    When I was on the keto diet I made chaffles. Mini waffle sandwiches made with cheese , egg and a tiny bit of almond flour. Just cook in the mini waffle maker until golden. I also made sausage ball Patties the same way and and ate together. You can make a bunch and freeze them.

    Crack an Egg. You can find them in the egg section of your grocery store. Quick, easy and yummy.

    My go-to are eggs in various preparations:
    1. An omelette with 2 eggs, 1 tbsp of milk, some salt, mix it all, heat up a pan with a bit of oil till it's very hot, put the mixture on it, and as soon as the first bottom layer solidifies, gently pick it up and tilt the pan for the liquid that's on top to go on the bottom. This results in a really nice fluffy omelette.
    2. Hard boiled eggs, with a bit of smoked salmon on top, cucumber, tomato.
    3. Soft-boiled eggs, actually, the yolk is liquid and the white is solid, a piece of a multi-grain bread with a bit of butter.

    I like quick oats with a little bit of brown sugar and fruit, yogurt with fruit, or a protein smoothie with frozen berries, almond milk, protein powder and spinach.

    Used to love eggs, got covid in October and now I can't stomach them, no idea why.

    6 oz plain non-fat greek yogurt mixed with 1/2 cup berries of choice. I add a sprinkle of cinnamon, a tbsp of chopped nuts or granola sometimes. I also use a dash of sweetener.

    1/3 cup quick oats mixed with 2/3 cup water, microwaved for about 60-80 seconds. I mix in a couple tbsp of unsweetened almond milk and 1/2 cup berries, or sometimes 1/2 a medium banana or 1/2 a chopped apple if I want the carbs. Add a little cinnamon and a bit of sweetener.

    100 calorie multi grain english muffin topped with 1 tbsp each peanut butter and no sugar added jam. Sometimes I top the peanut butter with a few slices of banana if I can work in the carbs. Or I do the same with a couple slices of light multi-grain bread instead of the english muffin.

    Usually once a month I make a crustless quiche to eat through out the week. I do veggie ( usually broccoli, zucchini, or asparagus) and cheese but sometimes I add some lean chopped ham.

    Once a week I hard boil a few eggs to keep in the fridge for when I need something quick.

    I do overnight oats a lot - add nuts, yogurt, cinnamon, fruit, whatever. The discipline of making it the night before, and then having something right there, the right portions, that won't last long, helps to keep me on track with eating what I am supposed to, which is a great way to start the day. Same with chia pudding, though that is a bit less healthy for me as I can't find a low sugar version I really like. Or on days that I have a bit more time (like 10 minutes) scrambled tofu or eggwhite scramble with vegies.

    For about a decade, the only breakfast I would have on work days was Vega One with plain yogurt.

    I worked a job where I absolutely could not take a break to eat, so whatever I had for breakfast had to keep me full and working at a very intense pace for 6-7 straight hours. Vega One with plain yogurt was the only meal I ever found that could do that and not leave me miserable around hours 4-5. Plus it was stupid easy to make during a rushed morning.

    Now I do IF though and just don't eat breakfast, so that's even easier.
