    2 slices cinnamon raisin Ezekiel bread, soaked in 2 raw eggs mixed, cook on griddle with a spray of Pam. Then, I drizzle 1 tsp real maple syrup. Holds me until lunch, delicious!

    You could try egg whites. Sometimes I use two whole eggs and than add some egg whites for extra protein.

    Typically for eggs though I’ll scramble them with black beans for fiber/protein kick. Add a bit of salsa and some veggies (onions, bell pepper, avocado) and if I have the extra calories, I’ll eat it with corn tortillas and some pepper jack cheese.

    i make an egg bake with vegetables and feta cheese - its about 6 whole eggs, then a small carton of egg whites - saute mixed vegetables (typically i use mushrooms, bell peppers, asparagus etc) - sprinkle feta cheese on top and cook for 30min at 375degree - that will typically feed me for the week

    My favorite is a soft boiled egg, on a toasted English muffin. I butter the English muffin lightly, cut the egg in half, and top each half with chia seeds (about 1/2 tsp total, 1/4 tsp on each half). I usually have an orange, banana or a cup of berries with it.

    I like to keep fresh spinach and mushrooms chopped up in a container in the fridge so that I can quickly make a 2-egg omelette in the morning. I add about 1/4 cup of shredded cheese, and done

    I like to hard boil eggs, and then cut them up and have them on a piece or two of whole wheat toast, with pineapple or banana on the side.

    One of my favorite regular breakfasts -- 2 egg omelet with vegetables (usually something like spinach, broccoli, and mushrooms), with some cottage cheese on the side.

    i make egg cups. spray muffin tin with Pam, scramble eggs and pour in. each section holds one egg. I add some chopped peppers or turkey pepperoni or bacon bits or cheese. can also line a strip of bacon around edge, like cupcake wrapper, if you want a bit more calories. Makes 12, can reheat 2 quickly for breakfast, but i also dont mind cold eggs, so I usually just eat them as it. 350 degrees for about 25 minutes. make them every sunday and they last til at least thursday or friday.

    I cook oatmeal on the stove top, add all the goodies I want like a little sugar, cinnamon and whatever else, at the last minute I mix an egg into it and stir fast so it mixed in. Can't even tell it's in there.

    I also add egg to rice the same way. You could do it with cauliflower rice and seasonings too if you are watching carbs.

    Otherwise I lightly poach or fry eggs and put them on top of all kinds of things - breakfast tostada with a little refried beans and avacado and salsa etc. topped with a runny yolk egg is delicious. Sometimes I cook a burger patty and top it with an egg. Breakfast is usually lunchtime for me so I can increase the calories a little

    Egg muffins freeze and reheat well - you can do all kinds of veggie and meat variations with those.

    Shakshouka. A bit more involved, but oh so divine. Sometimes I just make a simple sunny side up with oregano sprinkled on top with the mandatory bread to scoop the yolk. Amazing how herbs can take something so simple to the next level.

    Light English muffins are 90-100 calories depending on the brand.
