The only meal that I actually get stuck on… Then again I'm not a big breakfast person but want to see what everybody else eats

    I'm looking for ideas for breakfast that I can make on the weekrndendd then just grab and go before work. Sassymama66 I think I'm going to do the jard boiled eggs next week. I have apple oatmeal muffins for this week.

    Make ahead freezer breakfast sandwiches or burritos, Mcmuffins, make ahead frittata/egg muffins like these quiche cupcakes or sausage cheese and egg bake.

    My personal recipe - breakfast burrito
    Sauté onion, pepper, mushroom, spinach. Chop 8 slices of turkey or center cut bacon, and crisp. Cook 8 scrambled eggs, and mix all cooled ingredients together. Lay out 8 large high fiber/low carb burritos (like La Tortilla Factory smart and delicious line or Ole Wellness High Fiber). Divide mixture amongst 8 burritos, top each with 14-28g cheese of choice, and roll into burritos, folding in the sides. Lay seam side down on cookie sheet, and freeze. Once frozen, transfer to labeled freezer bag. To serve, microwave wrapped in damp paper towel for 2-3 minutes until thawed or microwave until thawed and crisp in a pan or under the broiler. Options: add in cooked potatoes, vegetables to taste, sun dried tomatoes, jalapenos, hot sauce, or any other preferred fillings. Can substitute 2 egg whites for each whole egg.

    I've been making these simple frittatas and eating 1/4 per day at 140 calories per slice. I keep swapping out the vegetables.

  • My current go to breakfasts I'm loving.

    -Smoked salmon, 1 whole egg two egg whites scrambled, with chopped spinach
    -Bagel with scrambled egg whites and lean bacon
    -Or if I'm in a rush/ a big meal planned for later either bran flakes and vanilla cream protein shake instead of milk. Or half a portion of museli, whatever yoghurt I have in the fridge and some waldens caramel sauce on top.

    I've been doing PB&J Overnight Oats. Easy for a quick escape in the morning and good to eat cold. I'll usually pair it with a Quest bar, some String Cheese or something else. Plus my coffee!

    1.00 tsp(s), Sugar White, by Cup
    0.32 cup, Quaker Quick Oats
    0.50 cup(s), Almond Milk Unsweetened
    .5 tbsp Chia Seeds

    Add these in the morning before I leave and after shaking up the oatmeal:
    1.00 Tbsp (32g), Organic Peanut Butter Crunchy Salted
    1.00 tbsp (17g), Sugar Free Strawberry Jelly
    20.00 grams, Protein Granola Dark Chocolate (12-2-14 Cac Edit)
  • I have barely any imagination for breakfast so this thread is very helpful. :) I just put 3 tbsp. of malt o meal, 1 tbsp. ground flax seed and 1 tbsp. light brown sugar in a mason jar, when I get to work I use the hot water function on the coffee machine stir and wait 10 minutes and then voila! :) Otherwise I take a baggie of Raisin Bran Crunch and a mason jar of milk (probably not that healthy though). I also throw some ice cubes, almond milk, a banana and 2 tbsp. of skippy natural peanut butter into the blender and there's my breakfast smoothie. :) I really have to rush in the morning which is why there's nothing too extensive in my breakfasts.
  • I love green thickie smoothies in the morning. There are so many variations I dont get bored.
  • All of them! Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day. This morning I microwaved 1/3 cup large flake oatmeal with a tablespoon of powdered milk, a tablespoon of currants, and a cup of water. When done I ate it with a half cup yogurt. I had two tablespoons of pumpkin seeds on the side.
  • this week I'm trying to eat more veggies so I made a frittata. I should get 4 breakfasts out of it
    in a 10" no stick skillet:
    1/2 sweet onion diced sauted in 1t butter
    add and cook till soft 1 yellow summer squash diced
    then, fill the skillet w/ spinach and wilt it.
    add 8 eggs beaten and immediately take it off the heat
    bake 300 degrees for 30 minutes. cut into 4 big wedges.
  • I like to make coconut flour pancakes, egg white French toast, egg muffins and overnight oats!

    Egg muffins:
    (Makes 6 - approx. 103 calories each)
    5 eggs
    6 slices of pre-cooked bacon
    Desired veggies (I used green pepper and red onion)
    1/4 of milk (I used unsweetened coconut milk)

    - Preheat oven to 400°F
    - Line baking muffin tray with bacon strips
    - Mix 5 eggs in a bowl with milk
    - Pour eggs into the muffin tray space
    - Place chopped up veggies into the egg mixtures
    - Place in the oven for 18-20 minutes

    I store them in the fridge and they are quick and easy to make, plus you can grab-and-go in the morning! WIN WIN!
  • Don't feel like you have to eat breakfast if it's not your thing.
  • Chia pudding.
