Easy breakfast ideas, please

I started eating natural peanut butter on a whole wheat bagel thin, it keeps me full all morning.

Porridge with banana - yummmmmmyyyyyyyyy

I ussually do a poached egg on half an english muffin. A little bit of marinera sauce and some turkey / tofu bacon. I know it sounds "gourmet" - but this is seriously, other than bowling water, a 5 minute prep time meal.

I wrote about it in a blog post, not sure if you can see it if you're not friends with me, you should be able to though! Incase you can't here's a link to the picture:

I keep some spinach, smoked ham deli slices and onions handy. On days where I have an extra few minutes, I'll slice up some spinach and onion, dice some ham slices and toss it in with my scrambled eggs. 12 grain toast and 1 slice of cheese plus a piece of fruit. A very filling breakfast that keeps me revved up all day long.

I prepare steel cut oatmeal in a double batch every other day and refrigerate. That way all I have to do is throw it in the microwave in the morning, not wait 30 minutes for it to cook. The last 30 seconds or so of reheating, I throw in a handful of blueberries. Adds a lot of delicious sweetness with no added sugar and minimal calories. Sometimes I'll drizzle it with honey, add a sprinkle of cinnamon, and a few chopped walnuts. I have this with a medium sized banana, water, and coffee. I love it! And it keeps me really full all morning. I also don't have the urge to over eat later since I'm starting the day with complex carbs. If you haven't eaten steel cut oatmeal, it is a little different but after a few times, I loved it!

Well today i brought a yogurt, a piece of cheese, and a hard boiled egg. eggs are the best, just boil a few and keep them in the fridge and grab one on the way out the door. i dont have time for breakfast in the morning so usually i will have toast a peanut butter or fruit and yogurt and/or eggs.easy and delicious.

BUMB

I hate breakfast food but I think the first meal of the day should be high in protein and fiber. Today I had a burrito for breakfast, I stuffed a trader joe's low carb wrap (only 45 cal) with homemade chili some hot sauce and lettuce. The whole thing was only 158 cal. I'll have left overs, wraps, baked clams, WHATEVER. Don't feel limited to cereals, eggs, oatmeal and yogurt. I hate all those things. If you like them that's awesome. Personally, I prefer a turkey sandwich

Morningstar Farms veggie sausage on a whole wheat english muffin. You can add cheese and / or egg if you want to spend the calories. It tastes better than real sausage and has 75% less fat.

real easy. you can microwave an egg or scrambled eggs. season it. place on healthy bagel, bread or tortilla, a little salsa or ketchup. maybe microwave a piece of turkey bacon.
easy, filling, and yummy

my favs..........

- multi-grain waffle with peanut butter
- skillet scramble with veggies. whatever veggies i have on hand, dump into skillet with some eggs. make a scramble or fritatta.
- fruit with yogurt
- yogurt with granola
- french toast with wheat bread and bananas and sugar free syrup
- oh, and put the scramble into a tortilla. this is very filling!

I toast a whole wheat english muffin and make myself a homemade egg mcmuffin. Add a poached egg, slice of american cheese and a slice of turkey bacon. Since I keep turkey bacon cooked and in the freezer, it is really quick and easy prep! And it is quite yummy!

Along those lines, I sometimes make a homemade McGriddle. (I need to get back to the store to keep making these).
This is just a copy and paste from a previous post of mine:

De Wafelbakkers have great pancakes. (http://www.dewafelbakkers.com/pancakes.html). I've tried the Maple ones and the A+ Cinnamon Sweet Potato ones. The Maples ones taste great and work well if you want to make something like a McGriddle, but the ones that come in the box are healthier - they contain more PROTEIN and FIBER and can usually be found with the natural and orgainc stuff. I ADORE ADORE ADORE the Sweet Potato ones, but nutritionally speaking, the Whole Wheat or Flaxseed ones are your best bet. I'll let you be the judge...

Anyways, pop two pancakes in the toaster. Fry or scramble one egg (with yolk) or two/three/more egg whites. Add cheese. (Personally, I prefer a half a slice of sharp cheddar - when it comes to cheese I try to eat strong ones; you eat less of it). Cook up a turkey sausage patty, sausage crumbles, turkey/pork bacon, whatever you want without going overboard. Sometimes I add jalapenos or red peppers or avocado. This makes a friggin awesome breakfast sandwich!!!! Tastes great and it's guilt free.

Use cooking spray - no oils when cooking the eggs and meat. Bacon can be popped in the microwave too.

I make a homemade Egg McMuffin similary to above, the only difference is I keep boiled eggs in the fridge, I peel and slice one on top of a toasted English Muffin, add 1/2 to whole slice of cheese, microwave it to melt cheese and warm up egg...that's it! Sometimes I add bacon but rarely since this is pretty filling.

One other quickie for breakfast or snack is spread a tablespoon of peanut butter on a caramel rice cake, slice 1/2 of a banana on top. If you want to make it more of a dessert, drizzle 1-2 teaspoons of caramel ice cream topping on it.

I usually do some type of microwave egg sandwich - I've been using peppers and onions but you can really use anything!

1 Whole wheat or "light" whole wheat English muffin
1-2 slices of fat free American cheese (I use the 25 calorie kind)
1/4 cup chopped peppers
1/4 cup chopped onions (pre-chop the peppers and onions on Sunday and keep it in a container)
3 egg whites (you can sub Egg Beaters or whatever)

Split the English muffin and lay the cheese on one or both sides and toast to desired crispiness. While muffin is toasting, take a large mug (a small one won't contain the eggs when they expand) and crack the 3 egg whites into it then beat them like they've misbehaved real bad. Gently mix in the peppers and onions cause you love them - they enhance your breakfast and are yummy. Pop that mug in the microwave and heat about 2:30 or until it's done to your liking.
Then you can just make a little sammich and wrap it in foil to go or eat it then!

I'm pressed for time in the AM because a) I'm lazy and I snooze a lot and b) I have to be at work at 7 AM. Soon as I wake up I pop a whole wheat English muffin in the toaster with 1-2 slices of fat free American cheese. Then I microwave eggs and hop in the shower, put it together in a sandwich before I run out the door - plus I've managed to hoard ketchup packets at work and I have some hot sauce there so I'm good to go. If you don't, you can always buy little souffle cups from amazon.com (usually advertised as jello shot or plastic shot glasses - just make sure they come with lids!). I get the 1 oz ones cause that's 2 tbsp and then I can use it for salad dressing too. 250 of them were $13 - lasts forever. Just have to search a little to find a smaller quantity.

www.hungry-girl.com has lots of these listed but those are usually pretty complex
