Easy to make breakfast high in protein

Eggs. Eggs are the perfect food. Boiled and scrambled are probably the easiest to teach yourself to make. Add new methods to your repertoire with time.

Almond butter in your smoothie with some protein powder.

Quinoa is easy. This would be simple and high in protein, but you might want to leave out the sugar. http://www.ksdk.com/story/entertainment/television/show-me-st-louis/2016/01/04/dairy-council/78258844/

YouTube is a great place to learn how to do some simple cooking techniques. You'll be a pro in no time with practice.

I try to keep it super simple, I mostly eat fruits and veggies during work any way so there's hardly any prep work involved. Things I make usually include:
Cottage cheese and fruit
peanut butter and banana or apple
greek yogurt and honey or fruit
hard boiled eggs

Also if you like to BBQ make lots of chicken, lean sausages, turkey burgers once a week and then you have it during the week for meals and snacks.

I will cook off Soyrizo, reserve it in the fridge to add to meals for flavor and additional protein. One of my favorite breakfast is soyrizo, with the addition high protein tofu diced, scrambled with 1 whole shell egg (fresh) and 1/2 cup of prepared liquid egg product.
The shell egg keeps the "scramble" from sticking to the pan. Use a splash of olive oil or pan spray too

These quinoa spinach cakes from Skinnytatse.com are easy to make and so delicious. Served with an egg on top, they have a great deal of protein. I make a double batch and freeze them.

For me, breakfast is the easiest way to get protein. Omelets, shake with milk, fruit and protein powder or a simple protein bar and piece of fruit when in a hurry.

@dvis334 My go to is always eggs & egg whites (when I have a skillet handy) When I'm on the go I drink a Premier Protein drink from Costco (they are amazing) -160cal, 30g protein-

Here is one of my favorite breakfasts -

Mix 5 egg whites with 1/2 C cottage cheese - season with salt and pepper - set aside

melt 10g butter in a non stick skillet. Add 2 cups raw spinach. Season with salt and pepper.

pour egg and cottage cheese mixture over spinach

cover and cook on medium high for 5 minutes, do not stir! It is done when the eggs are no longer liquid.

The butter will caramelize the spinach nicely, and it will be golden brown in some spots. I will change up the seasoning to my mood, sometimes I'll add garlic, sometimes I'll use Cajun seasoning. Eat plain or top with salsa or avocados.
