Low calorie breakfast options?

Depending on the bread you use, and how much avocado, Avocado Toast is about 300 calories. Define "quick" though! I stick some bread in the toaster while a pan heats with cooking spray in it. When the toast pops up, I put an egg in the pan and let it fry. While it fries, I slice half an avocado and put it on the toast. By that point, the egg is probably done and can slide right on top. Top with salt, pepper, and hot sauce. Insanely delicious.

I had a lot of success with making an egg white crustless queshe packed full of veggies. I make it Sunday night, cut it into 8 portions and have a piece for breakfast every morning!

Okay, I'll try again! Stick some spinach in a pan with some garlic, S+P, and red chile flakes (if you can find frozen pre-chopped garlic, that's ideal here). Stir it around until it wilts. Stick it on a plate. Put a piece of whole wheat toast in the toaster. Fry an egg in the same pan. Put it on the spinach. Use spread of choice on the toast (or not). Veggies, grains, protein, pretty balanced! Might be able to grab a few berries or something on the side!

They're "muffins" but made with egg, brown rice, corn, spinach, and tomato. Like little mini-frittatas. You can make a batch over the weekend and keep them in the fridge. Just zap them for a few seconds to take the chill off (or eat cold, whatevs!) I made them a few months back, they were delicious.

Your pick of healthy cereal in unsweetened vanilla almond milk. Silk brand is only 30 cal a cup.
I like to eat turkey bacon/sausage or chicken sausage with a boiled egg in a low calorie tortilla. La Tortilla Factory has some that are 70 cal with extra fiber and protein. I can make it all the night or weekend before and just assemble in the morning. Goat and Feta cheese adds a lot of flavor for little cals as well.

I am a last minute person. The best thing to do would be to pre-prep your breakfast. You could make homemade breakfast bars or healthy muffins.

Here's a few breakfast bar ideas: Breakfast Bars

You could also hard-boil and peal some eggs. If you have time to sit down for a few minutes, make some instant oats (I like BetterOat brand) and put a Tbsp. of Peanut Butter in it. Its delicious. Another quick ideas would include whole grain waffles with a Tbsp. of all-natural peanut butter or nut butter on top.

Take 6 eggs, beat them up, put them into muffin tin and bake in the oven for about 15-20mins, ( 6 eggs makes 12 muffins ) you can have 2 muffins for 100 cals, ( or less ) and you can do them in batches and keep them in the fridge and just grab them as you head out the door

I chop up a tomato and put that in the bottom of the muffin tins before i pour the egg over, they are yummy, have no refined sugar and a good protein content.

My go to breakfast for a long time has been egg white muffins. I use the over sized muffin pans. 1 bag of spinach, 1 bell pepper, 1/2 package of ready cooked turkey bacon, 1 package green onion. Chop all of that up and add salt/pepper and seasoning. Divide it into 12 muffin cups. Fill it 3/4 full with egg white and sprinkle it with a bit of shredded cheese on top. Bake in the oven 350 for 30 minutes. I usually make a ton and freeze them. Roughly 130 calories per muffin.

The muffin omelets are wonderful. Tweek your recipe to how you like breakfast in a smart way. I make a bunch of these freeze them and then pull only what I need out for the week.

Toasted sour dough English muffin open faced with cooked spinach, roasted red pepper and poached eggs. I put Dijon on the muffin for extra kick.... Under 300 calories and is my new favorite

id like to stay under 300 calories if possible. Open to anything quick and easy to make!

I don't have alot of time in the morning so I have a bowl of boiled eggs in the fridge. One egg (with siracha), one piece of turkey bacon and a slice of ezkiel bread (toast has one pump of olive oil spray) plus coffee with skim = 214 calories

Found this on reddit - bit of work prepping your breakfasts one day; but will last you over a month if you follow the recipe (picture link at the end):

Breakfast Burritos - 350cal per fajita, makes 40

Ingredients:
36 eggs
2 pounds sausage (in the fat tubes).
4 cups (2 packages) shredded cheddar.
1 jar (2 cups) medium salsa.
1 large white onion.
2 green bell peppers.
2 tomatoes.
2 cans (4 oz each) diced green chiles.
40 ten-inch tortillas.
1 package of 20 frozen hashbrowns

How to make: Chop all veggies, mix in a bowl with the salsa and chiles. Set aside. Separately cook the following: Whip eggs with a dash of milk. Scramble them, adding all the cheese towards the end. Cook the sausage until brown. Cook the hashbrowns to desired doneness on each side (easier if you have a skillet).

Now, combine everything (veggie mixture, eggs, sausage) except the hashbrowns. I had to split into two bowls to do this cause it was so much food.

Cut a hashbrown in half and place it in the center of a tortilla. Use a half-cup measure to scoop the mixture on top of the hashbrown. Roll the burrito Freeze in a single layer on a greased cookie sheet, then wrap the frozen burritos in seran wrap. I further put the seran-wrapped burritos in freezer bags to protect flavor.

To heat them up, I wrap 2 burritos in paper towels and microwave for 4 minutes.

I have been eating the last few days for breakfast, 1 orange, a cup of coffee and cream, and a Smart Ones Smoothie. The total breakfast is 230 calories.

Sandwich thin with 2 piece of turkey bacon, 1 egg or egg beaters and 1/2 a wedge of light laughing cow cheese - about 230 calories with a regular egg

^^^ This. I use a bagel thin, sometimes laughing cow or sometimes FF Cheddar cheese. I bake an entire carton of egg beaters for 15 min @ 425, then sprinkle the cheese on top and bake another 9-10min. Pull out and cut into 8 sections- plop it on a bagel thin add some cooked bacon. Wrap individually in saran wrap, place in a ziploc bag. I freeze half of the sandwiches and put the other half in the refrigerator and I pull one out every morning, wrap in a paper towel and nuke for 60 seconds. Completely kills the urge to run to McD's for a breakfast sandwich and soooo many less calories, and I can eat it on the drive to work.
