This winter I've been ping-ponging between two breakfast meals:
Cream of wheat (made with water) and a tsp of brown sugar. OK, maybe 2 teaspoons.
or
I chop up some kale, throw it in a skillet, crack two eggs over it and stir it all up over med. heat.
Right now I have some left over salmon so this morning I'm going to flake that into the eggs and maybe add a tiny bit of cream cheese.0 -

if your not a huge morning-eating person, you could always do a good protein shake, a green smoothie with stuff like kale, spinach, apple juice, and carrots yum or eggwhites and fat free cheddar cheese is my favorite0

Mum on the run, my breakfast if I get chance consists of a bowl of all bran with 1spoon sugar and milk, cup of coffee, and running after my boys getting them finish for school and while driving to work I will munch a apple/banana or nectarine. Most morning i get it right but then there are those mornings when I am just to lazy to get out of the bed and start my day.0

I have a steamer, so I steam 6 - 8 eggs at a time and make hard boiled eggs and keep them in the fridge so it's quick and easy. Steamer makes them perfectly. Don't have to watch them or anything. Just set the timer.0

My daughter has trouble with breakfast too. So I set out to make a healthy filling breakfast cookie that a 5 yr old would love and could eat on the way to school. Here's my recipe, feel free to sub in other dried fruit, nuts or chocolate chips, it's to her/our tastes :-)
It's adapted from a skinnytaste.com recipe.
It's 234 calories and I save it in the database under homemade :-)
White chocolate cranberry oatmeal breakfast cookie
Ingredients:
1 cup all purpose flour
2 scoops protein powder
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup unpacked brown sugar
1 large egg
1/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups quick oats
3/4 cup white chocolate chips
3/4 cup craisins
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°; line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, protein powder, salt and cinnamon. In a large bowl, with a mixer, cream together the butter and the sugars on medium speed.
Add the egg, followed by the applesauce and vanilla extract.
Working by hand, stir in the flour mixture and the oats until just combined and no streaks of flour remain; stir in the chocolate chips and craisins.
Drop heaping tablespoonfuls (approx 2 tbsp each) of the dough onto prepared baking sheets, flattening each cookie slightly. Bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until cookies become light brown at the edges.
Let cool on baking sheet for 3 or 4 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
I put them in individual baggies so they are easy to grab on the way out the door.
Makes 15 cookies.
Enjoy!
I think I'll go share this in recipes since I got it all typed out.0 -

My favorite is scrambled eggs, an orange and a slice of whole grain toast or english muffin. My next go to is a veggie and fruit smoothie... spinach, strawberries, blueberries, pineapple, apples, bananas, grapes... whatever I have on hand. I can make up a pitcher the night before, put it in my to-go-bottle and just shake it up as I walk out the door for those "I'm running late mornings".
Protein bars are another substitute but I honestly don't like subbing breakfast for one of these though I have on occasion.0 -
