    I've been having oatmeal or cereal mixed with protein powder and a small amount of peanut butter or mashed banana if I feel like it - hot water poured over the whole thing. It's honestly mostly since I don't have all that much variety available at the moment but I'm happy with the result. Very quick, easy, and filling as well- warm too which is good for the season. Just make sure you don't put in too much hot water though or it can get rather less tasty.

    I normally have porridge:
    50g Oats
    250ml Unsweetened Almond Milk
    149 calories!

    Today however I had a 3 egg omelette with bacon and mushrooms

    2 egg omelette with ham, cheese and spinach - quick and delicious!
    Although today it was greek yoghurt with raspberries which was yummy but much less satisfying!

    Pasture-raised eggs! More expensive (sadly!) but UN-believably tasty, creamy and buttery, intensely orange yolks...WELL worth it! And uncured dry-rubbed pastured pork bacon...a completely different experience from supermarket bacon! Again, more expensive, but worth every penny. Part of my reward to myself for having quit smoking in October...the money I am saving on cigarettes I spend on better-quality food.

    Congrats on quitting! :)

    I just had a bacon/egg/cheese sandwich and a package of hostess donuts.

    I do a "Eat whatever I want" day about once a month, and this is it. I almost always stay within my calorie goals though.

    I was in a hurry today, so had leftover chicken breast (cooked with bones and skin), a pear, and half an avocado.

    Kale sauteed with bacon and apple cider vinegar, top with a couple of poached eggs. Crushed red pepper. Green tea. That's my fave.

    Weekday breakfasts are usuallyblack coffee and one of the following:
    Protein bar and piece of fruit
    Protein shake (whey protein powder, 2% milk, banana and peanut butter of dash of cinnamon depending on the flavor of the powder)
    Hot buckwheat cereal with 1 Tbsp maple syrup and whatever fruit and nuts I have on hand
    Gluten free frozen waffle with PB and banana

    On the weekends I generally make use of whatever I have in the fridge along side some eggs

    This morning I had a Banana protein shake made with almond milk. I normally rotate between that and a homemade "sausage mcmuffin" Low carb English muffin, turkey sausage and laughing cow cheese.

    I usually have a four egg omelette that I do in the microwave and put a bunch of green chile on that and a little cheese with a side of oats and slivered almonds.

    Breakfast TOTALLY depends for me. Sometimes it's a couple of cookies. Sometimes it's nothing. This morning I woke up STARVING, so I made some avacado toast. I also had some leftover vegan baked beans, and they sounded good, too, so I heated a bit of those up. Then I realized the the beans on the toast would be delicious. I was not wrong!

    Don't normally eat breakfast unless I'm hungry. For me one jumbo whole egg and 1/2 cup of egg whites "fried" in a pan with non-stick cooking spray keeps me full for quite awhile and it's only 150 calories. It's like a GIANT fried egg.

    I usually have a spinach omelet - 1 egg and 6 ounces egg white (it's huge LOL), an apple and a low sodium v8 juice. This is usually very filling.

    I started keeping chickens 2 years ago and can absolutely vouch for how much more amazing their eggs are compared to regular store bought. Farmer's Market prices here are $7-8 a dozen for backyard chicken eggs, and my friends and circle of people happily buy them from me when I have an excess.

    We have laying hens and I love how amazing the eggs taste. :) We sell them for $5 a dozen and can't even keep up with demand.
