1/3 cup oatmeal
1 cup frozen fruit
1 banana
water - at least 1/3 cup
nuke it in the micro for 4 - 5 minutes
Serve with 3 tablespoons yoghurt - sometimes greek depends what is in the fridge.
If you can stand your oatmeal runny then more water and less time in the micro.0 -
I've been making crustless quiches with eggs, egg whites, peppers, onions, cheese, sausage/ham. I just cut a piece and microwave it.
Overnight oats
Greek yogurt with berries, pb2, whatever I feel like
Bagel with cream cheese and smoked salmon
Ricotta pudding (I add milk and some instant pudding mix, and some fruit sometimes too - excellent with frozen fruit and left in the fridge overnight)
I did breakfast burritos for a while - cheese, microwaved egg, two breakfast sausage links in a tortilla
When I have more time
Croque-Madame (ham and swiss open faced sandwich toasted with a fried egg on top
Protein pancakes
Crepes (typically I put ham and swiss in it, or jam/nutella)
Oatmeal
Yeah I like variety.0 -
1/2 cup (raw) oatmeal, but cooked of course. With 2 teaspoons Splenda brown sugar blend and 1/4 cup 1% milk. (And COFFEE! with 1/4 cup whole milk.) Satisfying and holds me for 2 to 3 hours. I couldn't enjoy this on my previous low carb diet, but I can with MFP! : ) It all equals 253 calories.0

Plain Greek yogurt with maple syrup or honey, and cinnamon, mixed with a chopped apple and 1/4 cup raw old fashioned oats
1 cup cottage cheese with a grapefruit
PB and banana on whole wheat toast
Used to eat a lot of overnight oats, but tired of them.0 -
Smoothie every single morning. I LOVE my Vitamix! Base is always a cup of coconut milk. I add in 1-2 servings of fruit (usually mixed berries and a small chunk of banana) and 1-2 servings of veggies (kale, spinach, cucumber are my go-to veggies) and 1 tbsp. chia seeds.0

I always drink hot tea or lemon water first thing followed with my new favorite chia seed pudding. I make on Sunday and it lasts me through the week. Very easy, healthy, and is full of protein and fiber so its very filling. I switch up the fruit topping I use. Blueberry is my favorite and gives me the extra boost of antioxidants. I will also sometimes add 1 tsp Acai powder to search serving before I eat.

I eat after I get to work, so I need something fast and easy. I have a protein bar.0

I make 2 quarts of steel cut oatmeal weekly. The soak overnight and cook for 20 minutes kind. I scoop some out daily top it with peanut butter and nuke it. I have a little fruit with it. I save my sugar for chocolate.0

I usually mix all this up Sunday night because quinoa takes so long to fully cook and expand, but I end up with:
- quinoa
- ground flax seed
- chia seed
- honey
- soy milk if available. sometimes it's homemade almond milk, other times it's just water
I just reheat it on the stove. If I wind up with more water or milk, I'll toss a bit of oatmeal in to soak the rest up. It ends up begin a little over 4 tbsp total and around 220-300 calories.
Sometimes if I feel like doing something savoury in the morning, I cut the honey and drop an egg in to cook.0 -
Right now it's: 1 whole egg, scrambled with salsa (and cilantro if I've got it), half an English muffin, coffee. Other days, it's ⅓ cup of homemade muesli with ⅓ cup low-fat yogurt and maybe a half cup of fresh berries (if I've got any); sometimes it's reheated oatmeal with toasted cocoanut and almonds, cherry-flavoured craisins and almond milk. Still working on creating a healthy breakfast muffin that can be frozen.0

Coffee with milk
Two bananas
Two containers Greek yogurt
1 slice whole grain bread toasted and topped with peanut butter
Protein shake0 -
1/2 cup (dry measured) oatmeal cooked ( makes 1 cup) mix with about 15 raisins and some cinnamon and brown sugar....mmmm....0
-
Whole wheat toast with peanut butter with either a banana or tea.0

Every once in awhile I'll make this on a weekday, but usually on weekends (when I have more time), I make this (imagine it stacked up, from bottom to top): 0.5 english muffin, 1 tbs chevre, 0.25 avocado, 1 slice of tomato, a little red onion, a poached egg, raw spinach, and 1 tbs salsa. The whole thing is ~250 calories, 25 g of protein. I'll have one or two depending on my plan for the day.
Weekdays: either a slice of toast with chevre and smoked salmon, or a packet of oatmeal, depending on how much time I have.0 -
Yes, 1/2 cup egg whites scrambled, and 1 cup tea. Or a protein shake for breakfast. This keeps me going until a 10am snack.0
-
Coffee and a protein shake with banana. Every. Single. Morning. (of course if I didn't enjoy it I wouldn't be drinking it)0

When I first get up (7:00):
A homemade Americano (two shots of espresso) with a teaspoon of coconut oil.
A Chobani (6 oz) with fruit on the bottom.
A pint of iced ginger tea (which really helps my digestion).
Before work (around 10:30):
Either an egg, a bagel with cream cheese (if I know it will be a while before I can eat again), plain oatmeal with coconut milk, or almonds.0 -
Strawberry yogurt with vanilla and blueberry clusters, almonds, and grapes with a glass of unsweetened organic soy milk. Sometimes 2 boiled eggs. Sometimes whole wheat blueberry pancakes with some whole raspberry syrup. And a Gevalia Cafe Creations K-cup usually every morning. A glass of soy milk really keeps me full. I feel like yogurt and milk are awesome in keeping me full and losing weight.0

Cereal or a smoothie. My cereal is mini shredded wheat n' bran, coconut yogurt, sliced almonds, shredded unsweetened coconut and blueberries and or strawberries. My smoothie is usually 2 fruits (one being a banana), 2 servings of veggies (one being kale or spinach), spirulina, matcha, fish oil, scoop of whey protein. I call it my kitchen sink smoothie as who knows what else I might add to it depending on the day... chia seeds, flax seeds, cocoa powder, PB2, coffee concentrate that I make.0

I like old fashioned oatmeal with Flaxseed Oil, Protein Powder and lots of cinnamon.0
