    This morning I ate baked salmon, raw zucchini and a grapefruit. Yesterday I ate watermelon, blackberries and fresh spinach. The day before, I ate cottage cheese, sliced banana, diced apple and almonds.

    I need breakfast ideas. I don't have lots of time so it either has to be something that i can heat up at work or eat in the car on way to work. Eating at home before work doesn't usually pan out. I'm not a shake kind of person either.

    Are you okay with frozen stuff?
    I've been eating the Jimmy Dean Omelets,
    I nuke one for about 45 seconds, stuff it full of spinach and then give it another minute or so, and eat it like a taco...unless there is someone else in the room, then I put it on a plate and eat it with a fork like a civilized person.

    weekday mornings I usually have scrambled eggs and beans with Hatch, NM green chiles.

    right now I'm eating a "Thai" porridge I invented...oats cooked in chicken stock, 1/2 tsp fish sauce, 1 tsp soy sauce, poached egg, sauteed mushrooms with ginger and jalapeno; all garnished with mung bean sprouts, cilantro, and green onions; finished with juice of 1/2 lime...sriracha to taste.

    It's awesome.

    While coffee is brewing I make a real omelette or real oatmeal or yoghurt with fruit, and also pack lunch for the day. Sometimes I think we're not as busy as e think we are.

    With the exception of travel for my job, I have made the same omelette for breakfast for TEN YEARS. LOL. And I always make time to eat breakfast. I pre-cook the turkey sausage and mushrooms so I only have to heat them up [in the omlette pan] then throw in the egg stuff:

    45g turkey sausage
    65g mushrooms
    1 large egg
    1/4 c southwestern egg beaters
    Spices= fire roasted tomatoes, sea salt & pepper

    1 slice 2% American cheese

    260 calories to start my day!

    I usually snicky-snack on the drive to work. A bowl of turkey, a little cheese, maybe some roast veggies or some other veggie I have on hand cooked earlier in the week. Or a hard boiled egg and some fruit. If I have any made up, these pumpkin, banana, apple, oatmeal protein bars are great grab-n-go snacks or meals. Scrambled egg muffins can be made in advance and frozen. Just pop in the microwave for about a minute to warm up. A couple hours after I get to work, I usually eat a bowl of plain greek yogurt mixed with some berries and a little granola.

    Whole grain bread with a tomato and feta cheese, it's delicious and fairly healthy. :)

    i dont know if i should even recommend my breakfast choices but they work for me! I work overnights, so I go to sleep around 10am, but the most active part of my shift starts around 6am so just before I'll either drink a small ice latte with skim milk and a scoop of slimfast or a Monster energy shake with 25 grams of protein. Either one gets me through the rest of my shift and I find I can still get to sleep when I get home!

    There is a really easy recipe for oatmeal cookies and banana pancakes.
    1. For oatmeal cookies, you mix bananas and oatmeal and shape them in circles
    2. For banana pancakes, you take one banana and 2 eggs, blend them in a blender and wha la. Pop them on a pan.
    3. Enjoy.
    (literally takes 2 minutes)
    Or... You can do just what I do and eat fage yogurt and Swiss cheese :D

    I have two breakfasts. The first one is 1 cup whole wheat bran + 1/2 cup almond milk and mixed berries. The second breakfast 1.5 hr later is 6 egg whites with .3 oz of crumbles blue cheese in a pan, placed on 2 slices of toasted Alpine Omega 3 12-grain bread and a tomato sliced up. And then I go to the gym because by then I have eaten enough to fuel my workout.

    I usually eat an english muffin- Thomas whole wheat and egg white omlette. Sometimes i eat a bagel thin with egg whites and chicken patty. It is my version of the egg mcmuffin- without all the junk that mikey D put into it.

    I put together dry oatmeal at home (oats, sugar, cinnamon, handful of mixed nuts, and some dried or fresh fruit), then just add water and toss it in the microwave when I get to work. I also keep a pack of english muffins, and bring some peanut butter, and a piece of fruit. Covers me for breakfast almost every day. Sometimes I will also make some pie dough, line a muffin tin and fill them with eggs and spinach. So it is basically bite sized (well 3-4 bites) quiches. Then you can either heat them up or eat them cold.

    Fiber one brownie and G2. Fiber one brownie because I need to fiber, and G2 because I hate the taste of water and that works for me. Plus, I can grab it on the way out the door and eat in the car if I'm running late!

    i alternate between 2 breakfasts at the moment - 2 days of 50grams oats + 20g protein powder + 1 tsp maca powder 200 ml almond milk + cinnamon - I dont soak overnight - I just bring to boil (then add teh powders!) and eat with either strawberries or apple or both or whatever fruit is there (150g ish) and 2 days of 3 eggs, homemade soda bread and a slice of cheese or cottage cheese piled on bread.

    both are yum. Sometimes I have them for dinner too.

    I'd get bored with just one type of breakfast, but the two I have most of is 1. 100g frozen fruit, nuked in microwave, 40g rolled oats and 150g low fat natural yoghurt. 2. 2 egg omelette with fresh herbs and greens, whatever's left in fridge,onion and tomato, and 20G low fat cheese.

    Used to have porridge with cinnamon , but I couldn't eat it without sugar or sweetener, and I've stopped both of those in my diet.
