ATM I'm eating salmon and green beans.

Just made me wonder what your non breakfasts breakfasts might be?

    This is rare, but when I do it, my husband thinks I'm insane...cold leftover pizza.

    This time of year, I like something warm, and try as I might, I can't make oatmeal both enjoyable and fit my calories and macros.

    Lately I've been having Potato Leek Soup with Ham. That is super filling to me!

    This AM I will have African Peanut Sweet Potato Stew. I halved the recipe b/c I was not sure if anyone else would like it and added 6 oz ground turkey to boost the protein.

    I left out the cinnamon for my brother and he did like it. (I add cinnamon to mine after I serve myself.) Mom hasn't tried it yet, but I think she'll like it. My partner took one sniff yesterday and headed out for Wendy's for lunch, but I still love him ;)

    Leftovers from dinner are common for me, and for a while I was having salads.

    I will usually do leftovers, chicken tenders, or eggrolls

    Green chile stew is a fairly common one for me in the winter. We make if fairly often and it's a big batch. Also, leftover enchiladas with rice and beans...either when we make them at home or if we go out. When I'm camping I like to have trout if I happened to have an early catch before breakfast.

    A big bag of broccoli slaw, softened by nuking in the microwave, then covered in vinegar and hot sauce....... And gum. Lol.

    Plain roast chicken breast with no added sugar BBQ sauce is fair game 24/7. Something so much more satisfying about using a fork and eating from a plate than if I have a bar or a shake.

    @Idontcareyoupick I was unaware that there was such a thing as a "leftover eggroll". I'm sure there's never been one in my house. Probably part of why I'm here on MFP, right?

    I am in theory not supposed to be on breakfasts as I'm supposed to be eating between about 2pm and 8 pm.. but life is for living, and it's just not meant to be that intense, so sometimes I'll have a couple of cheese wedges. I often turn to cheese in a crisis! Or I might have a tin of tuna or sardines. Or half a packet of salami. I don't have proper 'breakfasts', never actually have, rely on coffee mostly, but if I am peckish I reach for low carb at the moment, trying to get my sugars down (diabetic.)

    I like asian breakfast, which are typically noodle soups, congee or stir fried noodles.

    I buy extra eggrolls so I can have them for breakfast because there aren't usually any extra. Probably part of why I'm on here too lol
