My mornings consist of popping some toast in the toaster then slapping some butter on it....
Wheat toast of course, but the carbs SUCK and the butter sucks as well. What can I do to "better" my toast?
Peanut Butter?
Regular Jelly?
Peanut Butter would be more filling.
What do you do in the mornings?

    put a few slices of turkey or pop a morningstar veggie burger in the microwave for 60 sec! I personally love the veggie one and the mushroom one!

    I eat 1 piece of wheat toast with 1 tbsp. of natural peanut butter and an apple. This is my breakfast most mornings and keeps me full till lunch.

    You could try some no sugar added jams, or maybe just sliced fruit on your toast. When I had toast in the mornings, I always ate it with a couple of slices of tomato, and sometimes an egg. I usually just have a banana now, though.

    I love Kashi cereal - my favourites (or I guess the only ones I've tried so far) are Honey Flax, Toasted Berry, and Honey Puff. Honey Puff isn't as filling though as the other too. They have high protein and high fibre. With some almond milk or skim milk, only 260 calories so I will sometimes cut up banana, strawberries, etc. to add some sweetness.

    Other breakfast foods I eat are bodywise whole wheat english muffins, egg creations garden vegetable and veggie bacon. Super filling!

    You could stick to your toast but add on eggs, bacon, tomato.. have a healthy breakfast sandwich.

    I like the Village Hearth low fat english muffins with a egg and low fat cheese for breakfast, fast and easy or a fresh fruit smoothie made with frozen fruit I freeze myself and almond milk. Good get and go fuel.

    Lately I've been making a breakfast parfait. I take a Yoplait thick and creamy yogurt and layer in a high fiber cereal. This morning I had the new FiberPlus cinnamon oat cereal with it. I also usually have some fruit. The yogurt is 100 cal. I try to pick a lower cal cereal....80-110 cal. So altogether with the fruit my breakfast is usually 250-300 calories.

    I mix 1/2 cup Greek Yogurt with 1/2 cup Uncle Sam's cereal or other high fiber, low sugar cereal, then eat a couple slices roast turkey breast to get in some extra protein.

    I was just having 2 pieces of toast with peanut butter, a ramekin sized bowl of yogurt and a mug of water, but i read somewhere that a bigger breakfast with smaller lunches and dinners is better, so i am trying out having an egg, a banana muffin, yogurt and sometimes a sausage along with my mug of water,
    It seems to be better, i have been snacking less in the morning. I usually have lots of time to cook, though, I get up an hour and a half before i have to be out the door.

    Ham is incredibly low-fat and high protien... but I would personally use cheese or just add yogurt seperately.
