25g Protein for breakfast ideas???

I almost every day have 1/4 cup of egg beaters, 3 eggs whites, dash of cheese, mushrooms, salsa and a pile of spinach and make an omelet. Sometimes I'll throw in some thin & trim ham. It's over 25 grams of protein and it's a filling meal. Just works for me. I don't use carton egg whites because they are higher in sodium and typically there seems to be less in a serving as they are watery compared to regular egg whites.

Designer whey protein shakes with bananas or blueberries.

Today I had
1 jumbo egg
3/4 cup of egg beaters
1 turkey sausage patty
2/3 cup of hash browns
1 slice of american cheese
a few onions in my eggs

427 calories with 40 grams of protein

This makes me drool... and I'm not just talking about your profile picture.

I need to eat 25grams of protein for breakfast, and I'm trying to do it without protein powder, if I eat another egg I may puke...

What do you eat for breakfast?

Greek Yogurt = 12 grams of Protein
1 cup Lowfat Cottage Cheese = 14 grams of protein
5 Frozen Strawberries

359 Calories all blended into a smoothie. I hate cottage cheese but can handle it in a smoothie.

I put a scoop of whey protein in my coffee, makes it into a protein mocha (procha?), 26g protein/scoop and also adds a bit of calories to my day.

If I were a coffee drinker, I would totally do this!! Mmmm!!

I make my own sausage biscuits:

* Jimmy Dean turkey sausage patties (1 1/2 servings is 3 patties)
* Pillsbury country style biscuits, the ones that come 10 to a can (1 serving is three biscuits)

Works out to three sausage biscuits: 24 grams of protein, 3 grams of sat fat, 83 mg of cholesterol, 330 calories total

For a little added flavor you can hit each with a couple of sprays of spray butter or your favorite low-cal jam. My daughter likes her sausage with maple flavor, so you could also brush on some light maple syrup if you so please. Fairly satisfying and you don't get nearly the calories from the per-processed, all-in-one sausage biscuit offerings.

Of course, there are all sorts of other things that you could do to spice it up a little more by putting on some sauteed onions or peppers, mushroom, etc. with minimal added calories. You could always add a little touch of egg whites too and that would jack up he protein further as well as the calories. If you did that, you could probably drop down to two biscuits and two patties and, with the added egg whites, still be pretty close or lower than the 330 calories.

Have you thought about switching it up and doing the breakfast food for dinner and dinner food for breakfast.

I had a ham samwhich for breakfast this morning and we'll prob have pancakes for dinner (well at least the kids, I'm having a salad). Plain Greek yogurt with truvia and berries. A glass of milk or soymilk (or other milk like milk). Beans. Turkey sausage or bacon. Fat free cottage cheese with fruit. Soy or Tofu. Steak. Chicken salad with nuts and fruit. Nuts. Oatmeal with added nuts.

1 cup of greek yogurt and some quinoa crunch. There you go....an easy 25 g protein.

I eat turkey sausage, egg white and cheese on an english muffin.

I know you don't want to use powder but mixing some unflavored protein powder into your oatmeal works too.

Have you tried oatmeal + egg white pancakes? Spread some apple butter on them and you won't even feel like you are (yet again) eating eggs.

I've found that chewing eggs is optional. It makes it easier to get down more than I am in the mood for. lol

All in all, I am with eriemer. I am not a big fan of breakfast food, so most of the time I am eating lasagna or whatever else I am in the mood for for my morning meal.

that sounds great!!! I like sour cream in as a combiner for tuna. Will be trying this. I agree anything is good for breakfast, I sometimes get stuck on "breakfast foods".

Rolled oats with 2 egg whites cooked in, a scoop of protein powder, and cinnamon. Very yummy. I'll also top it with peanutbutter made from peanut flour. Thats about 40g of protein there. Without the powder it makes 25 still.
