I'm looking for some new healthy and easy to make breakfast ideas/recipes. I'm getting tired of the same things over and over, so I'm just wondering what everyone else has for breakfast, or wondering if anyone has some recommendations. Maybe this will give others ideas as well.

I typically go between eggs, oatmeal and cereal. (Cereal probably is not the best choice, I know)

What do you usually have for breakfast?

Comment away!

    I poach an egg, slice some tomato, and toast an english muffin. Cheaper than going to McDonald's and getting an english mcmuffin

    I'm pretty repetitive with my breakfasts; it's usually eggs and toast with a piece of fruit. But sometimes I'll do...

    A whole grain English muffin with peanut butter and a piece of fruit
    Yogurt and granola
    Flax/whole grain waffles topped with greek yogurt and fruit (blueberries are my favorite)
    Homemade banana muffins (I have a healthy-ish, no flour recipe)

    I keep seeing lots of recipes for protein pancakes from scratch, so that's something I want to try soon - especially pumpkin pancakes! Yum.

    I go through phases but I most recently discovered this meal and I love it. I have it almost every day and it really satisfies me.

    2 slices of toast topped with a misture of 1/14-1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese and low sugar jam. I have been using pumkin butter the last few days instead of jam. It has been very tasty.

    I've fallen into a whole wheat toast w/ unsweetened almond butter rut myself. However, I came across this recipe last night and it's in my plans for the weekend.

    My current favorite is plain greek yogurt mixed with vanilla protein powder, chia seeds, and sliced banana. I make it the night before and it thickens up overnight and tastes kind of like a thick, creamy pudding.

    This morning it was 2% plain fage greek yogurt with 1 Tbsp of Chocolate Pudding mix (powder) and 1/2 Tbsp of Peanut Butter. Mix that together and you have heavenly goodness that tastes like a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup....just WAY healthier :)

    Pretty boring.

    Right after workout I usually make a strawberry/protein smoothie. After showering I usually have some greek yogurt.

    During the week, I aim for simplicity at work by eating a packet of oatmeal with 1 scoop of vanilla protein shake & some flax seed. Sometimes adding a ¼ cup of fruit like some blueberries or banana or maybe a handful of raisins or nuts for texture or extra crunch.

    When able to cook a hot meal at home, I love a spinach egg white omelet with about 6 egg whites with 1 yoke ratio & add spinach & a sprinkle of feta cheese. Serve with a piece of Arnold thin bread & maybe a slice or two of tomato.

    Another favorite is coconut oil in the pan to lightly sautee some onion & green pepper sliced or diced & add the same egg white/yolk ratio & add 1 link of turkey sausage diced or sausage crumbles to the mix. Sometimes I add a sprinkle of cheese on top. Yum~enjoy & Super healthy…

    For me it's either and omelette with 2 or 3 eggs, some peppers, onion and cheese.

    Protein pancakes are another one I enjoy, I use a scoop of protein powder, 2 eggs, ground almonds and raspberries on top.

    Otherwise it's cottage cheese with full fat natural yoghurt, milled organic flaxseed with pumpkin and sunflower seeds as well as ground almonds and frozen raspberries thrown in!

    I like whole grain toast with butter and I make my own granola on the weekends, which I can then eat all week with fruit and milk. Sometimes I have baked goods around that make great breakfasts. And I'll often have a protein bar.

    Today I had a slice of toast with cookie butter and Greek yogurt on the side. It fit in my calories but my protein will end up a little lower than I'd like today.

    Yesterday it was 2 eggy-in-a-baskets (eggs cooked inside of the toast).

    The day before that I had apple cinnamon pancakes (again, with Greek yogurt on the side).

    And the day before that was a pumpkin pie protein shake.

    Eggs with some form of other protein, fruit depends on whether its a weekday or weekend. Breakfast has to be something warm and filling for me :)
