, the last diet I did was slimming world which was points based... I would like to add that I am not dieting now, just trying to eat more heathily!! Hence my shock at the caleries of my "healthy" breakfast!!!0 -
I enjoy Protein Pancakes
1/3 of each Oats, Cottage Cheese, eggs (or egg whites). Blend it all in a blender until smooth. I like to add things like blueberries or cooked apple slices and cinnamon, sometimes if I want more of a treat one I blend a banana and add chocolate chips. I usually cook a bunch and freeze some then pop them in the toaster.0 -

I usually have 2 of the Eggo Whole Wheat Waffles with a tbsp of Jif Peanut Butter with Honey and a tbsp of jelly, a cup of almond milk, and a black coffee during the week. On the weekends I like to fix Loco Moco which is rice with a protein of some sort a fried egg topped with brown gravy.0

I am hypoglycemic so my Dr. has me eating 5 to 6 small meals a day. Here lately my first breakfast is at 6:30 am, 1 egg white, ¼ cup chopped mushrooms, ¼ cup fresh baby spinach, ¼ cup low fat cheese. I put the veggies in a small skillet with a spray of olive oil, cook until spinach is wilted, then add egg white. Cook until it is solid enough to flip, flip it and add the cheese on top. (last night I didn’t wait long enough so I just scrambled it up like scrambled eggs—this was GOOOD) I cook this the night before, when it cools wrap in paper towel then put in a sandwich bag in the fridge. Take it out when running out the door for work. Put it in the microwave for a minute then add 2 tbsp salsa. THEN at 9:30 am I eat some fresh fruit salad (usually strawberry, pineapple, watermelon, honey dew) a whole apple cut up and ½ cup cottage cheese. Sometimes I do a tbsp of honey on top. YUM YUM.0

I love smoothies. I always add in some powder and lots of greens.
Also I have made breakfast sandwhiches on a sunday- baked eggs in mufffin tins. Then wrap them in tin foil and pop half in the fridge and the other half in the freezer. When you wake up turnon the oven or toaster oven it will be ready in no time.0
