La banderita whole wheat low fat tortilla....spread with fage o greek high protein ff yogurt....3oz grilleed chicken....covered in fresh salsa (onion tomatos peppers) with habenero sauce ....comes in at 16 grams protein...6 carbs....2 fat....6 fiber and all for 220 calories....i pre grill chicken for the week on the bbq ....and buy store bought fresh chopped salsa...so this literally takes 60 seconds to throw together...yum and all the nutients need to get you going! Also good for quick throw together mid meal snacks!

During the week if I'm in a hurry before work, I'll have instant brown sugar and cinnamon oatmeal
and single serving cinnamon applesauce; if a little more time, I'll have a sweet potato with a little
butter and brown sugar.
On weekends, I lighten up a little as far as eating: today (Sat) had 2 eggs, 2 slices bacon, and
some potato thing that my husband makes) over 400 cal but is weekend fare.

4 pieces of turkey bacon -100 cal, 1 egg and 1 egg whites - 87 cal , homemade biscuit - 138 cal & 1 c. tTropicana Trop50 -50 cal Total of 375 calories...occasionally i may also use a teaspoon or so of Polaner All Fruit Jelly just for a little something extra :0)

im addicted to Oats so Simple pots - ready in 2 mins, 214 cals and some wicked flavours. Tastes really sweet and naught but its not - genius! So handy too I get into work at 7am log in and enjoy my brekkie while sorting through my emails yummy!!

You should try adding fresh strawberries in lieu of the choc chips and sugar - equally sweet and much more nutritious :bigsmile: And PB, strawberries and chocolate is a winning combination! It's like a PB + nutella + jam sammich! Mmmmmm :blushing:

It depends on the day because I don't like to eat the same thing all the time. But I have a few breakfasts that I eat that are under 400 calories. Today's breakfast total was 328 calories.

150 2 large eggs scrambled (using cooking spray)
90 2 strips pan fried bacon
35 1 slice light whole wheat toast
53 1 cup of sliced strawberries

I didn't read the whole thread to see if anyone else already posted this...

I make muffin pan fritattas and I think they are awesome.

in a frying pan, make a mixture of any low cal meat or veg you like..
turkey bacon
veggie sausage
lean ham cubes
asparagus
mushrooms
onions
spinach
etc

chop it all up, then use a tea spoon of oil or some cooking spray and saute it all togher so the veggies are wilted and flavors mix. season with pepper, mrs. dash or spices you like.

spray a muffin pan with non stick spray, put a spoonfull of the mix in each cup and fill 3/4 of the way with egg whites. ( I just get egg whites premade in a carton)

bake at 350 till the eggs are full cooked/slightly brown on top. 10 - 15 minutes depending on the size of the muffin cups.

each 'muffin' is 40 - 100 calories depending on what you put in them.

put them in the fridge and have 2 - 4 for breakfast every morning, cold or heated up in the microwave.

Here was my Brinner the other day:

All white egg whites, approx 3/4 Cup (3 or 4 eggs worth), 100 Cals
Village hearth light wheat bread, 4 slices 160 cals
Jennie-O Extra Lean Turkey Bacon 8 slices 160 cals

Total 420 Cals, so either remove a slice of toast or a few strips of bacon...I just felt like spoiling myself

oh and I had Tropicana 50 orange juice for 50 calories

1c special k advantage w/ 1/2 cup soy milk (187 cals) or
1 slice of sourdough toast w/ 2 egg whites and a handful of spinach (about 200-230 cals) or
1/3 cup rolled oats w/ 1tbsp peanut butter & 1tbsp choc protein

sometimes instead of the pb & protein i use fresh/frozen berries which lowers the cals

How about beans on toast?

Or peanut butter and sliced banana on toast?

(make it wholemeal or granary toast, and avoid butter, use spread)
