Breakfast ideas wanted!!

What do you like to have for lunch and dinner? You can have those things for breakfast as well. You don't have to choose "breakfast foods."

But if you want traditional breakfast foods, lots of people like oatmeal. Or if you only like eggs with toast, then have some eggs and toast.

Why can't you have toast with your eggs?

That is what I was going to ask? Are you allergic to wheat? If not, nothing wrong with bread, just make it 100% whole grain so it will be high in fiber and more filling. Also, don't think you have to eat 'breakfast' foods for breakfast, eat whatever you want. I tend to eat egg sandwiches and peanut butter toast a lot but sometimes I just eat leftovers or whatever I can throw together. Greek yogurt, nuts, string cheese, luna bars, hard boiled eggs are common simple food for me to grab to bring to work. I like to make egg casseroles and oatmeal bakes to have quick warmups too.

Made my mouth water though

I usually pair scrambled eggs with either a few slices of avocado or a few pieces of some breakfast meat. This much protein will push me through lunch so I really don't get that hungry until dinner time. You could also do yogurt. I don't like the texture of regular yogurt but I will eat the "whips".

I like to make omelettes in silicone muffin tins. I usually do half eggs/half egg whites, lowfat cheese, some sort of vegetable. You can add sausage, ham, turkey, etc for some extra protein. Ellie Krieger has a recipe for western omelette muffins in her You Have It Made cookbook.

You can customize with whatever you want. I like to use silicone tins to get them out. I never had much luck with the metal tins.

I sautée spinach and onions in a little coconut oil and then scramble a couple of eggs. I dump it on a plate and put some tomato-basil feta cheese on top. Sooooo good!

Scrambled eggs, ground pork sausage, peppers, onions and a bit of cheddar wrapped in a flour tortilla shell. These are easy to freeze and reheat in a microwave for a quick breakfast in the morning. I would also recommend a mix of cottage cheese, flavored greek yogurt and lemon juice, but you don't like fruit so probably won't enjoy most flavored greek yogurts.

hi if you join weight watchers it tells you what to eat, theres a smart point allowance and fit points, its great

great ideas, thanks helped me!

Try and stop looking at meals in the traditional way and think of them all as meals where you can eat anything you want (within your calories).

I sometimes make my own homemade 'egg mcmuffin'. Pre-preparing the night before, I'll slice my english muffin and wrap it, cut a slice of turkey bacon in two and wrap it in foil, and put the slice of cheese in the bag too. In the morning before I leave, I'll do my egg. I'll crack one egg and one egg white in a coffee mug, pierce the yolk with a fork so it doesn't explode, and microwave it for a couple of minutes. It comes out perfect and round like mcdonald's. IT cooks from the outside in so if the inside is still runny just put it for 30 more seconds. Then I"ll put the egg patty in a sandwich container and throw that in the lunch bag too. At work the final assembly is toasting the english muffin, and microwaving the turkey bacon and egg, then assembling the sandwich. Yummy and lots of protein with the extra egg white added.
