Breakfast ideas

I make myself and egg white/1 egg omlet almost everyday. I put green peppers, red onion, 1 slice reduced cal cheese, and 1 slice lunch meat ham. Very fast and filling!

I am very busy in the morning as well and I love breakfast. I usually just do 2 pieces of double fiber toast with spray butter or a 2 egg sandwich on that same bread. Lately though I felt like I needed to change it up a bit and now I am totally addicted to my new fav breakfast/ snack. Get the new 80 per serving honey squares made by fiber one. I mix two servings of that and a yoplait light very vanilla yogurt. its kinda like a granola and yogurt mix. Even my skinny friends at work who eat horribly are loving this. Very simple a good for you. It also just about gets your fiber in for the day. LOVE IT!!!

P.S.- It is VERY filling!!

i like to poach a couple of eggs and put them on top of a couple of slices of 35 calorie bread toasted. Very tasty and does not take much time.

cream of wheat (they have a high fiber one) or old fashioned oat meal

Herbalife shakes for me. I am a huge b'fast fan, but like you I don't have time to make it. McDonalds was my chef for a while (I know - so bad). I found Herbalife and am completely amazed that it keeps me full till lunch. Occasionally I get the huger pains, but nothing like I used to when I skipped b'fast!

I have two favorites

1. vanilla, low fat yogurt 80 calories, 1/4 cup low fat granola 86 calories, and mix in some strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries 35 calories total 190 calories

2. light english muffin 100 calories, an egg 70 calories, 1/2 oz of deli select ham 20 calories, 1/2 oz of fat free sharp cheddar melted on egg 30 calories total 220 calories

those are my go to breakfasts

I have 3 that I interchange:

1) [Quick] Steel Cut Oats, 1 Tbsp. Almond Butter, Raisins, Cinnamon & Truvia (tastes like raisin/oatmeal cookie dough!)
2) 1 Hard-Boiled or Scrambled Egg, 2 slices wheat toast w/1 Tbsp Reduced Fat Peanut Butter
3) Yogurt, Berries & Bran Buds

I'm pressed for time in the a.m. too, so these are quick! By the time my coffee is done ~ breakfast is as well!

I keep a package of OatFit at work so, on those mornings I don't have it together, I have no excuse for missing a meal.

Quick and easy. Cut an apple in half. Use a teaspoon to pop out the seed area, then fill it with peanut butter. Sometimes I sprinkle it with cinnamon sugar. My kids like this, too, and the fiber+protein is a good way to start the day. Also, a single serving yogurt plus 1/2 banana and a handful of raw oats and sprinkle of slivered almonds makes a filling breakfast parfait.

Another: leftover hard boiled egg sliced onto toast. Or a small smear of peanut butter on toast plus sliced apple... Or a toasted English muffin with a slice of cheddar...

With slightly more time, 1/2 C leftover rice or quinoa, warmed with milk, then sprinkled with raisins and cinnamon. Hard fried egg on a corn tortilla/slice of toast.

I'm trying to do better abotu breakfast. Some days I eat, some days I skip (I know, shame on me) but I am more worried about getting my 7 yr old up, fed, and ready for school (when it starts) and then i have my 15 month old who doesn't let me eat, he tends to eat everything i have....and then when everything has settled down, its lunch time.....

I love these ideas, can't wait to see more

I need more quick and low calorie breakfast ideas.....

Personally I can eat breakfast anytime of day...

1) Oatmeal
(some of the packets are kinda high in sugar, but you can throw water and old-fashioned oats in a bowl the night before and nuke it in the morning to heat it through then you can add as little or as much brown sugar, honey, agave as you'd like to sweeten it up.
My sis adds wheat germ, dried cranberries and milk.. yum)

2) Soft-boiled or hard-boiled egg (less clean-up than scrambled) if you want jazz it up some turkey bacon is only 1-2 minutes in the microwave oven

3) Cottage cheese on Multi-grain toaster waffles (I use Trader Joe's) with fresh fruit

4) Natural Peanutbutter (PB ingredients should be only peanuts and salt) on Multi-grain toaster waffles or toast.

5) Cereal with fruit and milk (Cheerios, Cornflakes, something low sugar...)

6) Pancakes... okay this is more work but you can make a large batch ahead of time wrap them and freeze them so that you can pull out 1 or 2 or 3 (or however many you like) at a time and pop them in the toaster. You can do this with waffles to if you are ambitious. Look for an old 1930s or 1940s cookbook all the recipes had much less sugar in them.

7) Cream cheese (better yet, neufchatel) and smoked salmon on a toasted english muffin

Baked oatmeal- I eat baked oatmeal everyday for breakfast and I usually eat it cold. I make a big batch and it makes 8 servings and only 184 Calories.

Here's how I make it but you can adjust it to your liking . I've made this recipe with different types of fruit but this is my favorite

2 1/2 cups rolled oats
4 cups almond milk ( I use unsweetened only 35 Cal per cup)
2 eggs
3-4 small apples, cored and dice
1/2 cup raisins
1 tsp vanilla ectract
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ginger

Preheat oven to 350
Core and dice apples
Mix all ingredients and pore into a large glass baking dish.
Bake for 40, remove from oven and stir ,return to the oven and bake for an additional 10 mins.

Store in the sealed container in the refrigerator

I make in advance whole wheat blueberry pancakes and freeze them. Then I just pull one out heat it in the toaster and put some fresh raspberries and/or blackberries over it.

I know at kroger yuo can buy turkey sausage in throw them in the microwave for about 45 sec.

Skinnytaste.com has a great egg white egg nest recipe. If you make them ahead of time, it's so easy to just heat them up and go in the mornings throughout the week. The URL: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/06/hash-brown-egg-white-nests.html?m=1

these sound DELICIOUS! I'm definitely going to give them a try!

Bfast meal ideas:

-1 Sandwich thin spread with 1 laughing cow lite and topped with one microwaved Boca Burger + banana

or

-1/2 uncooked oatmeal with splenda and cinnamon, grate one apple into it. Put this in a tupperware container and pour boiling water over it. it'll "cook" in minutes and is a great hearty breakfast on the go.

OR

-I "second" the previous poster who said she loves to make-ahead breakfast burritos. Even easier using Jimmy Dean Turkey Sausage crumbles and Eggbeaters. Add mushrooms and onions or whatever, some salsa and cheese or laughing cow. YUM!
