Breakfast Veggies?

Eat dinner for breakfast, breakfast doesn't have to consist of what we tend to think of as breakfast foods. Scrambled tofu with loads of veggies. Veggie soup. Smoothies (rather than juicing so that you don't lose the fiber - but if you have a good juicer that doesn't leave behind a ton of stuff I think juicing is awesome). My favorite smoothie: banana, coconut milk, berries - fresh or frozen, sometimes mango, ground flaxseed, cinnamon, and lots of kale.

I've only ever had it once (took up way to much time in the morning for me to do often), but look up recipes for savoury oatmeal, you could get tons of veggies in there! it was really good actually becuase if you think about it, we are used to oats as something sweet only because we are so used to sweetening them with sugar/fruit etc. but it's a grain, like wheat or rice. don't tell me you only ever eat bread with a sweet spread!
oats are a blank canvas, get creative :flowerforyou:

I don't like omlettes either, but I do like frittatas. Something about it being oven baked with the a bit of parmesan melted on top makes it taste better to me. My favorite is a fresh spinach and sweet onion frittata.

I used to eat deviled eggs and a side of fresh steamed green beans for breakfast all the time. Steamed asparagus seems like a good breakfast veggie too. Other breakfast veggies - Half a tomato with fresh mozzerella and basil on top broiled until the cheese is bubbly; cottage cheese with veggies; light cream cheese blended with lots of tiny chopped veggies like carrot, spinach, celery, onion, etc. spread on celery, crispbread, or a mini-bagel; peanut butter stuffed celery sticks

I love using my broiler! I will take an english muffin and put tomato, spinach, or any other veggie I want and top it with a cheese and broil it for a min or so. You can also use a toaster oven. Tastes yummy! Also, I put pico de gallo in most of my egg scrambles.

Like others have said..there is no rule about what you eat for breakfast! Have fun with it!

When I make a breakfast sandwich (like today) I have whole wheat or grain bread or a wrap with egg, lettuce and/or spinach, peppers, tomatoe, cheese, etc. Also, I agree, breakfast doesn't have to consist of traditional breakfast choices. I also mix fruit with my yogurt to change things up a bit and I am big on smoothies - I love them and try different ones to see what I like best! If you enjoy salads why not make a salad for breakfast? I put everything in my salads and have had some great comments from those who don't even like salads - they have called them masterpieces. I include a variety of mixed greens, spinach, almonds, cheese (i.e. feta or cheddar), dried cranberries, walnuts, meat (turkey, chicken, etc), peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, grapes, apples, broccoli, raisins, etc. Basically whatever is on hand I mix together for a wonderful blend of colours, texture, and taste. Then I'm not eating the same old salad every day and becoming bored with it. You can use a little dressing such as a vinegarette if you like. I've also had half a toasted bagel with apple slices on it and melted cheese on top of the apple. It is delicious. The options are endless and increasing fruits and veggies is very important so it is nice to incorporate them whenever you can. Good luck.

I second the savory oatmeal and veggies in runny eggs suggestions!

There's tons of recipes for savory oatmeal - where you treat it more like polenta than the breakfast stuff. You can add in mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes - anything. A bit of light parmesan - so tasty!

We also like to make poached eggs to dip asparagus or zucchini in. We put bell jar canning rings in the bottom of the poaching pan and pour the eggs into the rings; use a spatula to make sure the egg doesn't stick to the ring - perfect poached eggs every time

Breakfast burrito (black beans, peppers, onions, tomato, greens)
Try more of an egg scramble rather than an omelet and see if that is more pleasing to you.
You could stuff a baked sweet potato (from the night before) with black beans and kale DELICIOUS
Wraps and breakfast sandwiches are great options stuff them with your fave sauteed veggies

I agree with the breakfast burrito. I like to include a tofu scramble (husband likes egg scramble) in there to make it a little more breakfasty.

I tend to make my quick breakfasts on the mexican side.
Beans and rice with salsa is super quick if you have leftover rice.
Breakfast fajitas with leftover stir-fry and seitan or other protein option
Quesadillas (husbands favorite) packed with beans, rice, veg and cheese (omit cheese for me).
At work we make an egg bake- eggs, mushrooms, spinach, onion, and seasoned to taste. Pour into appropriate pan (so it is about 1/2" thick and bake for 10-15 minutes. You can cut it into smaller squares and keep in the fridge about a week. They make excellent sandwiches with bagels or just a quick side to enjoy.

I microwave a sweet potato and put a fried egg or two on top. yum
