      Frozen burritos (Sweet Earth makes some I like), overnight oats, protein shakes (I have a Blender Bottle, so I'll put everything in and then shake it up right before I drink it).

      I pre-cook a big batch of steel cut oats in the crock pot (half water, half milk). Then I warm a serving up at work. I rotate toppings. This week is cinnamon, brown sugar and walnuts. Next week might be pumpkin, cinnamon and sugar or PB2 and maple syrup.

      Burrito with ground turkey, egg, spinach, rotel tomatoes, black beans, and cheese. Typically prep them on weekends and freeze.

      I batch make breakfast sandwiches and freeze them. I usually bring one of these to work. I have access to a microwave to heat them.

      I do an egg McMuffin style sandwich - bake 9 eggs + 9 egg whites in a 9" square pan. Cool & cut into squares. Then store in the freezer with a slice of Canadian bacon. I take a ziplock bag out of the freezer and pack a high fiber English muffin and 2% cheese slice. Warm egg square in microwave (on med-low) while toasting the English muffin, slap on cheese slice & yum.

      I've been meaning to try this one:

      Coffee. Trying to see if skipping eating breakfast will help me drop this last 6lbs by creating extra deficit.

      I typically make my breakfast sandwich (3 fried eggs and 1 slice of cheese on lightly buttered toast) before work and eat it when I get there, about 25-30 minutes later.

      Special K has a frozen crustless quiche...2 mins in microwave and it's done. Very yummy and filling. I usually have with a piece of whole wheat toast.

      I like to have Scotch eggs--make up about half a dozen, have one for "quality control" and the rest for breakfast through the week. Just zap for 30 seconds or so and they're ready to eat.

      I used a recipe for protein waffles and made icing with vanilla protein powder and milk and dip em in it! They were good cold but I imagine would be even better warmed up for a few seconds :)

      Recipe is called "healthy cinnamon roll waffles" on Bigmansworld recipes

      I rotate between 2 soft boiled eggs and mandarin oranges, grapes or sliced apples. I may have sausage and cheese egg muffins or oatmeal with fruit.

      Before work I have eggs and egg whites. Sometimes fried. Sometimes scrambled with vegetables. Sometimes hard boiled if I'm in a hurry. Starting tomorrow, fried eggs & egg whites topped with a fresh batch of homemade pico de gallo. Can't wait!

      I am thinking about taking this route, chicken or eggs. Thought it might work for me so I don't eat everything else later.

      Frozen mixed berries with natural or Greek yoghurt, with cinnamon and sometimes a teaspoon of peanut butter or honey or both! I save it until about 10am and by then the berries have slightly defrosted but are still deliciously cold... I love it!
