    I see where you have whole flaxseed listed as an ingredient. Did you know that the whole flaxseed only passes thru....the body can't break down the outer coating. (per Dr. Oz) I use the ground flaxseed or grind it in the coffee grinder. Just some information I thought I'd pass on.

    I posted a recipe for whole wheat pumpkin protein pancakes today. You can make them on the weekend and freeze them! Just pop in the toaster oven to reheat for busy week days!

    Make a poached egg, while the water boils, wash some fresh spinach, wilt the damp spinach in a skillet. Serve the egg over the spinach. The egg yolk makes a nice sauce. I like to serve it on a piece of wheat toast smeared with a tsp or so of light cream cheese Dee-licious.

    One that I enjoy is 2 cage free eggs, 1/4 cup of all whites I first sautee baby bella mushrooms, fresh deli turkey, spinach in a tablespoon of olive oil then add my egg mixture to it.. while that is cooking together I add either goat cheese or feta to it. It is pretty amazing.

    Fish omelets are great also! Dont knock it til you try it. =0)

    I miss bread .. so .. this was my breakfast this morning and my solution to bread cravings ...

    homemade flour griddled flat bread
    1/4 cup unbleached wheat flour
    pinch of salt
    aout 1/8 water

    mix then knead it a little ... roll out on on floured board ... a little get off excess flour .. olive oil (optional) on each side ( very little) put on very hot flat dry cast iron pan ... turn a few times ( I use my fingers) ... will puff up in the middle

    omlette .. 1 egg white and one whole egg ... a couple chopped mushrooms , a chopped slice of onion, little choped cilantro

    when my flat bread is done I turn off the pan and it is hot enough to make my omlette ... a little spray (canola) .. add my onion, mushrooms .. turn , add egg mixture..

    put my omlette on my flat bread .. pinch of ground sea salt (the only kind I use) .. couple teaspoons of pace salsa ...fold over and there ya go ... ends up under 200 cal .. about 24 carbs, 5 fat, 13 protein and 0 sugar ...

    It sounds complcated but it is not ... I make these homemade flat breads all the time ... only takes a few minutes .... when I get that urge for bread.. great with soup etc.. flat bread ends up being 100 cal, 22 carbs., 3 protein, and 0 fats or sugar if you leave off the olive oil .. you can make 2 small ones or one bigger one ...

    I like 2/3-3/4 cup oatmeal crisp with 4 oz nonfat greek yogurt (220-240 cal) and pretty filling

    crepes with nutella and strawberries is also delicious
  • :P I'm a sucker for some Yogurt, Vitamins, a hot mug of green/pomegranate tea, and some wheat toast.

    So many amazing recipes, not sure which to make first!
  • Also, I love a good tomato and onion omelette with some black pepper. :)

    1. Breakfast sandwich:
    1bagle thin-110 calories
    1tsp onion sauteed
    2 eggs whites- do not scramble
    Once u flip the eggs over place 1/2 slice of cheese on top and place eggs on bagel.

    2. sautee onions, tomatoes, green bell pepper (if u want some meat, throw in diced turkey deli meat)
    1 egg, 2 egg whites.
    Heat two corn tortillas in a pan and you can make breakfast tacos with your egg filling or just have them on the side.

    3. Trader Joe's oatmeal with 1/4 cup of blueberries.

    I normally have black coffee with 2 splendas or crystal light limonade or water.
