Breakfast on the go

I buy Jimmy Dean D-lights breakfast sandwiches every week for work and then microwave them when I get in. Otherwise, I'd never eat breakfast. The turkey sausage, egg white, and low fat cheese sandwiches are awesome and 260 cal.

I eat the Kashi Go Lean Oatmeal...just put it in a microwave safe bowl for a minute and it fills you up!

I usually take some fruit, fiber bars, or even dry cereal... I'm an on-the-go type of person too!

Sometimes on Sundays I make egg frittatas, and bake them in muffin cups. Then I micro for 20 seconds before I head out the door. Frittatas are easy - just egg, and whatever else you want. Some of my go-to frittata ingredients are bacon pieces, spinach, cheddar, green chiles.

This morning was a grab and go breakfast, I had a banana, milk and nutrigrain bar.

it is hard for me to get breakfast when I am working too. A lot of the time I just grab a fiber one bar and some fruit. If I get up early enough I have an egg and toast. Peanut butter on toast is also easy for me to grab in the morning with 1/2 a banana (my 2 yr old eats the other half )

well i seen this on tv one day, but i have not tried it yet. Using a cake bunt pan add biscuits at the bottom your choice of meat then preshredded haskbrowns tthen top with more biscuits then pour egg beaters over the top and back in the oven. You will have to modify it to make it healthier though. but it sounds good and can last for the week inthe fridge. You can just slice thepiece that you want and throwit in the microwave.

I eat a protein shake with frozen fruit and a hard boiled egg. nom nom nom

We boil large batches of eggs once a week and have them available. When I bake chicken I'll often bake extra to have on hand in the fridge too. I also always keep string cheese and fruit around as those are good grab and go foods. Can you see a theme here? I have to have protein in my breakfast or I'm starving very quickly so oatmeal (even loaded with nuts and chia seeds) won't work for me.

When my husband goes hunting in the fall I make whole wheat bread and roll out small circles of the dough. Then I put scrambled eggs, cooked bacon and a little cheese in the center and seal the dough around it. I bake these and wrap them individually in foil. If he's in a trailer he just unwraps them and nukes them for a few seconds. If not he just eats them cold since they're completely cooked. It is a very filling, high protein, good carbs breakfast that keeps him going as he hikes all over. He has told me he doesn't get hungry until well after lunchtime and loves taking these with him.

I've made them for everyday breakfasts too but I don't always get that motivated.

Thanks for all the great ideas everyone! I am not a big fan of oatmeal (I used to have to put tons of sugar in it to be able to eat it) but maybe I will try it again. Thanks again!!!!

Throw blueberries/strawberries/blackberries/peaches in to add natural sugar... Yummy

Blueberry Eggos with a half serving of whipped cream cheese! I rush out the door every morning with those in my hand.

Love the bread idea!!!! I'll have to give that a try...baking time the same as the bread recipe?

Yeah, about there. Keep an eye on them and when they start to brown they're probably done. I do mine on a stoneware cookie sheet so the bottoms are nicely browned and don't tend to stick. They taste good and they're portable.

I love the special k protein meal bars. I'm at school all day during the week so i usually have that for lunch, with an apple.

Or any protein bar really, I just try to keep atleast 10g of protein and around 200 calories.
