    I often have an omelet with 2 egg whites, 1 whole egg, mushrooms and a little bit of cheese.
    I have a plastic thing that means you can make it in the microwave which speeds it up in the morning.

    -hard boiled eggs
    -egg scramble (1whole egg, 1 egg white, veggies, salsa)
    If you cut up the veggies ahead of time, it only takes about 5 minutes to make it.
    -greek yogurt (you can jazz it up by adding fruit, honey, cinnamon, etc)
    -protein shake
    -bananas
    -peanut butter w/ toast
    add a glass of milk or natural fruit juice to any of these.

    I also always look for organic/natural stuff.

    I make a whole bunch of old fashioned (or steel cut) oats on Sunday and portion it for my breakfast during the week. The great thing about making old fashioned oats is you can put whatever you want...

    Canned Pumpkin
    Banana
    Choc Chips
    Strawberries
    BlueBerries

    Or you can make baked oatmeal (this heats up nicely in the microwave).

    I also have made egg casseroles and portioned up for breakfast.

    Slice of whole grain toast (cut in half), heat and serve turkey breakfast sausage, half a slice of cheese. Takes about two minutes to put it together.

    I just tried plain yogurt this morning mixed with a small bit of cereal, and it was surprisingly delicious. I normally do the instant Quaker Oats, though.

    I love plain greek yogurt blended with some frozen fruit, pretty darn quick.
    I second this. Quick and tasty. If I'm having it at home I'll add 20g of fruit 'n' fibre and to really push the boat out a swirl of honey as well. Still only 250ish cals.

    I love oatmeal. I make a big batch of old fashion quacker oats with optional ingredients: dried cranberries, walnuts, wheat germ, milled flax seeds, etc. on my day off and divide it in small containers 3/4 c servings. I pop it the microwave with a splash of milk and in 1:30 a hot, filling breakfast is done. My recipe makes 7 servings for each day of the week. I wouldn't start my morning without it. You can find the complete recipe on my blog..... http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/FollowMeFit

    P.S. Instant is not "bad" for you but it is processed which makes it easier to digest, quicker to turn to instant energy that your body will use before it uses the stored stuff (fat), and doesn't keep you as full as the unprocessed kind. :smile:

    Whole grain english muffin with nut butter and flax
    Oatmeal (steel cut oats are best but anything is better than nothing - even the instant packets) with fresh fruit added in
    A banana with a handful of raw nuts
    An apple with 1/2 whole grain bagel and 1 to 1 1/2 tblsp fat free cream cheese (tip: try adding veggies like leafy greens, shredded carrot, and onion to your bagel to help get in those veggie servings)
    Skim milk and whole grain cereal + 1/2 cup fresh berries

    I like to take a greek yogurt, dump in it a tupperware container with a 1/2 cup dry oats and let sit overnight or for a few hours.

    I enjoy an apple with peanut butter and an atkins shake. Love Atkins for the very low sugar content.

    beat an egg and microwave in a small bowl (like a custard dish) for 45 sec on high. Add some cheese and maybe some diced ham. I'll also have a plum on the side.

    I throw this in the microwave: 1/2 c. chopped broccoli, 1 c. chopped spinach, 1/4 c. diced red (or yellow, orange, green) bell pepper, and eggs--either whole or egg whites (I get the packaged egg whites). I mix the eggs with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and then mix the veggies in. Microwave till done (for some reason, the times vary from 2-4 minutes, depending on the day). Sometimes I put a TBSP of cheese on and then flip it together. I can cook it while I'm getting ready to go, grab from the micro, eat really fast, and go. Good protein, veggies... and not horrible on the sodium.

    Something else that's good is Greek yogurt with a scoop of protein powder mixed in.

    Lately, I've been adding 1 TBSP of PB2 (powdered peanut butter) and a TBSP of sugar free preserves and mixing it with my Greek yogurt. It's like a PBJ in a bowl. YUMMY!

    I eat 2/3 cups of granola, a dannon light and fit yogurt or yoplait light yogurt with blueberries (if I can find them) or a banana if I can't find the berries due to the season. It keeps me full all morning and I pack it all separately and mix it together at work and eat it at my desk. I eat that in the morning around 830 and I'm good until lunch at 1230 and it is only around 400 calories and tastes yummy. My favorite granola is Cascadian dark chocolate almond

    My favorite breakfast is: (and I cook this breakfast sausage ahead and keep in freezer)

    1/3 cup egg whites
    2 oz. Isernio's Chicken Breakfast Sausage
    1 Eating Right (or Orowheat) Multi-Grain Sandwich Round

    Put the sandwich round in the toaster. Spray a small fry pan with pan spray. Put in the crumbled sausage and heat over medium until it starts frying. Spread them evenly in pan, then gently pour in the egg whites and cook over medium heat until done. Break apart so the eggs/sausage fits on the sandwich round toast and viola! Only 205 calories.

    This sandwich is huge and has plenty of protein to last me until lunch time. Sometimes I even have it for lunch with glass of fresh carrot juice.. yummy!

    Edit: Oh, this takes about 5 minutes.

    One more:

    1 Ore-Ida hash brown patty square (come 9 in a box)
    1-2 eggs

    Spray pan with pan spray. Fry the hash brown patty. Put on the plate. Re-spray pan and add egg(s). Cook to preference. With one egg 140 cal. With 2 eggs. 210 cal.
