Breakfast of champions??? Suggestions??

I just grab some fresh fruit on my way out the door! I have issues with waking up early enough for breakfast [slamming the alarm(s) at 3am, hours before they go off, to adjust it to waking up RIGHT as I need to leave]. xD; I'd go for some Almond Milk with Raisin Bran, with some slices of banana otherwise. Yummmm!

Oatmeal is filling. Mix in a tablespoon of peanut butter and some honey. Yum!

A couple of eggs, fried in butter, or baked with leftover veggies and cheese.

Not sure how either of these will do with your schedule, but my favorite filling breakfasts include a bit of healthy fat. I toast a couple of slices of Ezekial sprouted grain bread, and add a lovely smashed avocado. Top with with some cracked pepper, turmeric, and sometimes Redmond Real salt. Sometimes a couple slices of tomato or onion. Takes me a few minutes at most to make.

My other go to breakfast is Bobs Red Mill rolled oats (usually 1 serving, maybe more if I know it will be a long, physically busy day), with berries or apple, and a tablespoon of Tropical Traditions Coconut Butter (coconut cream concentrate) or unrefined coconut oil, and a tablespoon of chia seeds, and sometimes a tablespoon of hemp seeds as well.

Both options push into 350-450 calorie range for me, but can be modified up or down for your needs.

Love the taste of both, and keeps me going for hours. I don't have/make time for 3 meals and 2-3 snacks. The healthy fats really satiate.

If I have no time, I will blend (not stir) unrefined coconut oil, butter (from grass fed/pastured cows), collagen gelatin powder, and Plantation blackstrap molasses (this brand tastes like caramel-like) into my coffee. My Kitchen Ninja is always ready to go. So, basically, a hot smoothy. Those ingredients are worth the research. High calorie for 'coffee', but when I do make it, I use it as a meal and can go all morning on the energy it provides. Otherwise, just plain black coffee for me. I hate that it sounds like "Bulletproof" coffee, if only because I've been drinking my 'hot smoothy' for years before I heard of the other. But there you go.

Included brand names in case that helps.

2 eggs and two strips of bacon.

You can line muffin tins with 1 strip of bacon and crack an egg in it. Bake at 400 for around 10-15 minutes I believe. I store these in the fridge and pop them in the microwave when pressed for time. Eggs and bacon have just enough calories, protein and fat to keep me satisfied for hours!

Do you use Instant oatmeal or do you make it yourself?! That sounds so good!

I personally use steel cut oats. I make a few servings ahead and put in mason jars so it's easy to grab. Heat and reconstitute with a little water, milk or almond milk. Easy to mix whatever you want like nuts, fruit or granola.

Man shake

I like big breakfasts, but my standby is a 2 egg vegetable omelet with feta. I use some kind of green and some other veggies, normally. Takes about 10 minutes. I usually add some dairy or smoked salmon and some fruit on the side. Keeps me full for a long time.

When I'm feeling rushed I do oatmeal (steel cut in the rice cooker--I start it when I get up before I get in the shower) and add protein powder and berries or a banana. I like to have veggies plus dairy/smoked salmon on the side also, but on occasion am rushed and just do the oatmeal. Even at less than 300 calories it's pretty filling.

Bacon, egg, and cheese taco with a fiery salsa. Because it hits all my macros. And bacon.

whole-grain bread, crunchy peanut butter and honey on top, keeps me going for five hours at least.
Also Greek whole fat yoghurt with nuts and banana and/or raspberries - or eggs, as others have suggested.. I like to scramble them with pre-cooked lentils and fry this like a pancake: eat with tomato sauce, add feta, sometimes I also eat it sweet, keeps you going for hours. As said before: mix fat and protein, try to get some fiber rather than carbs, carbs will come with most options to chose from anyways...

My breakfast of champions: pancakes w/ a little preserves or apple/pumpkin butter, egg whites, bacon, sausage, apple, tea/coffee

1 cup (226 g) Greek yogurt and 100g fruit, usually blueberries or grapes

For speed i'd say maybe smashed avocado on toast or peanut butter on toast. Toast is good for speed and the toppings are good for protein and healthy fats :-)
I like fruit n yogurts too.
Any sort of egg breakfast but for days off when i have more time :-)

I usually eat something like:



and



In order to get plenty of protein, fiber, and healthy fats. That way I stay full instead of getting hungry again in 45 minutes.
