    I've been having fun experimenting with 1 egg omelets. Saute your fav veggies, add egg and serve with half a grapefruit and tea or coffee. Usually comes in at under 200 calories, depending on the veggies. Another idea is Quick Oats. Less sugar than the instant oatmeal packages, but quick to make. Just add water and microwave for 1.5 min.

    1 egg white
    1 slice canadian bacon
    1 high fiber whole wheat 100 calorie english muffin toasted lightly

    use nonstick pan, warm bacon, cook egg white and slap on muffin!
    takes about 3 minutes and you can eat on the run! calories are <200
    sometimes instead of canadian bacon I put on:

    1 egg white
    Avacado
    Tomato
    Spinach

    Very filling and delicious!

    I'm really not one to eat breakfast because of time constraint, but my favorite quick and easy breakfast is Eggo's nutri-grain whole wheat waffles :) only 170 calories for two! Just pop em in the toaster :D I'm also a huge fan of instant oatmeal. It's amazing and 180 calories for a bowl, I believe. If all else fails, there's the simple options of whole wheat toast or a nutritious cereal!

    All of these options fill me up and I'd highly reccommend any of them :)

    I almost always have a thin bagel (one half w/ natural grape spread, the other w/ natural peanut butter), a V8 fusion juice (only because I'm bad about eating veggies so I try to drink one a day or every other day), and a hard boiled egg.

    1 packet instant oatmeal (or equivalent amount of rolled oats -- instant is just more conveinent for me)
    2 tbsp peanut butter
    2 tbsp wheat germ
    2/3 cup milk (I use 1%, because, sadly, I'm being lactose intolerant ;P)

    The best breakfast around!! For just about 400 calories!!

    Hardboiled eggs, turkey bacon, tomato slices, and string cheese. That's my standard M-F breakfast. I take it to work and eat it as I'm settling in for the day.

    I also love pre-cooking steel cut oats, only I use my rice cooker. It' so simple and healthy! I also enjoy Greek yogurt topped with my favorite cereal or granola. I eat scrambled eggs with a bit of parmesan cheese. I also eat a lot of green smoothies which include spinach, frozen banana, chocolate protein powder, sometimes a dab of coconut butter, and a few blueberries. Super nutritious and so yummy. You'd never know spinach was in it!

    Steel Cut oats cooked with vanilla, cinnamon and raisins. When done cooking cut up an apple and let sit for a few minutes. I cook it in my rice cooker so it makes enough for a couple days.

    i cut an english muffin in half and put in toaster. While waiting on it, i take one slice of 2% american cheese cut in half and get sliced deli style ham ( 6 slices is 70 cal ). When toaster pops up place 3 pieces of ham and half slices of cheese on each side of english muffin. Put in microwave for 30 seconds and enjoy!!!!! A good, filling breakfast sandwich with about 200 calories.
