    I like an Ezekiel pita with crunchy peanut butter, plus a cup of plain nonfat kefir, for 381 calories and 25g protein.

    ETA P.S. If you're willing and able to prep ahead, freeze, and microwave, look online for recipes for breakfast burritos, egg muffins/muffin tin frittatas. There are eggs in the latter, but not plain.

    Some suggestions from my own breakfasts

    - Mix 15 gram vanilla casein with some milk. Use a milk whisker to get that lovely latte-fluff. Pour in strong coffee.
    - Make oatmeal, add blueberries on top. Mix vanilla casein and water to something that looks like thick milk and pour on top.
    - Make protein pancakes
    - Boil eggs and eat with caviar
    - Mix cottage cheese with Greek 0% fat yoghurt and add berries and some granola
    - Eat some vegetables, fruits, eggs and a slize of bacon

    Sorry - Starting with eggs ;-) I cook 9 tbsp egg whites and top with 2 tbsp of various salsas. It is very high protein, filling and lots of flavor. Under 100 calories. If you want more, try some turkey sausage for another 100 calories.

    I've lost 100 pounds through MFP and creating my own recipes along the way! I recently started my own recipe website and posted a high-protein biscuit and gravy casserole that is AMAZING!

    Finding and creating recipes for food I'm excited to eat has made all the difference in my weight loss journey.

    This is weird, but I made it to use up leftovers:

    1 chocolate Premier Protein Drink
    1 serving chocolate vegan protein powder
    1/2 avocado
    water

    Mix in blender and drink. With that much chocolate you dont taste the avocado, but it provides healthy fats and makes it filling. This was 450cal 53g Protein, 7g Carbs, 21g fat. I drank it at 6:30am and made it all the way to lunch without feeling too hungry.

    I am making Healthy Mixed Berry Smoothies for breakfast since it's warmed up here in Argentina quite a bit. The recipe is from joyfoodsunshine.com/berry'smoothie/#wprm-recipe-container-23147. With a banana it's a perfect summertime breakfast!

    I do a lot of smoothies.
    Protein powder, some berries, AG1, ice and water. Sometimes I'll throw in something like metamucil for extra fibre.

    As far as quick and easy breakfasts, I've been making chia seed pudding for quite some time. It's a recipe from Giada DeLaurentis on the Food Network. I actually quadruple the recipe because I eat it most mornings. And, by quadrupling the recipe, there's very little measuring. I recently started using half maple syrup and half pure allulose. But, it's a good recipe either way.

    I add 14 grams of finely diced walnuts and 70 grams of partially defrosted blueberries (in the microwave). And, I usually have a HB egg, which I actually steam (I make them ahead). And, I've started having a glass of vanilla unsweetened almond milk for some calcium. I recently had a bone density test. And, they said that I have osteopenia. So, I figured that it wouldn't hurt to up my dietary calcium. My doctor didn't recommend calcium supplements.

    I personally eat my eggs with the yolks. The whites contain most of the protein. But, the yolks contain most of the healthy nutrients. I don't worry about cholesterol. I've read that if you don't eat enough of it, your body will produce it. I don't eat huge amounts of eggs...usually just one HB with my chia seed pudding in the morning. And, occasionally two scrambled or fried. And, my cholesterol levels are perfect.

    @SurferGirl1982 I recently heard chia seeds lower your blood pressure. I didn’t know that and thought I’d share.

    @Rainbow2300 No, I did not know that. That's great to know. The also contain protein, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids. A very nutritious little seed.
