Show me your breakfast! (Under 400 cal)

2 or 3 fried egg whites cooked with cooking spray on a toasted and margerined whole grain bun that I make myself. Then I dip in ketchup and have it with a cup of coffee.

Sometimes I make a green smoothie with unsweetened applesauce, banana, spinach, berries, water, stevia, and ground flax or chia seeds.

This morning I had a slice of Trader Joe's California Style Protein Bread, toasted, and 1 Tbsp. raw almond butter.
I had Full Circle Chai Tea with Stevia, too - made the almond butter all melty.
Some mornings I have a whole grapefruit with 1/2 c. plain nonfat yogurt. Yummm!

2 fried eggs, a dash of salt and pepper
1 peice of wheat toast with a little butter
a glass of 2% milk

357 cals
and delicious.

I am making french toast...it has 308 (give or take a few depending on which syrup you use). It's fun to spice up breakfast... homemade banana nut muffins are great too!

I eat a serving of steel cut oatmeal (my particular brand is 170 calories) and I add in 1 oz of blueberries (14 calories) and a packet of splenda. On the weekends if I'm feeling too lazy to cook oatmeal on the stove then I just have a bowl of cereal (anywhere from 110-180 calories) with 1/2 cup of skim milk (40 calories). Nothing exciting but it allows me to have an extra snack somewhere in the day if I want it.

Well, I usually vary my breakfast.

1st option:
-porridge made with low fat milk and 1 tbsp of honey
-a fruit (usually apple, half of a banana, a few strawberries or nuts)
-coffee or black/green tea sweetened with 1 tbsp sugar.

2nd option:
-30g low fat meat (bresaola or light ham)
-melon or grapes
-simple scrambled eggs seasoned with oregano and dried thyme
-coffee or tea sweetened with 1 tbsp sugar

3rd option:
-25 grams brie cheese
-a few nuts or 100 g grapes
-coffee or tea sweetened with 1 tbsp sugar

4th option:
-pastry (pancakes, croissants, bagels) 1 serving
-1 small piece of butter or jam to go with the chosen pastry
-1 fruit (try low calorie: pear or apple)
-coffee or tea

5th option:

-1 yoghurt fat free or Greek yoghurt
-2 spoons of musli or oats
-a banana
-coffee or tea

6th option:

-25 g ricotta cheese or cow cheese
-1 tbsp honey
-1 sugar free biscuits
-coffee or tea

There are many ideas, try searching for breakfst/brunch recipes on cooking sites like Good Food.

During the week, I typically have one of the following:
GNC Total Lean Shake (vanilla bean or blueberries & cream)
Better Oats Oat Fit Cinnamon Roll or Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal (with blueberries or sliced apples)
Egg whites with parmesan cheese and 2 strips turkey bacon

On weekends, I typically make omelettes for breakfast, or throw eggs, cheese, and turkey sausage into a tortilla.
Here are some breakfast pictures I've made in the past.

Great thread idea.

Love a smoked salmon scram -- 3 eggs with chopped smoked salmon and cream cheese added just before it is done. Just don't overcook and it is awesome. Add peppers/onions or scallions to taste.

bump... some of these sound very tasty!!!!

I have a couple of slices of heavily seeded toast, one with marmite, the other one with either cadbury's philadelphia or a very good vintage marmalade.

Only have a tiny amount of skimmed milk in each cup of tea, so the 75ml of milk that I log at breakfast covers me for all day.

Marmite - Spread, 4 g 6 calories
Morning Glory Fat Free Skim - Milk, 75 ml 25 calories
Hovis - Bread - Seed Sensations (Rich & Roasted) Toasted, 2 Slice - 44g 244 calories
Kraft - Cadburys Philadelphia, 16 g 46 calories

Total 321, delicious and very filling.

My fave...and it lasts until lunch...

1 Multi-grain sandwich round (thin) 100 Calories
1/3 cup liquid egg whites 50 "
2 oz Isernio's Chicken
Breakfast Sausage 65

Toast the sandwich thin round. Put the browned sausage crumbles in the pan and cook for a minute or so, until hot. Pour in egg whites and cook on low until done. Put on the toasted sandwich round and tada! you have yummy breakfast sandwich for only 215 calories.

I always crumble and cook the breakfast sausage, weigh it, then put it in sandwich bags in single servings and freeze it. If I'm ravenous in the morning, I use 1/2 cup of egg whites and more sausage, then account for the extra calories. But, for 215 calories to start, you could add a cup of sliced strawberries for only 50 more calories or lots of other stuff under 100 calories and still be about 300 total.

1/2 cup oatmeal ( 1 cup cooked) (150 calories) cook with water about 1 1/2 cups depending upon your taste and consistency
2 strips turkey bacon (50 calories)
2 pieces whole wheat bread (120 calories)
1 tablespoon (Polaner blueberry preserves sugar free on toasted bread no butter) about 10 calories
1 cup green tea ( sweetened with stevia and splenda) 1 packet each (4 calories)
1/8 cup of almond milk for oatmeal and 2 splenda packets and 1 stevia packet (8 calories)
Enjoy!
