    Greek yogurt most mornings. This morning I had French toast. Sometimes I switch things up and have a couple of eggs on toast.

    I do tea for breakfast, but hubby usually has 3 eggs with 300g of mixed veggies (usually mushrooms, peppers, and onions) topped with cheese and 3 pieces of thick-sliced bacon. Usually ends up 700-800 calories, around 12g net carbs and 45-50g protein.

    I cook every morning, so I can take a pic tomorrow, if you like.

    Normally I just have a protein bar. Sometimes I'll make a late breakfast of zoats (oats bulked up with shredded zucchini). These are a few of mine:

    Pumpkin

    I just cooked up 8 eggs to make 6 breakfast burritos to have in the fridge, ready to go for the next few days. 3 for me and 3 for my husband.
    I only did eggs and cheese in mine (224 cals per burrito). Hubby has left over chicken fajita's with veggies in with his eggs.

    I don't photograph my food and it's not always pretty, but I like fruit and granola. Sometimes I have eggs, cereal or whatever, but usually it's fruit and granola. :)

    Half an avocado spread on toast with a little salt and pepper is yummy and satisfying! Can vary it with adding tomatoes or topping with poached egg.....I have pics but phone app doesn't show function to add photos....I will try and add from computer tmrw

    I do a lot of cold oats and coffee. You use equal parts milk and oats, add toppings, and keep in the fridge for 8 or more hours. I like them for busy weeks when I just have to grab something from the fridge and go. My favorite is cocoa, pb2, and banana. I add 1/2 tsp sugar, but I don't know if it would be necessary if I mashed the banana instead of slicing it. A couple tsp of no sugar added jam or fruit preserves and pb2 is pretty good too (like a PB and J). I wasn't crazy about pumpkin pecan, but my kid devoured them. I could always use ideas for different combinations or non-oat things to grab from the fridge and go in the morning.

    Musli with fruit and milk. A little carb heavy, but good fibre. 600-700calories depending on the fruit.
    1/4 cup each of rolled oats and buckwheat, tablespoon each of chia and sunflower seeds, 2/3 cup milk, today I had a banana AND a small mango (indulgent, mmnn)

    I always have two eggs. When I either find veggies for a good price at the store, or have lots of garden veggies, I add those. Right now I am working through 5 gallons of bell peppers from my garden, lol. But if I don't have any veggies, have a piece of toast with the eggs.

    I sauté the veggiesin a half teaspoon of olive oil, then add the eggs halfway through. If I am doing toast, I start the eggs, then warm the toast in the pan next to the eggs.

    It's very filling, and I like getting in a serving of veggies first thing.

    5.3oz of plain nonfat Greek yogurt mixed with 16g of peanut butter and 6g PB2. I top it with either peanuts/walnuts/diced pecans/sunflower seeds/pumpkin seeds and have a portion of fruit and black coffee with it (typically 100-200g of an apple). Depending on the size of the apple, it's about 300-380 calories.

    @arditarose:That pumpkin zoatmeal looks amazing. Would finely shredded carrots also work?

    Really more like brunch/lunch for me, but that's when I "break my fast". Coffee and water in the mornings. Also, that is center cut bacon.

    Weekdays I usually have oatmeal or leftovers. On the weekends lately I've been enjoying a huge plate of roasted veggies with some form of protein (canned fish or eggs). This morning I had roasted veggies (brussel's sprouts, broccoli, mushrooms, peppers), some leftover roast potato, and a baked Italian egg (tomato sauce, parmesan, an egg, bake in the oven).

    This is also one of my breakfast staples, it's delicious and filling for me. I add broccoli too.

    this morning i had scrambled eggs with NM green chile, oats, blueberries, and a low sodium V8.
  • I'm not as hungry during the day and ravenous at night, so I usually have a very small breakfast. Some fruit, and sometimes a bit of protein added in. Today I had a clementine and a string cheese.

    Today I had 7 oz Fage 2% greek yogurt with a cup of mixed frozen berries, water, and coffee with 1% milk.

    Something I love to make, but I'm out of almond milk.

    4 cups of vanilla almond milk
    1 cup of brown rice
    real maple syrup
    vanilla
    cinnamon

    Combine all ingredients, bring to a boil, let simmer for 45 minutes to an hour until the rice is cooked. Add a couple chopped apples the last 15 minutes and some real apple cider if it needs more liquid (you don't need cider, but if you have it). My 16 year old loves this breakfast, she calls it fall in a bowl and the house smells divine. You can also do this in a crockpot but the texture of the rice gets a little different.

    Another delicious make ahead breakfast.

    peeled and chopped sweet potatoes cooked with half a yellow onion in olive oil until the potatoes are cooked, it takes a while, add turkey bacon (I cut into 1 inch pieces) and cook a few minutes longer so the flavors can blend. I portion this into 1 cup servings and put it in the fridge. I love this breakfast with egg scrambled egg whites mixed in.

    I always make some kind of crustless quiche to heat and eat all week. This week is cabbage/bacon and it's my favorite one - 144 calories per 1/4 of the pan.

    2 egg veggie omelette, with onions peppers tomatoes and mushrooms but NO cheese. A little hot sauce mixed in with some ketchup- under 200 calories and really satisfies until lunch!
  • On weekdays, since I eat breakfast at work: granola, greek yogurt, banana, coffee. On weekends, usually scrambled eggs with veggies (spinach, tomato) and a little cheese, add in chicken sausage or some leftover meat from dinners that week, plus my usual banana and coffee.
