    To everyone this may sound a bit weird but it is AMAZING!!!!!
    1/2 C oats
    1 T mini chocolate chips
    1 T shredded coconut
    1 T Peanut Butter

    Put all that.....except PB into a small container like a 1 C tupperwear one ahead of time. Pull out of cupboard put hot water into it, mix it and then put the lid back on and let steep. After about 4-5 min (as your getting ready or driving to work) put the PB in and mix well.

    I love it!!! I eat it almost daily.

    bump... this sounds yummy
    I can see getting addicted to this. He had me at Chocolate for breakfast. lol

    Spice Cake Mix
    1 15 oz can of Pumpkin

    Mix it up--it'll take a while to incorporate as there are no additional ingredients (water, eggs, milk, oil, etc....) spoon into a muffin tin sprayed lightly with non-stick cooking spray, bake at 350 for about 15-20 minutes (do the toothpick test to make sure) and you have the BEST pumpkin muffins EVER.

    Walnuts are really good in them, too, and you can top them with cream cheese frosting if you want (kills the calorie count, but hey...can deprive yourself all the time!!!)

    overnight oatmeal, lots of recipes on internet, love the maple blueberry, I use 1 tbsp chia seeds to make it nice & thick.

    1/4 cup 9 grain cereal ( I find you get a real nutty flavor using the 9 grain cereal original recipe called for oatmeal)
    1/3 cup milk
    1/4 cup greek yogurt
    1 1/2 tsp chia seeds (original recipe)
    2 tsp maple syrup
    blueberries to fill a one cup mason jar or similar container

    Mix all tog and put in fridge overnight, good for a few days.

    Yumm

    i do shakes in the morning! (ViSalus is my shake of choice) It is super simple, i have a personal blender, all i have to do is toss in a few things ex: milk, powder, ice, fruit and blend... off i go...i drink it on my way to work! Not only is this a simple way to start the morning, they are PACKED with nutrition!. I do like a lot of these other suggestions as well!

    I love microwave breakfast wraps.
    I mix an egg, some shredded cheese and whatever veggies I have (sometimes I throw in some lunchmeat) in a microwavable bowl and heat for 1 1/2-2 minutes while I get dressed, then I just dump it out on a tortilla wrap it up and eat it in the car on my way to work.

    I never thought of freezing a home made breakfast sandwich before. Thanks for the idea. This too will save me a lot of time in the morning. Thanks for posting.

    i make these and freeze them in freezer bags 2 in each. takes only a minute to nuke them and away you go!


    1 onion
    1 green pepper
    4 cloves garlic
    1TBSP olive oil
    1 cup frozen or fresh spinach
    12 eggs
    1 cup fat reduced mozzarella cheese
    3 TBSP bacon bits


    I do a variation of these but I don't cook the onion or spinach, jut toss them in raw with crumbled bacon, cheese and the eggs. I stick 2 in a sandwich bag and grab them out of the fridge on my way to work. I eat them cold, but I have never really cared if something was cold or hot.

    line cupcake pan with canadian bacon
    add shredded cheese to 3/4 full (cheddar, pepper jack are our favorites)
    make a little hole in top by pressing thumb in center
    crack an egg on top
    salt and pepper

    bake 350 degrees F for about 15-20 min depending on how you like your eggs

    kids of all ages in my life like this....we have it for any meal...the older kids like a dash of
    tobasco on theirs.

    each cupcake is about 113 calories...enjoy!!

    I make up mini omelettes in advance:

    * Spray a muffin/mini cake tin with oil
    * Put your chose veg/meat in each hole (cook veg and meat such as onions, bacon and peppers from scratch or be lazy, like me, and use ready-cooked frozen veg and ham)
    * Beat some eggs and pour on top of the meat/veg
    * Bake in the oven till firm
    * Cool down, pop out and pop in a plastic bag in the fridge - keep for a few days

    Fab either reheated in the microwave or cold on the run - and as quick post-workout snacks too!

    How about you just get up 30 minutes early and make breakfast?

    That's what I do.

    I wake up at 4AM to make it to work as it is. How about if you recognize that not everyone has the same schedule you do? That's what I do.
    lol!!! I hear ya!

    Are these mini muffins or regular muffin tins? Based on the calorie count you provided.
