I'm in a bit of a breakfast rut. I usually bring my breakfast to work and eat at my desk. Looking for some new, semi-portable breakfast ideas.

    I have a protein shake every morning... great for the portable breakfast.

    Chocolate whey protein
    PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter
    Unsweetened Almond Milk
    A handful of baby spinach
    A handful of kale
    Ice cubes... blend... bendy straw ;)

    Trader Joes makes pre-cooked, frozen steel cut oatmeal that is just slightly sweetened. It's 150 for a decent sized serving. I have that most work days with a hard boiled egg and a big glass of water with crystal light in it.

    Three whole eggs and black coffee. Usually tides me over for a few hours.

    clearly the bendy straw is the most import ingredient :)

    Either overnight oats (oats, milk, berries, protein powder) and milk with coffee or 2-3 eggs, toast, veggies, and milk with coffee. On Saturday I add bacon.

    Hard boiled egg, one piece of rye toast and greek yogurt. Always satisfies me until lunch. I bring it to work and toast the bread there.

    On weekends I make egg, red pepper, onions, spinach and low fat cream cheese muffins and freeze for quick breakfast. I also make a frittata with vegetables, meat and eggs plus cheese. I alternate with oatmeal or muesli and fresh berries with almond milk.

    I go back and forth between some kind of frittata/egg muffin/egg bake, or hard boiled eggs/deviled eggs.

    Right now I usually have an egg with three egg whites scrambled with some veggies or spinach greens and a serving of Coach's Oats with a Tbsp of natural peanut butter and a low sodium V8.

    I normally make my own sushi or buy it on my way to school. Or I have peanut-butter oat cookies (basically just peanut butter and oats, baked) and 1.5 cups low fat milk. Or sometimes I have oatmeal with bananas and frozen mango. Oats are a really big thing for me, so I sort of stick to those. Sushi is also fantastic, but I try not to have soy sauce with it because that amount of sodium first thing in the morning isn't good for anyone.

    I'm really not hungry in the morning and for most of my life, I've been a non-breakfast eater, but now I try to eat a little something when I get to work - a hard boiled egg, a banana, or a packet of instant oatmeal.

    Now that I've discovered PB2 I think it's my favorite thing in the whole entire world and I'm going to try something like @danacondah's shake tomorrow. Sans bendy straw.

    Anyone have any suggestion for a whole food or raw food breakfast that I balanced with protein and fat for 1200-1300 cal intake. I am hoping to lose weight again and somehow keep my hormones balanced.

    2 Eggo Cinnamon waffles, Diet Coke and my multi-vitamin. Boring but it's quick to eat while getting my monkeys ready for school and it satisfies me.

    My go to is a mix of Muesli/Granola and low fat greek yoghurt. Does the trick until lunchtime, although I like to eat it within 5 minutes of mixing as it goes from crispy/crunchy to soft.

    3 oz of egg whites microwaved 2 mins. And a protein shake..I make them the night before and they usually include a yogurt mixed in.I add the powder right before I drink it.

    Ohhh :D I've discovered crock pot oatmeat! I cut up apples, use half steel cut, half regular oatmeal, cinnamon and brown sugar. The recipe calls for milk and eggs, and my husband LOVES it like that,,I made mine with lf soymilk and egg white.
    it's my new favorite pre-work breakfast

    A little unusual breakfast for me, but I have it everyday, a good way to get protein and fiber early every morning. I have a serving of all bran cereal with protein shake (ON chocolate) instead of milk

    I've been going with 1 cup of Greek yogurt (1/2 plain 0% & 1/2 vanilla 2%) and 1/2 cup of frozen blueberries or raspberries. I eat it on the bus on my way to school.

    low fat greek yogurt and a small banana is great fuel first thing in the morning :) or an apple with almond butter and healthy life 35 calorie toasted bread (that bread is a life saver for me, I LOVE toast)
    I try to do a protein, fruit, whole grain, and a healthy fat first thing in the morning, but any two of those things is good. I do a super light first breakfast like that, and then after workouts, I'll fix a bigger protein, like a
    1 whole egg, 3 egg white omelette, with tomato and spinach instead of cheese, and piece of light toast,,with milk and coffee.
    Everyone's schedule is different but I seem to do better with 2 breakfasts!haha, no snack..a lunch, dinner and then a light snack an hour or 2 before bed. I think eating often helps balance me :D

    Two eggs, a cup of steel cut oatmeal, and a protein shake. Oh and the most important thing of all, coffee!!!!

    Poached eggs on toast are 100% my fav but that's not really a "semi portable" sooooo a pot of total 0% with a banana in it and some blueberries and a tiny pot of honey!

    My husband uses a rice maker to make us Oatmeal with a chopped apple in it each morning. (Actually some days, plain oatmeal with fresh berries after cooked).
