Need Breakfast Ideas!!!

I don't have time to make eggs, I need something quick, and I got sick of oatmeal after about 3 days...

I eat Kashi Go Lean Crunch cereal and low fat milk. It has 8 grams of protein and 9 grams of fiber in a 1 cup serving (not even counting the milk) and I actually stay full for hours after. I buy it at Kroger, Costco has it, so it is probably everywhere. There is just a little bit of honey in the cereal so it tastes sweet, but I usually add blueberries too.

multi grain waffle and peanut butter
almond milk and carnation instant breakfast packet
plain greek yogurt with fresh berries and a squirt of mio
egg beaters with laughing cow cheese on a high fiber english muffin
non sugar loaded cereal with almond milk
bagel thin with peanut butter or cream cheese and a banana
sliced strawberries with sliced bananas, lemon juice and a spoonful of fat free cool whip

i've never been a breakfast person. don't really like any of it...cereal, toast, jam, eggs, oatmeal. so typically, i have a very small bowl of whatever leftovers are around. and if there are no leftovers, i pull out the old magic bullet and whip up my breakfast shake:

1 banana
1 cup of unsweetened almond milk
2 tsp ground flax
1 tbsp wheat grass powder
top up with water & blend!

its an acquired taste, but holds me until lunch & gives me lots of energy.

I need ideas too
This sounds delicious

Thomas English muffin (100 cal), topped with scrambled egg, fresh spinach, slice of tomato, a couple slices deli ham and sprinkle with hot sauce...stick it in the toaster oven or microwave..mmmm...it's filling and tasty and about 220 cal

I like eating mini wheats cereal, now that not may be the greatest but if you only eat the suggested amount then its not too bad. I only ever put 1/2 cup of 1% milk in it too and let the mini wheats soak the milk up. The other I like to eat is cottage cheese 2% with chucks of pineapple in it. You get the protein from the cheese and pineapple helps speed up digestion!! I'm sure you could eat 1% cottage cheese but I don't like it as much as 2% for some reason. I also like to eat yogurt any kind with cut up banana just 1/2 banana or grapes or frozen berry mix. Hope that helps!!!

ive been making myself smoothies with added protein powder for breakfest its quick and easy and filling.

I love breakfast. I reviewed some fast food breakfast on my blog out of boredom the other day. lol I don't eat fast food breakfast every day, but I do have it now and again.

Since you hate oatmeal, I won't go there.

I can't stand yogurt, but lots of folks love to have yogurt for breakfast, especially greek yogurt.

You could have fruit.

The Laughing cow spreadable cheeses are pretty good on a bagel also. English muffins, wheat toast are options. I love to make wheat toast sandwiches with egg and cheese on them. Nomnomnom

If you like waffles you can probably find some freezer waffle options that are decent choices. Eggo has been advertising a whole grain waffle that I've been meaning to look into.

Less nutritiously sound, but I still occasionally make pancakes.

And breakfast doesn't HAVE to be breakfasty. I've been known to eat a chicken breast with a green veggie (green beans, asparagus, etc.) in the morning as well as a fish fillet or a nice turkey sandwich. Yum!

Granola is a bomb option also and you can add stuff to it as you like. On days I'm in a rush, I usually have a granola bar and plan an early lunch. I also have some Enjoy Life bars that I'll eat sometimes, but they're not as good as a granola bar.

Sometimes when I travel I make muffins. I like the Martha White mixes and get the honey bran. Then I just load the muffins into my travel fridge and I have breakfast for the week.

I used to make omelets and frittatas all the time until I started watching my cholesterol.

Just to throw in something a little off beat - Instant noodles. I know it sounds incredibly weird, but in Japan they eat noodles for breakfast and while I was over there I rather got to like it. It's warm, it's filling, it's incredibly quick to make and because it is high in carbs, it keeps you going for a long time. It might not seem like the healthiest choice, but when you look at it objectively, breakfast should be one of the highest energy meals, and with this you'll not be tempted to snack before lunch. Good luck! Oh, and smoothies are great - mango and banana with a cup of O.J. and a spoonful of honey - particularly tasty if you chop and freeze your fruit the night before then whiz it up. Both Mango and banana are high energy, fuel foods that keep you full for longer.

totally agree!

I have this too but with greek yoguart instead of milk....keeps me full for a very long time Also a healthy pancake receipe:

4 egg whites
1 cup of cottage cheese
1 cup of oats (don't worry it dosen't taste like oatmeal)
I add some vanilla and cinnemon to taste. Mix it all in the blender, put the oats in last...and these are very good pancakes

Make your own Musli!!!

Mix 1/2 cup rolled oats (not instant)
2 tsp raw honey
2 tbsp chopped walnuts
a dash of cinnamon in a bowl.

Add 1 cup water; cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate overnight.
Serve topped with 1 apple, chopped.

I use Naturade Total Soy Meal Replacement Protein Powder. It is awesome. I have the vanilla, strawberry creme, and chocolate flavors. I mix and match shake depending on how I feel. Below are a couple of recipes.

1 scoop of Chocolate flavor protein powder
1/2 small banana
3 tablespoons of fat free vanilla yogurt
1/4 cup of almond milk original unsweetend
several cubes of ice


1 scoop of Strawberry creme
1 pineapple ring slice
1/2 banana
3 tbsp of fat free yogurt of your choice (i.e. vanilla, plain, strawberry, peach, blueberry)
1/4 cup of almond milk original unsweetened
several cubes of ice

I pretty much mix and match. All these amount to 140-190 calories depending on the additional fruit amounts. Really filling makes about 16-24 ounces depending on the amount of ice and fruit you add. Hope this helps

I like to make an omelet with southwest style egg beaters and a little low fat pizza blend shredded cheese. Sometimes I buy the little packs of diced ham and throw in too and top with salsa,

I have to be at work in the mornings for 8am so I don't usually have time to cook myself something for breakfast in the week. My on the go breakfast is usually a breakfast wrap, which I make by spreading a small amount of nutella or peanut butter onto a small flour tortilla then topping it with a chopped banana and wrapping it up. I think it would also be nice to add in some chopped nuts but I never usually have any in the flat.

When I have time in the mornings, usually just at the weekend, I have baked grapefruit which is half a grapefruit drizzled with honey and a pinch of cinnamon and baked in the oven for 15 mins at 180C. Or I'll have scrambled eggs with mushrooms on wholemeal toast.

I've never been a fan of breakfast foods so I always like to see new breakfast ideas, I especially like the one with the english muffin, scrambled eggs, spinach and ham, I like I'll try that one at the weekend!
