Breakfast

Options
Like many others, I need a relatively quick breakfast. These are two of my favorites:

Bowl of Breakfast:
1/2 C regular oats
1 6 oz Greek yogurt --any flavor (sometimes I use a cup of vanilla or plain yogurt--always high protein, though)
1 C fresh or frozen fruit

Cook the oats. Stir in yogurt and fruit.
This "costs" about 300-350 calories depending upon the fruit you choose.

Egg in a Basket:
I used to make these for my girls when they were little. I recently resurrected them for myself.

Whole grain bread
Egg

Spray a frying pan with Pam.
Place the bread in the pan. With a glass or biscuit cutter, cut a hole in the middle of the bread.
Crack an egg (or two) into the hole.
Fry it all up, flipping when necessary.
I like it crunchy...and can take it in the car if I need to.

Depending upon the bread, this comes in at about 170 calories if I use one egg. For additional protein, cover the whole thing with cheese.
