    Overnight oatmeal. It looks gross the first time you make it, but just do it. Its really good, and can be really flexible. Look on here or google it for lots of different recipes/flavors.

    I take hard boiled eggs, dried fruit and nuts, greek yogurt or over night oatmeal.

    I have a protein shake in the morning. Surprisingly filling and nutritious. So quick and easy too x

    Make a batch of breakfast burritos on the weekend and freeze them (eggs, light cheese, veggies, turkey bacon....whatever you want wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla). Then, grab one and warm it up when you get to work. About a minute in the microwave.

    I like to make a big egg bake (eggs, spinach, bit of feta, chopped up red peppers) and bring pieces of that. Or make mini crustless quiches and bring those. So easy!

    I make mini quiches in a muffin tin on Sunday evenings and take them to work through-out the week. They are super easy:

    Steam broccoli (I buy the frozen steam in a bag) then mash it with a potato masher.
    Mix in 2 tbs of grated parmesan
    Spray muffin tin with non-stick spray then fill half way with broccoli/cheese mix
    Combine 3 large eggs with 1 1/2 cup of egg whites then pour over broccoli mixture until cup is nearly full.
    Sprinkle low fat cheddar over each and bake at 425 for about 25 minutes.

    You can use any veggie. I have used spinach once, and diced ham and bell pepper another time. They're all delicious and very low cal/fat each. I usually eat 2 or 3 of them.
