    I LOVE "Primal Hot Cereal". Look it up online for more info, it's a diet sorta like Paleo, by Mark Sisson. Here's how it's made:

    1/4 cup almonds
    1/4 cup pecans
    1/4 cup milk of your choice (I like coconut best)
    sprinkle of cinnamin

    Blend in a food processor or blender (I use Magic Bullet), then heat in the microwave. It tastes like cinnamin rolls, soooo yummy. I like mine a little mushier, so I add more milk. Get creative, throw berries on top or add some coconut flakes. Enjoy!!
    yum this sounds way good!!!

    There we are, next breakfast idea!

    I do a hot cereal that is made with coconut milk and nuts... I place the nuts ( almonds, walnuts, and pecans) into a food processor and grind them down as fine as I can. I put about 1/2 cup to 1 cup of nuts into a bowl- pour about 1/2 cup of coconut milk in and then heat it up- I add fruit to this- way tastier than oatmeal and very filling... the hot cereal is called " primal hot cereal" taken from The cookbook- Quick and Easy Meals by Mark Sisson... I suggest it to anyone who is willing to try something new even if they are not primal- becuz it is simply so dang delicious I can't pass up the opportunity to tell someone about it.

    grits

    Ewww ewww ewww - grits are oatmeal's nastier, uglier cousin! haha :-)

    lol I thought so to, but it is good once in awhile with a little brown sugar. I am right there with you on the oatmeal. I make a batch at the beginning of the week, put it in single serving containers, and as it sits it seems to just continue to grow. lol You don't like eggs in any form? How about something like ham and cheese on an english muffin?

    I just really wanted to quote this peron's quote of them quoting a quote.

    Wait, What are grits?

    Quick protein pancakes. You say you don't like eggs, but honestly you cannot taste them at all...

    1/4-1/3 cup each of large flake oats, cottage cheese, egg whites (equal parts)
    a few large dashes of cinnamon
    Blend in a food processor and cook as you normally would a pancake. Makes 3-4 pancakes

    Top with warm fruit, natural PB, syrup, whatever you like.

    Enjoy your pancakes.

    If not, I guess just skip breakfast altogether because you are wayyyy too difficult to please :tongue:

    Sprouted grain toast (like Ezekiel) with organic peanut butter and cinnamon is my all time favorite meal... ahem... breakfast. :smile: Or my husband makes these breakfast sandwiches on the weekend with seasoned eggs, turkey and cheese on bagel (I would use an english muffin) and they look pretty delicious. You could obviously put whatever you wanted on the sandwich...

    Sorry, just saw the no PB thing... there are other nut butters... haha or some home made whole grain muffins or pancakes

    I usually have a cup of 1% milk, arnold whole wheat sandwich thins with either cream cheese or laughing cow light cheese (loveee it! there are different flavors to choose from), and some sort of fruit. It gives me enough calories, protein, fiber, carbs, fat to get to my morning snack :)

    Oddly enough I like baked sweet potatoes for breakfast. There are quite a few recipes on the net for protein muffins and similar breakfast foods. You can even make a batch of muffins and freeze them. Have you ever tried almond butter? I like it better than peanut butter.

    Good luck!:smile:

    What about cracked wheat or creamy wheat? Cracked wheat is better because it has the whole grain, so lots of fiber and no nutrients lost in the refining process (since there isn't much of one). But some people just prefer the smooth texture of creamy wheat better.
    You prepare either one similarly to oatmeal (cooks on the stove with water, add whatever sweetener, spices, fruits, milk, etc you would to oats) but the taste is definitely different. And unless you have a specific intolerance or allergy, I see no reason to avoid wheat. IMO it's been given a bad name lately.

    Sweet potato hash with maple syrup. Add bacon for protein. I eat mine with eggs over easy but you can leave those out.

    one of my favs:

    toast an english muffin in the oven (or toaster, I don't like them too toasty) @ 350 for 5 minutes.....

    top with a slice of pepperjack cheese, slices of tomato, 1/4 of an avacado and some fresh cilantro.....

    put back into oven for appx 5 minutes..........EAT!

    not a traditional breakfast, but still good in my opinion :smile:

    You can make light french toast using light whole wheat bread, egg whites, a dash of skim and a pinch of cinnamon! Of course a little bit of reduced calorie syrup!

    protein pancakes! you can find recipes online, and they're low-carb, low-fat, and high protein :) Also, homemade whole wheat bread is great fresh out of the oven (That's what I'm having now!)

    Brown rice. You can gussy it up with fruit, nuts, or almond milk.
    Eat some protein with it. I usually eat cottage cheese as my protein in the morning simply because it's the easiest.
