I'm burnt out on oatmeal and cereal. Fruit is ok, but not filling enough. Need some quick and easy ideas, I don't have a lot of time in the mornings.

Thank you!

    Egg white omelettes? Turkey sausages or rashers. I love that.

    Omelets and scrambles. They only take a couple of minutes.

    i eat plain greek yogurt with 1/2 a container of blueberries, some agave nectar and 1/4 cup fiber one cereal.

    another idea is to make a protein smoothie the night before and drink it in the morning. i do that with designer whey vanilla powder, fresh strawberries and 3/4 cup of skim milk. i usually also have 1/2 cup of fiber one with this too. if you prepare it the night before it really is fast, lol.

    Eggs. Omelets, scrambles, egg muffins (prepared in advance and reheated), anything really. Protein's a great way to start the day and eggs cook fast.

    hard boiled eggs, you can make them ahead of time so they are ready to go at a moments notice:)

    +1 for eggs; low in calories, high in protein - they'll keep you feeling full longer and there are lots of different ways to prepare them (and the yolks, contrary to conventional wisdom, actually promote heart health and HDL levels)

    I pre-make Breakfast casseroles on Sundays, for the following week. I just made one with egg whites, sauteed mushrooms, ham, cheese and green onions on top. Great left over, just zap them in the morning and eat them with lite Sour cream.

    If I'm not eating the Casserole I eat Egg Whites with a 1/4 cup of 4 Cheese Mexican Blend and a little pepper for breakfast and a piece of fruit. Takes me about maybe 5min to make.

    1/2 cup greek yogurt, 3/4 cup granola (my go-to is Bakery on Main cranberry pecan), a handful of fresh raspberries and blueberries. YUM!

    Ezekiel toast with natural PB and sliced banana is my fave. Protein pancakes--make ahead of time, freeze and then pop in the toaster as needed. And honestly, a lot of times, I just drink liquid egg whites from the carton mixed with almond milk for my protein. It works. :) Other ideas: whatever lean protein you have in the fridge left-over, cottage cheese, steel cut oats (not quick, but can be made ahead of time), cream of wheat.
