Good Morning everyone! I am looking for some healthy, high protein, low carb breakfast ideas for people on the go. I need to eat in my car while I am driving to work (long story, but just trust me on this one), and I am getting SUPER tired of slim-fast shakes. Plus, I want to have a higher calories, higher protein breakfast... and ideas? (And please don't suggest protein bars, yuck.)

Thank You!

    What about if you make yourself a smoothie to go? Soy milk, yogurt, and fruit. Have it in the car with some nuts.

    I was going to say make your own smoothies too. So much better for you and more variety than a slim fast shake. I keep frozen fruit and add a good protein along with my fiber every morning. Jay Robb has some great recipies if you go to jayrobb.com you can get lots of ideas.

    I make an egg white sandwich (VERY quickly) and wrap in tin foil for the road, it works great!

    I pour the eggs into the pan before I blow dry my hair, then when i'm done...go to the kichen, flip the eggs over and SHUT OFF the burner. Then I get dressed and go back into the kitchen and throw it all together. The other side cooks while the pan cools down without burning. works like a charm (unless i'm out of pre-made egg whites!)

    Make egg white omelets with veggies for the week. In the morning grab one and put it on low carb bread and go.

    I make a smoothie at home with a scoop of protien powder. I use Yoplait frozen smoothie, a 1/4 cup of Simply Smart Non-fat milk, 1/2 cup of water and 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder (I use Nectar Vanilla). Love it and it keeps me full...around 200 calories and lots of protein.

    I like breakfast burritos, I put 3-4 egg whites in a bowl in the microwave, nuke for 45 seconds, go do something, stir cook another 45 seconds, do something else, check them for doneness, cook an extra 30 seconds if needed, i normally put it on a low carb wheat tortilla spread with 1/4 c fat free refried beans, and top with cheese and salsa, roll up and breakfast on the go- word of advice, try it without the salsa until you know if you'll be wearing any. I normally separate my eggs, and measure everything the night before, so i have breakfast in less than 5 minutes.
