I am not normally hungry in the morning, but I do feel the need to eat a meal to get some fuel into my body. So I am looking for some ideas. What is your favorite healthy breakfast?

    Hi,

    for a long time i didn`t eat breakfast in the morning, but in a similar way as you the body needs it to execute the day.

    My favorite breakfast ist the following:

    mild yoghurt
    2 Tablespoons oat bran
    1 Tablespoon flaxseed
    1 Peach or 1 Apple or 20 Grapes, ... (or a combination of fruits, like 1/2 Apple and 10 grapes)

    I really love it. It gives me the power for the day and it fills my stomach, I´m not hungy till lunch.

    Hugs from Germany,
    Terragina

    2-3 egg scramble with fresh spinach, mushrooms, red peppers and zucchini sauteed in it. Piece of whole grain toast. Perfect amount of protein and good carbs. I cut it all on Sundays so it's in containers to use so it doesn't take me long to cook up.
    Other days it's a protein shake with 1% milk and frozen blueberries blended in. Both work to keep me full.
  • What are sultanas?

    I guess I could google that one.... lol

    I always have a banana or some whole grain crackers and NUTrition energy mix peanut butter (cinnamon and raisin) before my morning workout, then I eat 1 whole egg + 1 egg white before work.

    If I could have anything it would be a toss up between poptarts or cinnamon toast (tons of butter, tons of cinnamon sugar)

    But, I try not to eat those things very often.... so Iately I'm addicted to homemade granola.... so good !

    Haha, I just can't be bothered with sprinkling loads of blueberries or blackerries on my breakfast, but fair play to those who do. I just want some good, wholesome porridge...

    I don't have much time in the morning during the week, so I usually throw together a smoothie. It keeps me full till around 9 (I drink it at 6am), then I'll have a snack to hold me over till lunch.

    On the weekends, it usually involves eggs, a couple pieces of bacon, 2% cheese, a flatout or a slice of sprouts farmer's market multi grain bread

    On the weekends when I have more time at home in the morning I like 2 pieces of sprouted grain toast (has 4g protein each) w/ whipped earth balance buttery spread.

    On workdays, I usually eat once I get to work and I'll have some type of (lightish) frozen breakfast sandwich or oatmeal and fruit.

    I have two eggs over easy and two pork sausage links. So far this is the only breakfast that keeps me satisfied until lunch, for about 320 calories. I'm not paying much attention to other nutritional content, just focusing on calories at this point.

    I'm not really a breakfast person. I like to be awake for a few hours before I eat, if I have the chance, which just depends on my hours for the day because I don't eat at work.

    I go through stages. I can't do cold cereal because I just don't find it fills me up for more than an hour. In the winter I do oatmeal with 2 pieces of turkey bacon.

    If I have time, I make my own breakfast sandwich - 45cal/slice sara lee bread or 100 cal thin bagel, turkey bacon, egg and cheese. Usually comes out to 250-300 cal depending on how much cheese and if I use 1 or two eggs. Usually, I'll make enough of the turkey for 2 days so I only have to make it every other day since that takes the longest.

    If I'm home and not going anywhere or if I am running late, it's usually 100 cal bagel, yogurt or granola bar.

    I have tried protein shakes but I just haven't found any of them that I like or that are filling. Soo, I guess it's usually the oatmeal or the breakfast sandwich

    1 cup plain greek yogurt.

    1/2 cup fresh fruit.
    1-2 Tbsp nuts, seeds, granola, or jam.

    I LOVE eating yogurt in the morning. It keeps me full and happy. I've eaten this way for so long that I miss it if I don't have it. I started out with fruit flavored, but now I enjoy plain and adding my own stuff - it takes a bit to get used to but now I don't miss the sweetness.

    Love breakfast and in a perfect world I would indulge in Cinnamon french toast with butter and maple syrup. Side of bacon, OJ. My current reality... cereal, 2% milk with fruit mixed in. Sigh

    I am not normally hungry in the morning, but I do feel the need to eat a meal to get some fuel into my body. So I am looking for some ideas. What is your favorite healthy breakfast?

    1) If you're not hungry in the morning and you'd rather consume your calories at other times in the day, there's no real compelling reason to eat first thing in the morning.

    2) More on topic, I usually go for some hard boiled eggs, cheese, and a tortilla. However, lately I've been favoring a cup of mixed cherries and berries, 1/2 cup of ff milk, and 1/4 cup of either Kind (flax seed) or Udi's (vanilla) granola. I've been surprised at how long this breakfast keeps me full.

    1. French toast, liberal amounts of butter on each slice and plenty of maple syrup, Hormel sausages links preferred, or crispy bacon

    2. 3-4, 8" diameter pancakes, butter and syrup amounts similar to my French toast, Maple Leaf sausages or crispy bacon

    3. Cora's chocolate hazelnut spread (Nutella, but it's not called that) and banana crepe

    4. 2 scramble eggs, black pepper, crispy bacon or sausage rounds, cheddar cheese wrapped up in a flour tortilla

    5. Sausage, egg, and cheese 6" from Subway with lettuce, cucumber, green peppers, and onions.

    What do I eat now? Carnation breakfast shake with 1% milk or Shredded Wheat with 1% milk when I don't have any breakfast mix.

    Oatmeal is my ultimate breakfast. Good fuel. Sprinkle a few blueberries or some apple slices on top; and presto!

    2 eggs
    2 small pepperoni sticks
    2 mushrooms
