    My go to breakfasts are:
    1 over medium egg on 1 slice whole grain bread.
    40 get oatmeal with .5 Oz walnuts and 21st brown sugar.
    2/3 c fruit and nut granola with 1 cup milk.

    I eat those almost all the time and can turn them out with 10 mins in the kitchen.

    I do the make ahead breakfast sandwiches with a light English muffin, an egg, a slice of ham and a slice of cheese. I make 1-2 weeks worth and freeze them. When I get to work, I heat it up in the microwave and eat while checking my emails. I do find that I cannot take them straight from the freezer to the microwave - I have to let them defrost first. Otherwise, the meat and muffin overcook while the egg is still frozen. I have tried the various defrost settings on the microwave without success so I just pull the sandwich out of the freezer the day before.

    With the ingredients I use, it comes out to 247 calories, 28g carbs, 10g fat, 20g protein, and 8g of fiber.

    I used to eat oatmeal for breakfast most days but switched to the sandwiches to increase protein intake.

    @sjp_511‌ I tried making that way at first too. Now I just make the egg patties and keep a package of whole grain bagels at work since we have a toaster. That way, I microwave the eggs for 2 minutes while the bagel is toasting. It turns out much better.

    I have considered freezing the egg separately and then assembling my sandwich on the morning. But so far I have done a pretty good job at remembering to defrost my sandwich ahead of time.

    And making them all at once means only 1 mess to clean up. I can't slice an English muffin without generating a lot of crumbs.

    @SconnieCat‌ a muffin top pan works really well to. They come out the exact size to throw on a whole wheat or multigrain bagel.

    Wonderful tip!! Thanks so much!

    I prepare a weeks worth of overnight oatmeal or greek yogurt/frozen berries/granola.

    Overnight oatmeal = 1 part old fashioned oats, 1 part milk, 1 part applesauce and cinnamon or apple pie spice to taste (I do 1/2 cup of everything and 1/4 tsp apple pie spice). Store in fridge 5-7 days - the flavor gets better as it sits.

    Yogurt parfait = 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt, 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries. Add to 8 oz container (dont mix) and store in fridge up to 5-7 days. I also make 1/2 cup servings of granola (homemade but you could use store bought) and mix them together in a bowl when I'm ready to eat.

    My breakfast is almost always a homemade parfait. One cup fat free vanilla yogurt, half a handful of mixed berries (frozen, but thawed by the time I eat it), and two to three plastic spoonfuls of Kashi Go Lean Crunch cereal for texture. It keeps me full for quite a while and takes just five minutes to put together either before bed or in the morning before work. About 225 calories.

    I'm not a morning person so I decided I needed to make this meal so I don't have to plan it out ... and it's still yummy: oat (50g), cinnamon, one banana (100kcal) or mixed frozen berries topped with boiling water and while I do my make up I let it soak (if I dont have access to a microwave). and of course coffee with 1,6% milk = 295 kcal.
