Breakfast ideas?!

My breakfasts usually are:

Oatmeal with a piece of fruit
Thomas Double Fiber English Muffins with a tbsp of peanut butter (or nutella to curb those chocolate cravings!) and a banana
Scrambled eggs with spinach and reduced fat cheese with a piece of fruit
Two hard boiled eggs, plain yogurt and toast

I tend to eat fiber and protein in the morning to keep me full until my morning snack or lunch time

Just last night I tried a new recipe that I am now in love with! It is the sweet potato oatmeal breakfast casserole from the Oh She Glows blog. I am not vegan, but this happens to be a vegan recipe. It is absolutely delicious, sweet, satisfying and very filling. I had it for dinner last night and then again for breakfast this morning. This morning when I reheated it in the microwave I added a little more of the soy milk to moisten it and a little more maple syrup to the bowl before microwaving for one minute.

The casserole makes 4 servings, so if you make it when you have time you can have breakfast in one minute for 4 mornings!

Here is the recipe...

Note that I couldn't find chia seeds in my grocery store, nor did I have a clue what they were. I texted a vegan friend and she suggested that I buy ground flax seeds instead, so that is what I did.

This is my current favorite. I wake up excited to eat it after my workout.
Overnight oats: 1/2 cup dry oats, 1/2 cup greek yogurt (I like vanilla), 1tbs peanut butter. I mix it all together and put it in the fridge overnight. Quick and delicious in the morning, very filling, protein and whole grains and some good fats. It's also good with pumpkin instead of peanut butter.

saw a recipe on here a while back that is quick and easy and filling. I have tried it and it is pretty good. My kids like it to.

1/4 cup oatmeal (or use a packet of flavored instant oatmeal if not using any fruit)
1/4 cup blueberries or any other fruit you want
1 egg
and if you want it sweeter use 1 packet of sweetener

*stir all ingredients together in a coffee cup/mug
microwave for about 50 seconds and you have a fluffy oatmeal like muffin you can eat with a spoon that has your morning carb/protein combo

I don't know how many calories you have for breakfast, but I usually have between 500 to 600 for breakfast.

Lately I have been having Turkey Sausage, Turkey Rashers, 3 eggs (scrambled or in an Omelette), Sugar and Salt Reduced Baked Beans.

I have the occasional Ready Break with Cinnamon and Sweetener then a piece of fruit afterwards. Usually Pineapple or a handful of red seedless grapes.

Today, I decided to make myself a little breakfast like burrito. Well I mean burrito's... Two small Corn Tortilla's, 2 eggs scrambled, 4 turkey rashers with about 20g of grated mature cheddar. Melted the cheese on my tortilla and it was really nice.

what are rashers? never heard that word used before?

Mmmm. today I had french toast.
