Breakfast Poll!

I have a hard boiled egg, and usually a Jimmy Dean breakfast delite sandwich

Mmmm, breakfast.

On weekdays, I eat a bowl of oatmeal. I make my own instant oatmeal "packets" with brown sugar and sugar free French Vanilla coffee creamer (yes, coffee creamer), add some almond milk, cinnamon, and 2 T of PB2 (chocolate or regular). About a minute in the microwave and I've got a yummy breakfast. Sometimes I'll also add a scoop of protein powder, which is just as delicious.

On weekends, I like making cheesy scrambled eggs with turkey bacon and a piece of toast or whole wheat pancakes with sugar free syrup or, my most recent discovery, two pieces of French toast with a layer of whipped cream cheese in the middle, with a little syrup. If I'm eating breakfast on the run, it's McDonald's egg white delight with a fruit and yogurt parfait.

This has been my go-to breakfast for months now:

1 peice of Honey/Oat wheat bread with 1 tablespoon of PB on it and then top it with 2 eggs. The combination is actual quite awesome and I can make it two ways.

If I had time, I'll leave the yolks runny and basically have soft boiled eggs on toast.

If I'm short on time, I cook the eggs a little more so the yolk isn't runny, throw the eggs on top of the toast and eat it while I walk to my truck.

Regardless of what I eat for solid food I usually have some ON Mocha Cappachino Whey with unsweetened Silk Vanilla. Using almond milk with whey makes it taste so much better and it's only 30 cal per cup.

A couple of scrambled eggs with a couple of tablespoons of salsa--yum!

Today I had a protein shake made with Greek yogurt, protein powder, half a banana, and some dark chocolate Peanut Butter & Co PB.

Yesterday I had 3/4c of steel cut oats with half a scoop of protein powder, half a banana, a splash of milk, and some dark chocolate Peanut Butter & Co PB.

The day before that it was a protein shake with peaches in place of the banana & pb.

Tomorrow it will probably be oatmeal and blueberries, because I need to use the last of my berries before they get all shrivelly and gross.

Throw your blueberries and strawberries into the freezer and never worry about them going to mush before you use them!

I usually have either boiled egg whites and avocado (sounds weird but it's yummy) or a smoothie with 1/2 banana, spinach, almond milk, ice, pb2(powdered peanut butter) and a tb of cocoa powder.

Hash browns topped with egg whites and turkey chili.
Brown rice topped with egg whites and ground turkey
(both of the above topped with salsa)
Oatmeal with walnuts, flax, and craisins
Toast with peanut butter and sliced strawberries

Hard boiled eggs
Yogurt w/ granola
Quest bar (if I'm in a rush)

I eat the same thing every workday. I get to work at 6:30 and have six Ritz crackers with 3/4 serving of Trader Joe's PB. On my 9 AM break, I eat a caramel apple breakfast cookie with a cup of 2% milk. Surprisingly, I don't find it boring.

On weekends, I mix it up. It totally depends on how late I sleep in, what I'm doing that day, what time I plan to eat lunch and what I'm having for lunch. A lot of Saturdays, lunch *is* my breakfast. However, when I eat breakfast at home, I usually eat Better Oats oatmeal (or a bowl of cereal) made with 2% milk with a glass of OJ on the side and make sure that I have a high protein lunch. On Sundays when I go to church and know that I won't be eating for at least 4-5 hours, I'll have something with a good bit of protein like polenta with eggs and sausage.

A local natural foods store sent out these recipes for overnight oatmeal with their latest flyer. I'm totes going to try these.
