I'm trying to get out of my box of multi-grain Cherrios and milk or chocolate protein powder mixed with oatmeal (the latter is VERY tasty- I just ate it too frequently so I'm getting tired of it...). I want to add more protein, but don't like to eat much meat in the morning. I'm a fruit, yogurt, or complex carb kinda gal.
Feel free to share your recipes if it requires cooking- hopefully not in the morning. I'm the kind of person that rolls out of bed and gets showered just in time to run out the door to work.
Thanks in advance!

Water? For real bro? I like food. Mostly oatmeal with protein, cocoa powder, and peanut butter. Breakfast burritos with homemade pork sausage. Refried bean, bacon and, egg burritos. Homeade granola with greek yogurt...0

It only takes 5-10 minutes to scramble up some eggs. I do this almost daily, then reheat at at the office and eat.
Pre-dice some veggies that you like and toss them all in a container.
In the morning toss them in a skillet, sautee.
While the veggies cook, crack & mix your eggs. Add them to the skillet. Scramble.
Add cheese, black beans, salsa, sour cream, etc0 -

I like food with my water :laugh: . I drink roughly a gallon of water a day, but I couldn't just start my day out with only water.0 -

thin, crispy toast topped with cottage cheese and avocado OR topped w/spicy tomato marmalade and avocado. DELISH.0

I rotate between 2 meals:
Greek yogurt with blueberries and low fat granola.
Homemade breakfast sandwich consisting of a toasted Thomas' bagel thin, egg white patty (usually homemade, but I keep the frozen ones around in case I don't have time), 2 slices of Canadian bacon and a piece of Sargento thin sliced 2% fat Colby-Jack cheese.
Both run 225 calories. Oh and coffee.... always coffee.0 -
Steel cut oatmeal0

3 slices Natural uncured bacon & 2 cage free eggs cooked with a tablespoon of coconut oil! Sometimes I throw some onion, bell pepper, tomato & mushrooms in with it!
I'm Paleo btw!0 -
I eat Dannon Light and Fit Greek yogurt every day for breakfast. I don't eat unitl about 10 AM, and I need something that I can eat quickly between meetings. It's delish and fills me up for a while.0

I've been making "cookies" that I can bring to work to have breakfast when I'm ready, and they are so good! Mix 3 mashed bananas and 1 cup oatmeal, shape into cookies and bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees. You can add 1/2 cup of mix-ins...this week it's sunflower seeds and mini dark chocolate chips0

My favorite is 227 grams of Fage yogurt mixed with 1/2 an apple plus a spoon of watered down Trutein cinabun whey protein.0

Try Baked Blueberry & Peach Oatmeal. This is from Taste of Home . Make on the weekend and have enough to just microwave during the week. I enjoy this0

My go-to breakfasts -
Two eggs
Sourdough or wheat toast with butter
Black coffee
Fruit (lately it's grapes, berries, banana, grapefruit or whatever I've got on hand)
Oatmeal
1/3 cup greek yogurt
1 Tbs honey
Fresh fruit (berries and/or bananas are my fave)
Walnuts
Cinnamon
If I've got a busy morning, I'll do overnight oats in a mason jar - same basic recipe, but you do most of it the night before
1/2 c oats
1/2 cup milk or milk substitute
1/3 cup greek yogurt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Put it all in the jar, cap tightly, give it a shake and put it in the fridge. Next morning, stir it up, add fruit, honey & nuts, grab a spoon and go. I love that it's totally portable or just a quick fix to eat at home.0 -

Ever tried "Overnight Oats"? They're the BEST! And the variety of what you can do with them is endless....

I'm pretty basic when I bother to eat breakfast. I usually combine an egg, some Laughing Cow, a light English muffin, and some variety of vegetable (tomato & onion slices, Recipe Ready blends, a few pepper strips, etc.) in various ways. Sometimes I have a little fried ham or turkey bacon; sometimes I leave off the cheese and swap in some avocado; sometimes it's a breakfast sandwich with a fried egg and sometimes it's a big scramble with a muffin half on the side.0

Black coffee. Breakfast of champions.0
