    I love overnight Oats! PB and banana is my favourite! Either that or fun toast, try avocado and tomato or spinach, tomato, mushroom over mashed chickpeas. Yum yum!

    I eat two soft boiled eggs, half of an avocado and some greens (either spinach or arugula). I used to eat oatmeal and fresh fruit, but overtime it started to make me feel bloated.

    I love breakfast smoothies and am a big fan of Vega protein & greens vegan protein shake mix. It contains vegetable-derived protein and is sweetened with all natural stevia. I blend 2 scoops with water and a cup of frozen organic blueberries. It's quick to make, tastes good, and keeps me going until lunch.

    I prepare a batch of steel cut oatmeal, freeze on a sheet pan; and precut small portions for breakfast; take out in morning add a little choice milk preference and a slice of grain toast.
    another choice, is hard cooked eggs, cheese slice, homemade v8 juice or small fruit; veg/furit protein smoothie and a few nuts.

    Breakfast spring roll! Scrambled egg (or Eggbeaters), turkey sausage, fat-free "refried" beans, 1/4 avocado or a little bit of cheese, bit of diced tomato, all rolled into a spring roll wrapper, sprayed with a bit of olive or avocado oil, and baked until browned and crispy. (If you have an air fryer, it's PERFECT!)
    You can use just about anything you want--leftover veggies, whatever sounds good that morning, to fill it.

    My two favorite breakfasts this week:
    - olive tapenade (olives, garlic; used olive oil as per recipe but will use avocado next time) on slices of cucumber and carrot
    - overnight blueberry chia pudding (cashew milk, vanilla, blueberries, chia seeds)

    Plain oatmeal with 1/4 cup blueberries has been my favorite lately. Quick, easy and fills me up. Usually once a week I have breakfast for dinner, something like scrambled eggs and bacon or low-carb pumpkin pancakes with sugar-free syrup. I'm not super strict with clean eating because I will eat bacon and sugar free syrup.

    I'm having a "mushroom, spinach and feta breakfast casserole" with a no-sugar added fruit cup each day this week. I will have a slice each day for a week. Just veggies, eggs and cheese, and it's filling.

    My egg white cupcakes are egg whites, lean home ground Turkey breast, onions, home canned kale, seasonings....all mixed up. Non stick cupcake/muffin tin, fill 3/4 full with mixture, bake in oven at 400F until done or golden on top.

    I take them out to cool and then store in a zip lock in the fridge. Quick easy on-the-go breakfast.

    Can I make omelets the night before to take to work for me for breakfast because I am on the run constantly?

    I do something like this, except I make frittatas (think, baked omelette) twice a week and take them for breakfast for the next few days. Great way of getting in protein and a load of veggies (don't use mushrooms though, they release water as they're baking, which seems to stop the eggs setting properly, or I'm doing something badly wrong).

    I have Bob’s Mills9 grain cereal, with apple bits and cinnamon cooked right in. Or, I make a veggie “omelette” vegan style, made out of chick pea flour and other stuff - more like a pancake with veggies cooked in. One more idea: a vegan protein smoothie - pea protein powder, water, kale leaves, frozen strawberries & some pineapple.

    Here is something I do to get mushrooms to release water so I can cook with them: This works for mushrooms sliced, hand chopped, or chopped to a fine "grain" in the food processor. I put them in the dry skillet and stir constantly while cooking over a medium-high flame. In less than 5 minutes, depending on the amount of mushrooms, they will start releasing water. When they look like they have released enough water, remove them from the skillet. Yes, your skillet will get cooked-on mushroom residue, but that is easily cleaned with water while the skillet is still hot. And the mushrooms are removed, of course. I use an iron skillet.
