Breakfast ideas?

One of the best pieces of advice I have ever heard was that you don't have to eat breakfast food for breakfast. If you like chicken salads or sandwiches, have it for breakfast. If you like soup or leftovers for breakfast, have it. You don't have to eat food other people say are for breakfast. All breakfast is, is breaking your fast. Eat healthy, log it and just enjoy what you have! THAT is what matters. Good luck!0

I really find that oatmeal is quick and filling. I also do a multiple grain waffle with a little peanut butter. Hope this helps!!0

Have you tried almond butter? Having some on a plain unsalted rice cake is really tasty. I like fruit cups too - Del Monte makes ones packed in water which have no added sugar. I usually have a mandarin orange cup with breakfast - has vitamin C and lots of potassium, which I have trouble working into my diet usually.0

Bagels with Cream cheese or Peanut butter.
Ham and cheese bagel toasted.
Left overs.
Warmed Peaches and cool-whip.
Sugar-Free Jello Pudding
Chocolate Rice cake topped with cool-whip or peanut butter.
Cottage cheese. (I like to crush up chips and add pepper and tabasco to mine)
Anything that suits your fancy would really make for a good breakfast. My Husband eats pasta for breakfast, as well as hamburgers and what not. He hates eggs and other breakfast foods. I try to get something carby to eat for breakfast so that I won't be as hungry come lunch time.0 -
greek yogurt with blueberries and ground flaxseed
1oz (only) macadamia nuts
sprinkle cinnamon on top
yum0 -
if you like sugary breakfast, make french toast!!! I use 45 calorie slices of whole grain bread (sara lee), and egg beaters to dip it in (30 calories/1 whole egg serving). I add cinnimon & salt to the egg beaters, soak the bread in it, fry it in a pan with 0 calorie spray oil, and measure out one serving of REAL maple syrup, not the corn syrupy brands like mrs. butterworths or anything. Its so low cal I usually have 2 pieces and then have a couple pieces of turkey bacon. Super good!!!!0

I agree that you don't HAVE to have breakfast food at breakfast. I dislike most breakfast food, so I more often than not don't have those type foods for breakfast.
If you want to, though, french toast is quick and easy. Just beat an egg, cinnamon, a splash of milk, vanilla and dip in pieces of wheat bread and cook in a pan. Quick, easy, nutritious, and tastey.0 -
I usually make some whole wheat toast/waffles with a small spread of nutella, might add pieces of banana on that, or I'll have some yogurt and I like to add some Kashi go lean crunch cereal to it (if it's just vanilla yogurt I'll add some type of fruit!) Very yummy! I don't eat a lot of eggs and oatmeal isn't very appealing to me. I'd rather sit down and eat a big plate of pancakes and hasbrowns but the toast/yogurt will suffice!0

1 whole egg + 3 tablespoons egg whites scrambled
1 thomas light english muffin (toasted w/a couple sprays 0 cal. butter)

half cup fiber one mixed w/whole grain cheerios & fruit
omlettes

I'm generally have a protein shake or bar and maybe a piece of fruit, or a fruit smoothie. If you like boiled egg whites, those are another good option.0

i completely agree--
i am the girl who eats salads at every meal.
i have also eaten jenny-o's turkey burger with avocado and a lil feta cheese with a big old salad for breakfast.
i tend to eat most of my calories earlier in the day and lighten up as the day progresses.0 -
I have found that Frosted Mini Wheats (bite size) are great for breakfast!! I myself eat them without milk, nice crunch with a little sweetness!!
Sometimes I half the serving, I will have 12 biscuits before I take the kids to school and after cleaning up the get out the door rush I will finish the rest of the serving, another 12 biscuits.
Also not bad as a snack!!0 -
PUMPKIN SHAKE
almond milk
a frozen banana (put in fridge night before use instead of ice as to not dilute flavor)
1/3c pumpkin puree
1tbs flaxseed oil (a great healthy omega-3 source) great nutty flavor
1/3 cup greek yogurt (you can pop in the freezer too/but not necessary)
cinnamon (great spice for weight loss)
nutmeg (great spice for weight loss)
agave or stevia to sweeten (a sweetner-- sometimes i don't use any)
you can also used your fav fruits for any type of shake- strawberry/banana/pineapple/blueberry)0 -
Orowheat thin 100 cal roll, 1/4 cup egg beater/reddi egg, 2 slices of oscar meyer precooked bacon, 1/2 slice sargento reduced fat thin sliced cheese. It's less than 200 calories and feels decadent and filling:) Better than Mickey D's... Not really, but close enough. LOL0
