    I'm surprised people leave oatmeal overnight when it literally takes 5 minutes to make oatmeal!

    Oatmeal with honey and ground linseeds is my favourite, or with blueberry and bananas instead. Amazingly low calorie, but with so much fiber I have so much energy that I don't need snacks until lunch time!

    I had a piece of Pizza Hut meat lovers pizza with peanut butter on it, for breakfast. Definitely a "must try" :wink:

    There are two versions of over night oats and one involves steel cut oat which take 20-25 minutes to cook, so if you can have it ready in the morning ready to heat up then it saves time. Also the other reason for overnight oats is that some people want it in the warmer months and don't want a hot meal.

    I normally have, Greek yogurt, frozen blueberries & frozen raspberries with just a little granola sprinkled on top for crunch. if you mix it all up and wait a couple of minutes the frozen fruit softens enough to eat whilst at the same time it freezes the yoghurt a little

    <Shudder!> Swap the banana for smoked salmon and that would be heavenly.


    Here's an alternative to your experiment to take individually nice ingredients and combine into something nasty....
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fool's_Gold_Loaf

    "The sandwich consists of a single warmed, hollowed-out loaf of bread filled with the contents of one jar of creamy peanut butter and one jar of grape jelly and a pound of bacon. "

    c. 8000 calories so you might want to share!

    Banana french toast? http://www.foodblogs.com/skinnytaste/2011/04/20/bananas-fosters-topped-overnight-french-toast

    I like (grainy) waffles smeared with peanut butter, or you could top it with cottage cheese & fruit.

    I love oatmeal (not overnight though). I make it with milk (protein) and add chopped nuts and brown sugar w/ cinnamon. Banana oatmeal would be good.

    I Have what may seem like a stupid question. As I'm a virgin to all of this. Trying to get my husband's diabetes under control and for both of us to lose weight. I see that you put Brown Sugar in your Oatmeal. I LOVE IT LIKE THAT. Is Brown Sugar less carbs than Regular sugar?
    Thank you
    Brenda

    Breakfast cookie? http://www.skinnytaste.com/chewy-chocolate-chip-oatmeal-breakfast/

    My quick go to is a Greek yogurt "parfait." Greek yogurt, high fiber cereal, berries & nuts.

    I make a savoury breakfast casserole on Sundays and it lasts me the whole week.
    2 cups egg whites
    1 cup greek yogurt or cottage cheese
    300 - 500 grams of spinach (I usually buy it frozen and let it thaw the night before)
    ~ 2 cups cooked quinoa (I used 1 cup dry with 2 cups of water)
    Spices to taste (I usually use a touch of salt and some garlic)

    Mix it all up, pour into a baking pan and cook at 350 for about 40 minutes.
    I get 8 nice-sized slices out of it that are about 120 calories each with 13 g protein.

    I usually top each piece with 20g of almonds for a bit of a crunch.
    It's super easy and lasts in the fridge well.

    Hi Brenda, I thought I'd chime in on your question because this was something I was curious about a little while ago as well. Brown sugar is simply white sugar with added molasses. The molasses adds a few nutrients, but they are so few that there really is very little difference between the two. And the carb count is the same.

    There are some low calorie and low carb syrups on the market, and they do taste okay, but they're pretty full of heavily-processed ingredients.

    Buckwheat pancakes! They're so yummy. And the protein in them is higher than regular pancake mix.

    Protein pancakes. I made these yesterday for the first time. Butter & sugar makes everything taste good. On the positive side these are only 4 ingredients & almost 30 grams of protein.

    A little ground turkey scrambled into eggs makes things nice and filling.
    Avocado on toast with egg on top is way better than banana! :D
    I just picked up the power cakes mix and a 1/2 cup waffle or pancake made with water is under 200 cals and can be dressed up with whatever else your macros desire.
