    Breakfast is gross.

    I have a protein shake if I'm working out. When I get to my office, I have a cheese stick, banana, and 2 Brazil nuts for my underactive thyroid.

    Depending on how hungry I am, I keep pears in the fridge and protein bars in my desk.

    I'm not a huge breakfast person either but I've noticed I'm getting better at it haha. I usually go with:

    - small tortilla with 2 scrambled eggs (sometimes I thrown a bit of greek yogurt while I scramble), 1/8 cup of cheese, and either sausage or ham. I have a thing for breakfast burritos right now but I need to go shopping so I'm eating what I have lol

    - 5 oz plain greek yogurt with a little fruit and honey, sometimes I'll add pecans

    - 1 egg over easy, a slice of cheese on a high fiber english muffin with a bit of butter and some fruit on the side

    1 slice toasted oatmeal bread (it's large bread) topped with 28g goat milk brie, 2 eggs scrambled with some broccoli slaw cooked in and some hot sauce.

    Sounds small but turns out pretty big. I do best when I start my day with a well rounded macros meal. I eat less and later in the morning than I used to so it's almost becoming an early lunch a lot of days.

    Whoever mentioned teff...thanks! I haven't had that for some time and I really need to get some.

    That sounds good but I would need to modify it just a little. Salsa is to high in sodium and potassium si I would have to eliminate that. I could maybe use just a tiny bit of chicken because there is protein in the egg and I need to limit protein but it sounds workable! Anyway you can post that casserole recipe?

    I make my own salsa so it's not high in sodium. As far as a recipe, what I do is roast two trays of vegetables (zucchini, yellow squash, asparagus, cauliflower, etc.) at 425 until nicely browned. Spray a large pyrex and add the vegetables and mix in fresh spinach. I add egg whites just to cover and bake at 350 for 35 minutes or until set.

    Cranberry juice with an emergen-c packet. 1 banana with almond butter. Skinnypop popcorn.

    Usually I'll have 2 servings of rice with something added to it.

    Over the weekend, I made freezer breakfast sandwiches of a whole wheat english muffin, one egg, one slice of cheese and 2 1/2 slices of Canadian bacon (I just divided up the entire package among the 6 sandwiches). Then I individually wrapped them and stuck them in the freezer. I had one for breakfast yesterday morning. They come out to 300 calories and 20 grams of protein each. Perfect for before my early morning gym workout!
    This morning I had two whole grain waffles, two tablespoons of PB2, and a tablespoon of strawberry jam. They didn't keep me quite as full as the breakfast sandwich did, but it was a good option to change it up.

    We are exact opposites, breakfast is the one meal that I totally live for! It is generally the same foods every day (with occasional variances in flavors), and once I wake up I can't wait to get started.

    Something I shouldn't have! LOL

    I had an Udi's Gluten Free bagel with homemade mayo, Applegate Turkey, Raw Milk Baby Swiss and some spinach along with my iced coffee with Raw Milk. It was a pretty big calorie hit for me in the morning.

    I'm always amazed that people can skip breakfast, I'm hungry AF in the morning. My favorite breakfast is about 125 grams of shredded pan fried sweet potatoes with 4 oz lean ground turkey cooked in a little bit of chopped chipolte peppers in adobo sauce, three scrambled eggs and salsa. I could eat it every single day.

    Nothing. My first meal was split pea and chicken soup, and pan fried brussel sprouts, but I didn't eat it until 1:30 p.m. so I don't really consider it breakfast.

    I have 0% fat yogurt with a few tbsp's of Vector Protein Granola (almond cranberry)

    Try this overnight steel cut oatmeal recipes, it's great. I'd advise just using water instead of juice though, I found it too sweet. fivehearthome.com/2015/10/26/overnight-slow-cooker-apple-pie-steel-cut-oatmeal-recipe-no-burnt-edges/

    A slice of bread, with a light spread of peanut butter with half a banana sliced on top.

    I try to incorporate some protein + carbs. It seems to keep me fuller longer.

    Good luck!

    Also remember. Don't be afraid to go outside of the standard breakfast foods. Sometimes I eat chicken and veggies for breakfast. Lol.

    I just had water and a banana. I used to have porridge but since going vegan, my appetite seems to have decreased so I don't really feel hungry in the mornings.
