    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.

    I would love this recipe if possible!

    I promised my doctor I'd eat oatmeal every day till January, so get that over with during breakfast. Last Friday, out of curiosity, I bought a jar of PB2. Saturday, with great trepidation, I added a tablespoon of it to my morning oatmeal, while it was cooking up. And it wasn't bad at all! So I did it again on Sunday (Monday - Friday, I have breakfast at work so I can't really play).

    I have been trying to adopt a DASH/plant-based diet so I have been doing the green smoothie every morning after a 3 mile walk. I make it with with 6 oz coconut water, 1 tablespoon chia seeds (soaked 5-10 minutes), 3-4 cups kale (or spinach), ~2 cups fresh fruit I freeze (1/2 banana plus 1/2 cup each: apple, pineapple, mango). I also add a tablespoon of organic unsweetened coconut flakes. Yum!!!

    Once in a while breakfast is hot oatmeal: I go for 1/4 cup steel-cut oats cooked in almond milk and topped with a few chopped apple bits and Stevia. It makes a ~3/4 cup portion.

    I am very, very boring. In the warmer weather, my breakfast (eaten around 11:00) is usually cottage cheese with pumpkin and nuts or cottage cheese with chopped veggies topped with sriracha. Once it gets colder, I like oatmeal with pumpkin and protein powder.

    This may sound like a daft question, but we don't really 'do' pumpkin in the UK: I have some tinned pumpkin (I give it to my dog, but it's regular Libby's pumpkin). How much should I put into my oatmeal?

    ETA: I mean for taste, I don't expect anyone to work out my calories LOL!

    On mornings where I exercise, I have milk with protein powder. On mornings where I don't exercise, usually a serving of cottage cheese with either a banana or a Greek yogurt.

    Sure! Sauté and crisp 4 slices of chopped center cut bacon. Put aside, reserve the fat. Sauté 8oz of sliced cabbage in the bacon fat until soft. In a separate bowl beat 4 eggs, 4 egg whites (3/4 cup liquid egg whites), 1/4 cup skim milk, salt and pepper. Put your cabbage in a parchment lined cake pan, pour in your egg mixture, top with crumbled bacon and sliced scallions. Bake at 400 for about 20-25 mins until set.

    You can switch up the ingredients, but we like this one and BLT the best.

    In the morning before work I just take my 1/4 wedge, slice it in half and warm it in the microwave for 2 minutes.

    I use 120 grams to 40 grams of oats. Stir it in and heat through. Add some cinnamon and allspice.

    I had a spicy beef enchilada from Lean Cuisine.... it was filling and delicious! I tend to not eat traditional foods for breakfast.

    I don't vary a lot because I find it easier to track and maintain.

    So...

    Bagel with cream cheese - 450 calories
    Oatmeal with a bit of butter, brown sugar and maple syrup - 300 calories
    Yogurt with granola in cottage cheese - 510 calories

    Do breakfast burritos often too with simple eggs, cheese, and ham, bacon, or chorizo - 450 to 600 calories

    Most days I eat jasmine rice topped with turkey bacon, 1 egg, green onions and gluten free soy sauce. I change it up sometimes, gluten free cereal with almond milk, 2 egg omelet with bacon, avocado, tomato and salsa verde with skillet potatoes, usually using up whatever leftovers I have around. Breakfast tacos are a favorite too, with corn tortillas, retried beans, egg, potatoes, veggies, whatever's around and needs to be used up. This morning I had a Pamela's blueberry lemon whenever bar and coffee when I had to rush out the door.

    Some of you sure can make nice looking food.

    I eat the same thing most days and it is my one meal that is around 1300 calories to start my day.

    For starters I have 1/2 cup of organic unsweetened coconut flakes and 15-20 almonds.

    Then I move to coffee which is coffee, 100% cacao, 5 tablespoons of organic unrefined coconut oil, 2 oz. of Heavy Whipping cream and about a .25 to .5 teaspoon of shilajit for flavor and trace minerals.

    I have one boiled egg with the coffee and I take my krill oil, Vitamin D3, Vitamin K2 with the coffee since it is high in fat.

    Then I have a cup of green tea with 4 8" long pieces of celery.
