Breakfast quick foods

Hi!

If you really have no time to do anything in the kitchen, I recommend a fruit (bananas are my go-to morning on the run fruit) plus maybe some sort of meal bar (you have to be careful on the sugar in those things though, if you are watching sugar). If you are at all interested in baking, you could make some healthy muffins on the weekends and grab them with your fruit in the mornings as you head out.

If you have a little time in the kitchen (i.e. 5 mins), you can microwave eggbeaters or egg whites in a bowl, and toast a bagel thin, and put a slice of swiss or veggie sausage on it. All this should be around/under 300 cals and you can walk out the door with a breakfast bagel sammy!

I used to head to work for an hour commute at 5:30 am, so I feel your pain...

Well I always eat hard boiled eggs in the morning. Yes it takes 11 minutes but you can stick then in and keep getting yourself ready in the morning. Set the timer and throw them in a container. I make them for myself and for my son each morning. I get mine peeled and ready and eat them at work. I stink the whole place up but hey....it's payback for the burnt popcorn or fish in the microwave.

Otherwise, Jimmy Dean has these turkey muffin things. With cheese. They're very good and I think (??) they're 300 calories or less. I could be wrong on the calories but they're tasty and easy.

You can make steel cut oats in advance. Lots of it. Store it in fridge.

Then heat it up in microwave and mix in 1 T peanut butter & a dash of almond millk.

I usually buy the special k cereal bars (90 calories) and they come in lots of yummy flavors. I also eat the special k fruit crisp when in a hurry.

I am a big fan of fruit on the go or making a shake out of frozen yogurt, fruit and V8 Splash. But if I am in a huge hurry and I know that the day might not have as many vitamins in it as I should, I drink a Glucerna shake (chocolate flavor). They have 26 vitamins and minerals, manage blood sugar spikes and since I'm not a big breakfast eater, it's perfect!

Good luck!

I buy the egg beaters egg whites.
Today I had 1/2 cup of egg whites scrambled (you can microwave em for like 3 minutes) and some jalapeno black beans.

Ive put egg whites, crumbled sausage (jimmy dean) and spinach into pam sprayed cupcake pans and baked them and when they were done, I added a little bit of diet cheese. These were great for on the go.

This is actually a great suggestion. I've made mini breakfast quiches over the weekend and they last forever. All it takes in the morning is to pop 2 of these in the microwave for a couple minutes, add a few drops of hot sauce (yum) and breakfast is served! The best part, they are portable too.

Excellent! How long do you bake them? What temp?

I usually eat an english muffin with peanut butter with some sort of fruit. It's really fast, just throw it in the toaster.

I make mini frittata things in a cupcake pan. Then I freeze them and take them as needed and warm them up in the microwave.
You can make them so many different ways but my last batch was the eggs plus turkey sausage, green pepper, onion, cheese, garlic, and tomatoes.

I just made my quick breakfast food...

1 bag frozen spinach
1 tube turkey sausage
9 eggs
Shredded mozzarella (or parmesan)
Seasoning

Cook the sausage and spinach season to taste (I did italian and garlic and some spice) and let it cool, add eggs, mix, cook in muffin tins. Sprinkle with cheese near the end of cooking (they'll go a bit golden brown). They freeze well and in the microwave for less than a minute and there's breakfast. Nomn

Kashi 7 grain or blueberry frozen waffles! I eat with with a tablespoon of peanut butter (just one, it's enough to put on both!) and a banana. I put the slices on top and hold them like I would a poptart ha. No syrup or mess really and so filling/delicious

Shakes!

Nuts and bananas

so many ideas.

Egg white sandwiches:
Whatever number of egg whites you choose, 50 calorie bread, Canadian Bacon. You can always have your eggs cooked and ready to go for the week.
What about little Quiches? Spinach w/bacon is always a great one!
Greek Yogurt mixed with Carbmaster

I like to have almond milk with a scoop of protein powder, with some fiber one cereal. I find it filling. You could also bulk it up with a banana, or some chia seeds too

Oatmeal packets (at work), whole grain muffins, english muffin with PB.

There are several recipes for breakfast muffins (egg, hashbrowns, veggies) that you bake in muffin tins. You can do those ahead of time, freeze, and then microwave for an on the go breakfast.

I Have 2 hard boiled eggs and 1 cup of oatmeal and 2 tbs peanut butter. made the night before.

I throw a sausage, egg, and cheese Lean Pocket in the microwave while I get dressed. When I am ready, it is ready and I eat it on my way to work.
